I'm trying to find someone who offers barrel dimpling.

I have a G19 factory threaded barrel I wanted dimpled

Is this even possible I saw zev released dimpled glock barrels very nice but I wanted to
Have a factory glock threaded barrel dimpled any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'm curious why your looking for this? Is it just for aesthetic purposes or some type of performance?

I figured it would help with looks and performance

Check out the zev dimpled glock barrels I love the look and always liked dimpled barrels

In what way do you think it will help performance?? I am not aware of any of the barrel cuts doing anything other than removing metal and looking cool

So do it for looks

I'm fine with just looks even if that's all it does I can't seem to find anyone who can do this service though.

As for if dimpling I've read it does help with cooling if it does or doesn't I'm not too concerned with it

I'm more interested if anyone CAN do this or knows of someone who can ?

Also if it does matter it's more for aesthetics Im having a window cutout done on my slide

That's cool, just wondering. I thought about that after too, that you wouldn't see it unless you had a cutout. I've seen the dimpled barrels on rifles, for looks/heat dissipation/ and lighter weight. I didn't even know it was a thing for pistols. I'll look up the zev. Make sure to copy me in on some pics if you get this done, I would definitely be interested in seeing.

From what I can tell only zev does this I just liked the idea of having it done on a factory g19 threaded barrel.

Other than  that I've only seen it done on rifles...if I can find someone to do it properly I'll definitely post pics

I'm going to try emailing a few companies that might consider it
