I love the look of this slide work, but have no idea who does it. Does anyone have an idea?
Anyone know who does this slide work? I'm in love I think

Do a Google on custom glock slide machining and you will get more hits than you can look at in an evening.

Could be JL Machining works. But it could also be about any of them. In the lower right corner there is some initials or something but they have been cut off on here. Google them. Or go back to the original image and click on it to see if the option of going to a home page comes up?

Click on the image in the Cerakote gallery and it will show who did the coating. A phone call to them would probably be a good place to start.

No but when you’re out in the woods it will look like you’re shooting bullets out of your hand.

The lightning cuts in the slide allow not as much lubricant being needed for the action due to less reciprocating weight. What that does is in turn allow the gun to raise its RPMs due to less drag. Will it be machine gun fast? Well that's up to your finger and how light and tactile the trigger is. The vertical serrations not only help in press checks but they also help in cooling the slide due to the raise in RPMs.
So more accurate? If you don't limp wrist it like a ******.
Shoot faster? Definitely

Mad Custom did it. I messaged them asking if they did the slide.
Josh from Jacksonville, NC, United States is who owns/owned it!
"I couldn't be happier with how my project turned out. Thanks to David and the crew for explaining the process and getting it finished. Pictures don't do it justice!"
Josh if you are out there, come on man...Spill those beans!

When I put the "Rocket Racing Fuel" sticker on my car, it got an instant 10 horsepower boost. So yeah.......

The lightening cuts in the slide have nothing to do with lubrication, They reduce weight in the slide. The slide only gets it's lubrication at for points, on which the manual says gets a drop of oil.
The slide gets the same amount of lube from those points regardless of how fast you pull the trigger.

:rofl:
Serrations such as this one serve one primary purpose - they look cool. All this talk of "less drag" and "cooling" are a repeat of advertising.
My degree in engineering is from Washington University - where's yours?

One plus side of the slide machining, as I was told by several shops I talked to,(I'm not an engineer, nor do I play one on the Imternet) is that it compensates for weight added if having the slide cut to add a RMR, keeping the overall slide weight close to original so you can use the same weight RSA in many cases.

Looks like a Landers weapon systems slide job. Like their range master package
