Chris, I just wanted to express gratitude for the incredible work you did on my slide. As a fellow machinist the attention to detail and quality is above and beyond. You’ve re-kindled my love for this handgun. Thank you 1000x I will always keep you in mind for future projects. Or recommend you to dear friends.

Chris is the man! I've looked every where online to find someone who can do slide serrations cut on a specific part of the slide. Chris is the only one who's able to do it! Though lead time is a bit long, his work is immaculate and well worth the wait! I am beyond satisfied!

After viewing his terrific website In February 2022, I reached out by email to Chris Richardson, owner of Fabricated Arms in Virginia, to explore the possibility of having him mill my Sig Sauer P365 9mm and mount a Holosun 507k-X2 electro optic red dot sight on my gun. I'm an extremely detailed man so we set up a time to discuss the project over a phone call. Chris impressed me with his respectfulness (always calling me "Sir") during the call. It was very easy to order the work that I wanted done on my Sig P365 and pay for it on the Fabricated Arms website. I shipped my slide along with a new Holosun 507k-X2 red dot sight to Chris using the USPS Priority Mail and $900 worth of insurance in a small flat rate box. Chris mentioned that it would be several weeks before he could work on my project and that timing was fine with me.
When the milling project and red dot sight installation project was completed, Chris sent me several emails stating that the work was finished and being shipped to my home. Chris provided a USPS tracking number so I could track the delivery.
My finished P365 slide arrived today - March 28 - approximately one month after our initial telephone conversation. The finished P365 slide came with the Holosun 507k-X2 red dot sight nicely mounted in a well-packed USPS small flat rate box. As my attached photos illustrate very nicely, the workmanship was excellent - exactly as advertised. I was very excited to immediately zero the Holosun red dot and clean the slide.
In summary, Chris Richardson does outstanding work and is very professional, easy to work with, and extremely fair with pricing for his gun milling and modification services. I give Chris and Fabricated Arms my highest recommendation - 5 Stars. Thank you Chris for your excellent work! Eric

All I have to say is wow! Chris did an amazing job! Guided me through every step. He was transparent and communicated often during the entire process as I shipped from Minnesota. He responded to every email even through the ordering phase and million questions I had ? I really highly recommend. The work done looks absolutely amazing.

Emailed Chris to discuss options for some custom mill work on my XMacro as well as some custom cerakote work. Chris was more than patient in answering my questions, sending my photos for reference, etc, etc. He helped explain shipping and insurance recommendations as well.

I have not received my slide yet, as it was only sent a week ago... however, good service and quick responses are hard to come by so I felt compelled to leave this review to support his great business and help others get his great service.

Thanks Chris!

I sent my slide to Chris for an optic cut. He was easy to communicate with and his work was amazing. The optic cut had a perfect fitment for my 507c and the cerakote was spot on. I can tell he takes pride in his work and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for work done right.

Could not be happier! I have a gen 5 glock 35 and Chris was able to put raptor cuts, cerakote it and install a red dot site
