    Dan, you are going the want the spot where you under cut the trigger guard to be smooth. The stippling there eats up the top of your middle finger knuckle.

    Looks good though.

    Good point, I didn't think of that. I guess I better do it before I give TraderDan his dremmel back. Thanks !

    I took off the finger grooves, straightened the grip hump, and undercut the trigger.
    Feels really great. It's the first Glock where the simple act of gripping it doesn't irritate me. Lol.
    Only problem is that now, I'm not sure how the magwell and beavertail are gonna work, which is fine since this is a carry piece before anything, and since my hand actually fits now, and the angle of the blackstrap has been corrected, they're not necessary.
    Next are the trigger, mag release, slide stop and barrel. Possibly sights, and mag baseplates. Maybe a laser?
    Anyway here it is:

    Thanks to TraderDan for the dremmel!



    That came out nice. Congrats

    Agreed! I put some grip tape on the underside of of the trigger guard on my G34 when I was working on getting it setup the way I liked it. It only took me drawing about 10 times for me to pull it off in a hurry.

    Ardiemus, very funny and rather true, the feel of it is all that matters.

    BigBulls, Jeep, I smoothed it out, now I'm wondering whether I should round the front of the trigger guard, but part of me says "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" although it might help with re holstering, but if I take much more material off, the frame will end up being no more than a floppy condom for the magazine.

    GLOCK generation "D" it feels great, and looks good too. It was a super job for the first try, now the second one will be even better!

    Thanks TraderDan! Call me crazy, but I'm thinking about your buddy's offer on the 17, just so I'll have something else to stipple. Not really though, the 19 will be much easier to carry.

    I did take the stippling up a little higher tonight though, looks and feels even better IMO.

    LOL you sure do know how to basterdize a Glock! you need to stipple the CT to mathc

    Are you serious about the stippling? Because I do like to stipple things now. I just figure it'll murder any resale value the laser might have down the line, and probably any warranty. I am tempted though.

    Hey, she ain't pretty, but she does feel good. We've all been there, haven't we fellas?
