I finally did it...

[Cpt.Flan]

After a while asking myself if I would stipple my M&P I finally decided to go for it.

Took about 2 hours. Easy to do. The only regrets I have is not done it before now. Grip is now amazing. I did not want to do the back straps.
I did the sides and front portion of the grip instead. Under the trigger guard and some squares on the side of the frame.

I did some research before doing this. Everything went well. Totally worth it.

Cheers.








Not done by a professional but I think the result is great. It feels great and that is all what really matters.

Looks great. You don't see 9L's very often. But, if it was me, I would have tried the Talon Grips before stippling the frame.

how did you do that.

 

[jackrabbit000]

Stippling is usually normally done with a with a soldering iron.

ive often thought of doing this.
this summer i put skate tape on my M&P and i loooooooooOOOooOOooOOOOOooooove it, which is making me want to stipple it even more now!

may have to commit to it this winter.

Radiused and undercut the trigger guard.

Very nice. Looks very clean, and professional. Well done.

Why not the back strap? That's where most of your gripping pressure is applied along with the front strap.

It looks nice, but overdone in my opinion. There were several spots that you will find may lead to hang ups if you wear shooting gloves while operating this pistol. Specifically the sides of the frame, trigger guard and mag release. Just my nickel's worth.
