    Slide milling for red dot

    I want to get my slide milled to allow low profile mounting of a red dot (e.g. Deltapoint Pro). Does anyone have a recommendation for someone who does this service for 1911s?

    To be more specific, I need someone who will mill the slide on a Kimber 1911 with a Shwartz style firing pin safety. It will be a range-only gun so I do not have any concern with eliminating the firing pin safety. If I understand this correctly, removal of the firing pin safety from the slide is required when you mill the rear of the slide down that far - there is a hole that currently is only covered by the rear sight so leaving an opening under the red dot is not new. People apparently remove the Shwartz safety without problems, so it seems this could be done. I just can't find someone who has done it.
