Philip Dedmon Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 In your opinion,,,,, who does the best USPSA Production legal stippling on Glock pistols? Photos and contact info would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beltjones Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Good question. I stippled the bottoms of my magazines, and it was enough to know that it's a job worth paying someone to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legacy Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 I gave my Glock 22 the complete Accurate Iron treatment by Mike Cyrwus. I love the grip stippling, Mike is super busy these days with 2011 and shotgun builds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDPMatt Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 I did my own with a $20 soldering iron and a couple hours.... It ain't perfect but it was priced right and the turnaround time was awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

okc icore Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 i agree with cdpmatt that its easier to do it your self just get some practice plastic and a soldering iron and start burning plastic tell you get the burning to a consistent pattern its not hard just a little practice and patience and you will be a pro to i ask a gunsmith how he learned this is what he told me hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jswitt99 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 (edited) If you want to send it out, Cold Bore Customs has done some nice work imo... I did my own also. Practiced on some extra 870 stocks for 5 min. Really easy, just have to have patience. Matt- Nice job. Did you do grip reduction also? Heat method or fill and grind? Do you find your thumb getting raw with the stippling all the way up the back strap? Edited July 29, 2011 by jswitt99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDPMatt Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 (edited) I just stippled it without reducing or filling anything. I have a G21 that was reduced and stippled by Southpaw customs and it's nice. A buddy close showed me how on his G35 and he double undercut the trigger guard and it feels nice as well. As I said it isn't perfect but for $20 it turned out pretty nice in my eyes, besides it'll sonn be covered in pro-grip anyhow Edited July 29, 2011 by CDPMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDPMatt Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 as far as my thumb getting raw, I haven't shot this gun yet at all as it was new in the box but my G21 is done the same and it's awesome.... my Open 2011 has a rough Get-n-grip and I love it. I guess you could say I like it rough.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jswitt99 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 here is my homemade job to help the op realize he can do it... I did grip reduction (not completely flat but comfortable for me) and removed the finger groves. Feels like brand new gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inkballedtarget Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 I have been thinking about doing this myself and have been looking into the matter. I found this thread last night with pretty detailed instructions/photos. Maybe they will help if you decided to give it a go! http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=67691&st=0 Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob D Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 +1 for Mike at AI. My G34 is amazing. It looks good, and once you lock down on it the gun can't move at all. I'll be taking my G35 limited gun to him in the next few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Tischauser Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Is the Internal magwell done my Accurate Iron legal for USPSA Production? It is an internal modification to the trigger if anyone asks. Seriously though it should be legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serevince Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I raised the beavertail area, raised the area under the trigger guard and removed the finger grooves. I did a little at the time and would grip the gun and get a sight picture in between. I love the feel now. It is literally custom fitted to my hand. After I stippled, I hit it with a sanding block until I achieved the desired "bite". You can remove a considerable amount high in the rear of the grip, lower down you would need to fill prior to shaping. There are plenty of videos on Youtube on the process. I practiced on some spare AR grips trying to get it pretty, but ended up just doing a random stipple. While I do like "pretty" weapons, this is my EDC so it doesn't matter.

Chad C. Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 I'll third the suggestion that stippling is a completely feasible DIY project. If you're looking into doing it yourself, the tapered chisel tips usually work better (in my experiences) than the standard non-tapered tip. David Bowie (based up here in OH) does nice looking work for the poly-framed guns- stippling, grip reductions, et al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a.roberts Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Is the pistol in Chad C. post USPSA Production Legal? Other than the extended mag release, I'd say yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad C. Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Philip - the stippling is Production legal. Just for clarification, the stippling is one of my DIY jobs (90mins and $15 soldering iron), not one done by Bowie's shop. As far as the magazine release goes, I'm in the process of swapping for a OEM part which (if I understand the rules) is legal for Production.
