After much deliberation and practice on old ar grips, I finally worked up the courage to stipple my g19c. Took about 3 1/2 hours to do, half of which had my hand cramping...

Sorry about that.. they're from my camera phone.
I used a 30 watt soldering iron and a couple different tips. The grip is a huge improvement.. I also took a little off the finger grooves.

Re: My stippled glock
On my Glock, I eliminated the rear gap in the magwell and stippled that part over. It gives a much better purchase to the grips. Nice job, but it sure sounds like very tedious work.

Re: My stippled glock
Looks pretty good. I've only had enough nerve to stipple the backstraps on my M&P's.

Re: My stippled glock
I'd like to fill in the rear gap and bevel it for better mag changes in the near future.

So you think you will make 100 before you get a time out??

Looks good. I bet its crazy grippy but the stippling under the trigger guard makes my middle finger hurt just looking at it.

Re: My stippled glock
I ended up using some pretty fine sandpaper and going over it to smooth it out a little bit, especially under the trigger guard. I'm thinking about taking a crack at another glock I own.

Re: My stippled glock
Looks good. I just got the courage to stipple mine myself about 3 weeks ago and will be doing all mine now.

Re: My stippled glock
Thanks. I definitely encourage anyone looking to do this on their own to practice on something else first (I used the old ar grips), because there was definitely a learning curve... or at least for me.
