Thought you guys might like to see my 43 now that it's all finished. All frame/slidework done by me, the cerakote done by Twin State Hydrographics in Claremont, NH.

Looks great!

Hey mattsdrag, your stippling looks like chain mail, you should call the pattern that.  Anyway, kudos to all you guys.  I am really impressed with how good everybody's texturing looks.  Just go back a few years and the majority looked amateurish.  Most of these look almost like they were done in a factory.

I've got a G43 on the way, but I think I like the factory texture enough to keep it.  I will undercut the guard and polish the trigger bar, that's pretty standard on all of mine.  I also did a grip reduction and texture on a G26, came out great.  But I think I'll leave the G43 texture as is for a while at least.

Thanks guys. The trigger undercut on the 43 makes a noticeable difference. I would highly recommend it.
