Grippy Cheekpiece

[Adam B]

Here is my version of the DIY grippy cheek piece for a PDC chassis but I am sure it will work well for other cheek pieces

Step 1-acquire plasti dip spray, I picked mine up from Homedepot

Step 2-Prep your cheek piece, I roughed mine up with sandpaper and cleaned it with alcohol before coating the part

Step 3-Coat the cheek piece, I used several coats, allow it to dry 4 hours before applying additional coats

Here is the finished product

Nice! Does it set up rubbery or tacky?

not really, no more than you would want it to be

3M makes a tape intended for stairs that works really well for "grippy-izing" rifle cheekpieces.

It is rubbery, texturized, and gray. It comes in 3" widths and most good hardware stores (home depot too, I think) will sell it to you by the foot... Runs about $2/foot.

Takes/holds paint pretty decent too. I had my doubts about it starting to peel, but it doesn't if you scuff up and clean (acetone) the stock before sticking it on.

This is after ~2200 rounds and a year in service, showing it NO love:
