Gunsmithing Grip reduction question.

[burkeknives]

Before I ask, I want to say I have looked over the net, and found the most common answers. I would like some good info on this from the guys here that have already done this.

What is the best material to use for creating the beavertail extension, and filling the cavity in the grip, on the Glock, for grip reduction?

It is my understanding that when using the Acraglas for fill, then grinding down the back of the grip, it will not stipple well.

Thank you.

Maybe marinetex...

Re: Grip reduction question.

Marinetex is what I use.

If the grip is to be stippled I don't remove all of the polymer as even marine-tex doesn't stipple well.
If the grip is to be textured it's not a problem.
