I checked with Carne but their 12 months out
im planning an Atlas Athena-style build with Gans, when he slows down a bit.

Yes you need to have it engraved. On both of mine, I have my full name, then city, and state. All that’s needed.
mine are located on the inside top of the trigger area.

And yes, it runs my favorite ammo just fine...115gr Tula Steel Cased ... lol

Was that with a completely unfit top end? Ignoring the good price, that's crazy fast.

Gary is amazing and that gun is gorgeous. Congrats!
Thanks man! Those pics dont it justice. Ill post more tonight. Trigger is consistent 1 lb 14oz.
Running a few hundred more rounds this week, then disassembling and off to @evolutionarmory for full DLC.
Gary is the best...like I said...in less than two days of receiving parts to him, he fit, blended, tuned everything, and test fired for $620

Spray it down with Hornady one shot?

From a box of parts (atlas, egw and cheely) to a complete race ready gun two days later…
Gary Natale of Gans Guns in PA is pretty amazing. He’s built three previously for me.
This is the first one with mostly Atlas and Cheely parts as well as a steel grip.Less than the cost of a staccato p duo.

if you are doing the whole package from PM, keep in mind that their forward serrations are VERY sharp. So if you rack from the front you will cut your self.
Thanks for that
I dont mind the sharpness as I have pretty tough hands, but I could always take something to them if need be to break the edges a bit.

I personally love my shadow 2, but that’s probably not in your price range unless you save for a bit longer or find a decent deal on a used one

The optic manufacturers tell us they want a slight gap forward and aft, so the slide isn't transmitting 100% of the force and momentum into the optic. A little clearance is a good thing.
thanks teros!

Yup all direct rmr mounted. They measure your optic to make sure it is within the tolerances of their milling cuts.
from a few pics Ive notice there’s what seems to be cylinders visible from the side of the slide. I assume those are some sort of proprietary mounting solution to allow the rmr screws to grab more threads in the slide cut?

These are on SP01 Shadow and posting them for your reference. The first one was done by CZCustoms and the second one was by CGW. Both sit on plates but the one milled by CZCustoms sits much closer to the top of the slide. Advantage with these two companies is your not tied to one RDS.
CZCustoms makes a plate with rear sight if you decide to take the optic off and shoot irons. They make them for both SP01 and Shadow 2.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for this!Unfortunately the extra space in front of the optic is what lead me to not want a multi optic mount.

Primary Machine
Have 3 slides done by them all perfect and fast turn around
Are yours not running a plate, simply mounted directly to the slide? -
Looking to have my shadow 2 machined for an optic (either a dpp or rmr) and see there quite a few “methods” of getting the dot to mount to the slide.
I’ve narrowed it down to:- Primary Machine
- Cajun Gunworks
- Fire for Effect
Ive seen a few methods in which there are clearly exposed threads from the mounting screws.
Does anyone have experience with any of the above shops?
-
Highly recommend Gary at Gans Guns. Great work, quick turnaround, and good pricing. I’ve had three guns by him now. 1 open and two limited 2011s

All is good
