Welcome to Alpha Dog Arms Custom Glocks.  We specialize in Glock modification services such as Slide milling, Optic Milling, Laser stippling, Cerakote and Laser engraving. Look no further for the premier Glock modification provider in the North East United States. 

Our Equipment

 Hurco CNC Machines Hurco VM10are used for all of our milling operations and Keyence Laser Engravers for all of our frame stippling and engraving.  The combination of this equipment dramatically increases our accuracy and control over traditional manual modification techniques.  

Glock Laser stippling

You will find that we have many Glock stipple patterns to choose from, however, you can also have us create something custom for you.  Perhaps you have a logo you want embedded into the grip stipple?  No problem, we can do that.  Are you looking for a retirement gun to commemorate a retiring LE officer’s years of service with their badge or patch engraving?  We do those all the time and you’ll be amazed at how much detail we can achieve in small engravings.  Our Glock stippling is amongst the best in the industry.  We achieve a level of precision and accuracy unobtainable with traditional hand stippling, therefore, our Glock stippling looks as though it came from the factory.

Glock Optic Milling

Optic milling is the perfect addition to any Glock slide.  Our optic cuts enable direct mounting of your red dot optic and eliminates the need for failure prone adapter plates.  Our direct mount optic cuts also ensures that your optic sits as low as possible, ultimately reducing the need to very tall suppressor sights to co-witness.   Whether you want to use a Trijicon RMR, Holosun 407/507/509/EPS, Aimpoint or other optic, we can mill for your optic.

Be sure to check out our work samples from our Gallery page to help you visualize the Custom Glock possibilities.  From mild to wild we have you covered and all under one roof.

What People Say

“I’ve never been a Glock guy because they looked so generic. Alpha Dog stippled my frame and milled my slide and now I can honestly say this is my favorite gun.”

Matt Cote

Matt Cote

“I had Alpha Dog Cerakote my tired, beat up M&P45 in a black multicam with an embedded American flag.  It turned out amazing.  It went from sitting in my safe to the #1 gun I show people.  Thanks for the great work guys.”

John Cummings III

John Cummings III

“Had you guys do a complete makeover on my brand new G26.  Laser Stippling w/ logo embedded, slide milling, control cuts, undercut and Cerakote.  This is, hands down, my favorite EDC.  I am simply amazed at the level of detail you achieved in the custom stippling. Fantastic work!”

Joe Pitasi

Joe Pitasi

“The stippling on my Glock 48 is amazing.  I was concerned that it may not have an aggressive enough texture for my sweating hands, but I was wrong.  Micro Battle weave for the win!”
