I'm not a fan of Stripling and could never bring myself to do that to a Glock but I have to say that is the nicest job I have seen. I like that you stayed to the normal area of the grip so it looks factory but still has a more aggressive grip. Trigger guard looks great also. I sort of get the trigger guard as it can rub you in the wrong place sometimes.
Great work. |

OP, that's the ONLY stipple job I've ever seen that I actually like.

Is it worth it? Very nice work. This is why they need a website...when SAI comes to mind most folks think holy shit a $3000 glock WTF?! Not always the case, mine is the base model (tier 3) with their top line internals (tier 1), except the barrel (still OEM). I got the whole tier "hybrid" package, gun included, directly from SAI for $1700ish, the work is incredible and totally worth it (my opinion). I couldn't be more happy with the finished product. The only gripe I have was the wait time. You can send in your shit for just the frame work or slide work, whatever you want, you don't have to buy the whole kit like I did. I sent a G19 off to them for just the full frame work like you see on my G17 pictured, for $250. |

I recently did my G26 and G19 both Gen 3. Used a fine point solder tip with very light touch. Tried to visually match the factory texture as close as I could and I only worked on surfaces that won't touch my skin if I am carrying concealed under my T-Shirt. The texture is very fine but adds an extraordinary amount of grip. I also did the base of one extended mag on my 26 but I left one smooth for CCW. On both I did a little patch in the Thumb Recess area and a little patch just in front of the take down lever. Also put some texture on the factory backstrap texture. G26 Finger Grooves... G26 thumb recess... G26 Backstrap... G19 Finger Grooves... G19 Thumb Recess... G19 Backstrap... |
|
These are group decisions and I'm gonna make 'em.
|
Only frame mod is an undercut. Made a huge difference for me. I used a trusty dremel tool

Those of you that have done this yourself, did you sand down the factory checkering or heat it up and flatten it out then sand?

For the 17 I cut the dimples off with a pocket knife and then sanded haha. Better just to use the dremel though. |
