I've decided to keep the full size DWX over a Staccato, but I want to have the slide milled for an optic.

I'm a big fan of irons and I'm not going crazy, but for a gun that I hope will eventually let me do some competitions, I want the optic option.

I've seen places offer the EPS milling that will allow me to keep the rear sight.

Recommendations appreciated.

Nameless Armament.

They are reasonable in price, fast shipping and do great work. I have had several guns done by them. They also offer a great military/law enforcement discount on top of their great prices.

You can use the other more expensive places and wait 6 months to get your item back, but it will not be any better.

I have no direct knowledge because WA became a FU state for firearms before I pulled the trigger on a DWX, but I have been following threads about it. Know that upper portion is very narrow so unless the spot is centered exactly the screw threads may show. I've seen some horror shows from big names.

Primary Machine has a rep for doing great work on the DWX.

This is who all the USPSA cool kids use to mill their slides...
