got me a wood burner for hobby lobby.

need some harder plastic to pratice on. my sons legos ar too soft and dont give me a rough texture ( that i hear every one talking about)

so if you know of something i can use from a Lowes or home depot to praticeinceon (that is cheap) that is similiar to a handgun or a p mag it would be appricated.

Thx

A2 pistol grips are great to practice on.  The majority of AR owners have a few extra laying around since they don't fit anybody's hand and are usually replaced with something else.

If you have left over parts from an MIAD grip, that would work.

AR pistol grips, standard plastic handguards, Pmag dust covers, MIAD spare parts, take off pistol grip pannels, food container tops, etc.

You can actually use Lego.  Just touch it very lightly and for a short period of time.  I suspect you are letting it sit a tad too long.  You don't want the stippling to be so sharp as to cut your hand.  You are just creating texture with high and low points.  The low points allows moisture from your hand to go somewhere and not cause it to be slippery.  A bunch of fine holes actually works pretty nicely.  Most people do patterns mainly for cosmetic reasons, not because it works better.  In fact, very simple, very ugly stippling works very well.
