So I decided to bubba my Glock

[Beniw765]

My Glock 19 , I repeat MY GLOCK 19 , has become my favourite pistol despite some ergos that I thought were not the greatest. I've been poring through Glock mods all over the forums and love what Salient Arms have been doing to Glocks big time but I'm not willing to drop 800$ in mods on a 700$ pistol. I decided I'd do it myself. So I used a dremel to relief cut the back of the trigger guard to allow a higher purchase on the pistols and took out some of the underside of the trigger guard also to allow a more comfortable support hand grip. I've also stippled the underside of the trigger guard and small patches on the side of the frame to improve grip. Turned out pretty good I think and only took me a couple hours.

Nice job. I dont understand why some people complain about others guns, no one is forcing them to look at it.

Nice job on the trigger guard.

Thinking about getting one.
which sights are those?

That ain't no bubba job! It looks good and has a valid purpose Well executed sir/madam

 

[Can-down]

A little deeper on the undercut then I would have gone but it looks good! Might as well stipple that grip as well.

 

[Beniw765]

Thanks All ! It dose serve its purpose, really helps me properly index my support hand and gives way better traction. Also raises my fingers on my strong hand a quarter of a inch which makes a world of difference in how much better control it gives. I honestly thought I'd mostly get flamed seeing how people get upset about stippling and such.
Thanks for all the kind words

One thing about the Canadian version of the Glock 19, you can't bubba it worse. Just kidding, nice job. It improves the looks, IMO.

I really went by feel and went slow , constantly " trying it out for size" and feeling for what would be hot spots.
I have rather large hands.
I've ordered some grip tape Talon grips , give those a shot first before stippling the entire grip.

I applaud your courage in putting a dermal to your G19, you saved enough money to buy another if you choose. Looks very good sir!

Custom fit .....
A snap on beavertail might help if your web is getting close to the bottom of the slide and they look pretty good to me.

 

[Beniw765]

The slide hasn't bit me yet but I wouldn't mind trying one out for the feel.

 

[Can-down]

I haven't tried one but they make sense if you have large hands and are pushing the limits of a high grip.

His gun he can do what he wants, what I and others laugh at is when it shows up on the EE for Retail price lol.

I was always against stipling glocks. However, I do love the RTF2 grip and they are hard to find, so i may get a third gen stipled. However, i dont have the patience so I may try these guys who do a good job.

Too late !!!! Wtf ! I think I love stippling , today was my first go at it and it do have some Talon grips on the way but that soldering iron was just calling to me lol , here's the first panel. Decided to go with a design. Had my wife print it off for me and I traced it on with a # 2 pencil. I'm happy with how it turned out. More to come

that's a good job! I just don't have the patience for it lol.

I'd screw it up lol.

Looks good OP!! If I ever get the idea to do that, I'd likely send it to someone with a steady hand and get a simple maple leaf put on it.

 

[infidel29]

that looks awesome! Although I would have just thinned out the entire rear portion of the trigger guard myself. not a fan of the trigger boob look, but I love the punisher skull.

 

[Santoneski]

Looks great guys. Question tho. The part of the trigger gaurd that was shaved down. Is it Going to be weak now? Cause it looks super thin now. What are you guys using to stipple?

The trigger guard is still really stiff , not sure how "strong " you need a trigger guard to be. I don't plan on trying to drive nails into boards with it but I can press into it till my knuckles are white and still solid. As long as it does what it's supposed to do , as in keep things that aren't fingers off the trigger I'm happy. Using a soldering iron to stipple
