Please Note: This is a machining service only. You are sending us your slide and in some cases your optic as well — the optic and slide are not included with this service.
Our cuts are precision CNC machined to exact tolerances using our cradle cutting method, which keeps the footprint intentionally tight. This ensures your optic locks in solid with little to no movement once mounted.
When applicable, we also add precision-cut recoil bosses. These help direct the stress of recoil into the slide, not just the screws — giving you better long-term reliability under heavy use.
Whether your setup is for competition, duty, or everyday carry, our optic cuts are made to hold up to serious firing schedules without shifting or loosening.
⚠️ Important: After machining, the cut exposes raw metal. We strongly recommend selecting one of our coating options to prevent corrosion. If you choose “No Coating,” you're accepting the risk of rust or finish damage from moisture and exposure.

Trijicon optic cut
Vulcan Machine Werks delivered a top notch product in the timeframe given when I dropped off my Glock 19 slide and parts for work to be completed. Customer service was easy to talk with and answered any and all questions I had. I would highly suggest and refer Vulcan Machine Werks for anyone to use who is looking for accurate machining and gun smithing.

RMR Cut and Install
This is the 2nd slide Vulcan has cut for me. Both slides have been exceptional. The Coating was perfect and Turn around time on the most recent slide was outstanding. I can’t recommend Vulcan enough.

Glock 34 Slide Cut
After close examination of the milling and the coating, the SRO fit perfectly...and they provide the 6-32 screws for direct mounting. It took longer than initially mentioned, but well worth the wait. Beautiful machining and coating work.
