After seeing all the pics of everyone's stippling jobs, I just had to do my 40c!

I stippled one of my mag sleeves also. The kydex definitely takes a different touch with soldering iron!

I chose to use a random pattern on the grip and horizontal stripes on the frame and trigger guard. I may not even have to order a new back strap!



EDIT: New pics

Looks good! 8)





I'm one of the few who's too big of a puss to take a soldering iron to his own gun.

I tried a dozen different styles and techniques on my extra grip straps before I dove into the real Thing!

i might just have to get some extra back straps now!! I really like your gun, turned out very nice imo.

good work

I will be getting a soldering iron pretty soon and will be experimenting as well, if mine turns out half as good as yours I would be pleased real good job-Jason

I like it...

I highly recommend NOT stippling the bottom of the trigger guard where your middle finger rests..



Just a tip.

I see what you're talking about. I'll see how it feels at the next range trip.

It shouldn't be a problem to mill the area smooth if it is too uncomfortable.

I am in awe.

Re-work

Well, I hit the range today. After 200 rounds, the only thing that needs retouched is the trigger.

There is just one very sharp spot right at the tip that needs smoothed out.

I could feel the stippling under the trigger guard but it wasn't irritating at all.

All in all, I am extremely happy with the results. I don't think my grip could shift no matter how sweaty my hands get!
