ATEi

*Experiment*
The G***k 17L has a machined "void" in the slide directly under the left hand screw when milled for a direct fit optic. Keep in mind that the left hand screw is the long one and all we will have holding the optic on is the right hand screw which is the "short screw" with less thread engagement. Also, NO LOC-TITE!
Question: Does it really need 2 screws to be reliable, keep the optic mounted, hold zero, etc?
We're going to find out.

P.S. The hole that I cut in the slide on the left is for the "plug and weld" that we normally do for slides with a void. This will be done after the experiment has run it's course.

There's regular FDE and Coyote (HRS) available from Trijicon. We offer FDE PVD refinishing for slides. What works best? Let me show so you can decide for yourself!

The top slide has a regular FDE RMR, the bottom has an RM06 HRS (G19X color). Both are paired with our FDE PVD finish.

Have you ever had an optic screw break with a pocket milled by ATEi? Legit question! Know why? The pocket is what takes the G forces of that slide cycling. The RM01 and the pocket took the abuse for YEARS, being racked off things hundreds of times. The screws never failed, the slide just broke. That's the durability of the ATEi Tight Fit pocket.
