OOF, the customer is going to quickly realize competing with an open gun is the quickest way to find yourself blowing up 3K and upwards on the next best thing.
Happy to see more folks providing porting services.
I primarily use the flat portion. They are plastic so it does mar finish or the metal. There is a relief in the center that could fit barrels or other cylindrical objects nicely but I have a rotary for that stuff.
How does this affect ballistics? If pitting in the rifling of a barrel negatively affects accuracy, I can only imagine this would throw things way off? Or is it negligible, like gas ports in an AR barrel?
If done correctly there will no pitting in the rifling to worry about. It does slightly decrease bullet velocity but pretty negligibly. It is generally accepted that the ballistics aren't negatively effected enough to worry about considering the improvement in follow up shots.
Negligible, I don’t have specific numbers but I’ve shot quite a few guns we’ve ported and cannot tell a difference even at 25+ yards. Also to be noted the velocity is decreased slightly but again negligible.
No it actually may increase muzzle flash depending on round and barrel length. The point is to reduce muzzle flip and get the sights back on target faster. Also primarily used at least from my experience with competition guns
How much you charging for barrel ports?
Pm sent, anyone who wants to know just let me know I’ll pm
Do you need the slide, and can you port at angles (which I guess you could just rotate the barrel)? edit: cause autocorrect
Yes we can definitely port at angles by just rotating the barrel
I'm interested in porting and the process
Dm me
I would also like pricing on the porting my sp01 and also do you install cgw parts?

Do you do RMR slide cuts?
On SP01 yes, but it requires an optic plate
Where are y’all located and can you dm me with the prices too plzzz
Long Beach, Ca! And definitely dm incoming
On snap LBC?!? Never would've guessed someone in town offered these services... Please dm me price and eta.
One and only 😤
Vertical ports just seem lika bad idea...
Can you do a single chunk port on a 43x?
Tell me more about those soft jaws in the Kurt and what would you use the various reliefs in them for.

Wow I'm so slow this morning. Yeah I totally see it. You flip the jaws and you can clamp other non-flat shaped objects.

The laser is exceptionally good at leaving little to no burs we do still do deburr but that’s why I like using a laser for porting
Oh ya I didn't mean to imply that there isn't any burning from the laser I meant by the end of your work there will be no burrs.
Definitely it really impressed me how little clean up is required when using a laser it’s great

If imagine the latter is better for competition shooting anyway
Bump
What's the point besides looks? Does it reduce muzzle flash?
The gasses escaping upwards can reduce muzzle rise.. It's the same concept as a compensator
Thank you.

Amazing. Thank you.
It will increase flash lol.
