Does anyone know of a reputable guy that can drill some holes?

I had Mark Housel at L & M Precision do my Sig P226 Legion RXP for a Holosun 508T, but I hear that he may have retired recently.
Me too and I heard the same. Amazing he couldn’t find someone to take over his business
And Mark was the GOAT IMHO, wish him well.

I had SAS tactical do my mk25 RX slide. LONG turnaround time, but they did good work.
If it is an rxp, I believe you will have a gap as it’s footprint is larger. I know c&h makes a plate that fills the space for a p320 and they will also drill the necessary holes, but I don’t know if it will work on the 226.

I ordered the CHPWS plate after speaking with the owner, and when I received it, it wouldn’t fit the 226, so save your money. Yes, there’s a gap, which bothers me frankly, as I don’t like the idea of just 2 screws being the only thing supporting the optic. But I really prefer the Holosun reticle to the Romeo Pro, so I’m keeping it on for now.
I would love to get a 226 slide direct milled for a 509T, as the optic is enclosed and it seems to me that the mounting interface would be significantly stronger than using screws and bosses to secure the optic.
I agree about the pro. Sas tactical only charged my $50 to drill holes on my rx, but it does not have the gap. I know he said he would do an rxp slide, but you would have a gap.
I have an rxp slide for my 229 legion as I did not want to mill the legion slide, and when you catch a sale on a rxp slide it is almost a no brainer. I am surprised that no one is making a plate to fill the gap on p2xx slides. The c&h idea is a good idea because it still directly screws into the slide.

Thanks guys
Still wondering if there is a better solution or someone doing the work.
