Grew some balls and stippled my Glock 17

What base pads and where did you pick those up?

They are Taran Tactical Innovations extended base pads. Obviously they don't allow for extra rounds because #canada but they add a much better grip when doing mag changes, and they lok BA. I just have some Agoge Tactical Regimen stickers on them. Fit nice. They are not cheap though.
 
Looks good! I've stippled all my polymers. It really should come factory that way. If the manufactures came out with stipple frames people would be paying a premium for it. I've sold a few stippled pistols and I've gotten top dollar for them so ignore those comments about devaluing the gun. If it's done right like yours people will be paying a premium. Good work!
 
I'm not a fan of stippling. To me it destroys the value of the firearm. That being said, its still your firearm, and if this is what suits you, fill yer boots! I'll agree that its a fine job, as we've all seen some real horror shows.

Thank you! And exactly, I've seen some pretty horrendous looking stipple jobs but ones done right, IMO are worth more. I know some guys locally are interested in having it done. I should just meet them at my local club and stipple all day for $200 per head lol.
 
Totally. This will always be in my possession. So why not make it unique to me. I don't care if it reduces the value by half
It's worth more than ever to me at this point.

I know right! Hear everyone say "Oh man, now you'll never be able to sell it!!!" Umm I don't ever plan on selling my super custom special to me Glockenspiel, thank you very much.

And awesome! I was thinking about going the RMR route, but honestly I want to keep this thing Irons. If I ever get a G34, i'll build a race gun with an RMR or something on it for IPSC.
I'm waiting for my next match then i'm shipping the slide off to Blackbox Customs for some front serrations added, a tri-cut of the whole slide, and a Cerakote job. Much excite. And then i'm finally finished this gun.
