Put it in the oven and heat to 300 degrees for 25 mintues. When done serve with mash potatos and gravey..I don't know????

Thanks, I thought it was 350 for 35 minutes.

I hate to say it, but for that info, U need to ask on Glocktalk.

About a month ago, some guy posted pics of a Glock he did himself. U would probably get your answer there. I like the stock look myself, but many people there have the guns like that.

I’ve searched Glock Talk and have not had any luck in finding out the “other” method. I guess I’ll just keep searching. I’m looking at this not as a cosmetic thing but practical thing- ie. comfort,et.

I think if U posted your own question there - U might have luck. (even if you can't find a past message there in the search box)

Good idea. I'll do it.

Thanks

Hey tnoisaw..........Send me your 23 and I'll try my woodburnin' set on it. I've never done one before but I've seen several and I did stay in a Holiday Express (or whatever) last nite.

Riiiight. (said like Dr. Evil)

Hey, I am running a special -- During the 3rd week of September, I am doing free chainsaw stripling on Glock frames. Come one, come all - Send me your Glock, and U will be amazed

I don't know anything about how this might be done, but to me it looks more like it was carved with tools rather than done with a heat source.

Please let us know what you find out.

Did I stumble on to our "PSYCHO THREAD ", every one knows you serve fries with a Glock not smashed taters !!

I think he said stipple not cripple

So far I have not got an answer. I posed the question on Glock Talk but evidently nobody knows or it's such a secret that they can't tell me or else they'll have to you know what.

Sorry - I do remember seeing a pic of some guy who did it himself.

I found this on Glocktalk. It is done with a heating Iron.

Pick a place to start, and count your strokes. Start with one row/spiral and stagger then in equal dots. For the grip panel, I lay the iron sideways and do a push/pull kind of thing ( like welding ). It's really simple, but time consuming ( about 4 hours per gun ). I also stipple the bottoms of my mags, It works awesome.

The side/hobby job comment is funny, I had an IPSC match yesterday and I came home with 6 extra guns for stipple jobs ( $75 a piece ). Extra Christmas money I guess.

Again thanks for the comments.


Also, practice on Walmart plastic 16 gal. containers. They are about 4 bucks, I totally covered one before I touched my Glock.

I think someone pushed to hard in that stippling project.

Finished. I went with the drag style of stipple for two reasons, I think it looks a little more exotic, and since it was my first time to do this I thought there would be less of a chance of burning too deep into the frame. I chose to do this to my Sigma since it is not a main carry gun, ( mostly range and backpacking gun ) and it is not the worlds most actractive gun anyway. I would not have done this to any of my other guns, because I think stippling is kind of cool looking but also seems a little impracticle to me.

I did practice first on my CRKT Kasper tactical knife that is also in one of the pictures below.

I marked the handle where I wanted to do the stipple with a pencil then used a heat pen at a 30 degree angle to push in and drag, trying not to make the lines straight but tried to get them to run into each other and sometimes having to restart a line halfway down to make it look more random. You have to be carefull not to hit the logo if you want to keep it, but other than that it was that simple. I used a 400 grit wet dry sand paper to go over the grip to smooth it out.
For the mag well cuts I use a cutting wheel on my Dremel tool, cut a small V in at the base of the grip then switched to a sanding wheel and rounded it out. Then sanded the slide with 400 grit wet/dry sandpaper then went to 600 grit then metal polish using a buffer wheel on the Dremel tool. The slide still needs a little polishing but that will give me something to do while I watch Sin City Sunday night.

Interesting... U are braver than me - I never would have attempted anything on my guns. My hands are not steady enough and that's not a type of skill I possess...
