Stippled my first Gen4 Glock today

[seedubs1]

Wow that looks time consuming. Each one of those little dimples is a separate jab of a wood burner.....

That is some of the best stippling I have ever seen. Dare I ask how much that runs? On a Glock 21SF Gen3 perhaps?

Glocks run $100-full size / $85-compact / $75-subcompact. Same for XDs, M&Ps are a little more.

how much for a M&P Shield?

Did my first FDE frame today. Like the OD frames you've got to be careful not to scorch the polymer as it discolors easily.

I was wondering about the FDE since my G22 gen4 is one. Looks good. I just need to find someone that has this done and would let me shoot a few rounds to see how I like it. Not a big fan of the gen4 texture and have a sleeve on it. and since it is a different color I would be interested in this option.

That's some great work phylodog! That PM9 has really got me thinking. I've got a CM9 that I feel like I grip well enough, but I'm afraid to handle one with the stippling. haha

If you do it, get the grippy index finger portion, it's awesome. If you'd like to hold mine sometime you're welcome to. Like i said, i shot a friend's pm9 and I no longer wanted to shoot mine. I was way more accurate. The smaller the gun the better the results in that arena. This is all purely empirical by the way, but it worked for me. I also had my Pm9's feed ramp and takedown pin polished to a mirror shine as I have to maintain a level of awesome that requires a lot of money as i hate to be outdone.

If i could only have one gun stippled, I would rather have a stippled "pocket gun" than a full size gun just for the accuracy improvement. That tan glock looks amazing though, so after the pocket gun I'd do the glock just to make it look cool. I also prefer Phylodogs method of stippling as it's grippier without being uncomfortable. I shot a glock 27 done by him and a glock 27 done in that scalloped texture. Again, i was more accurate with the stippled 27's than the non, but the scalloped texture was killing my hand after 10 rounds. In another thread i mentioned it was like death gripping Jean-Claude Van Damme's glove from the movie Kickboxer...Unpleasant.

ouch..and ugly

ouch..and hideous

ouch...and lame.

SUCCESS

THAT IS SICK!!! I might have to have my G21SF done... You do amazing work!

Looks like I better get to saving!

Heard the 4th gens are having problems?

 

[Mango]

That's impressive. Big props.

My experience with the Gen4 G22 pistols involves 1600 of them firing around 750,000 rounds of ammunition. So far we've found one bad magazine.

No problems here.

I would LOVE to handle one. I have been tempted to ask phylodog to do my Glock 19, but I'm nervous if I'll like it or not....

 

[lovemachine]

On the tan/FDE, how long does it last? How durable is it?

 

[phylodog]

The frame is molded with FDE polymer so it isn't going anywhere.

 

[Sirshredalot]

Super pro job!...If I had a polymer gun, Id have you do it to it.

God bless

If we weren't so far away I would love for you to do my g17's frame and remove the finger grooves. Very nice looking work!

 

[phylodog]

I'm steadily trying new stuff all of a sudden.

A member here wanted his Gen4 G19 stippled but he uses the large backstrap. I've not done a backstrap before and was concerned due to how thin they are. I took it slow and kept it shallow to avoid passing through. Now he'll be able to shoot it like this or remove the backstrap and shoot it without as well.

This makes me happy.
