TerryYu Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 So I am considering pulling the trigger on a VP9 for SSP/prod shooting but it has been stippled. The grip I believe is legal but there is stippling above the trigger guard where the thumb rides. Pretty sure that is illegal. Is it possible to smooth out that part of the frame enough with some sanding/filling to pass an equipment check at a regional match or is the gun done for the moment the frame has been touched?

Mully383 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 (edited) You would have to check out the prod rules as far as where the stippling is since you didn't post a pic. But you can't unstipple the gun. Maybe someone talented could get it unnoticeable but would it be worth it if someone did notice at a big match. I know they loosen the restrictions on carry optics as far as what can be stippled. So the gun might not be a total lose for uspsa Edited November 22, 2016 by Mully383 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MemphisMechanic Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 But a different VP9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryYu Posted November 22, 2016 Author Share Posted November 22, 2016 Thanks for the advice. The seller sent me another photo and it was worse than I thought. He had literally stippled every single surface (including the mag release!) on the frame so I backed away from the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreGarciaTAT2 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 It's a shame when people ruin them with overzealous home stippling. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
