I under-cut the the trigger, rounded off the trigger-guard and took off factory texture (and sort of accidentally reshaped the grip, but I like it). What do you think?
There's a lot of melting of the polymer frame.
Be careful not to compromise the integrity of the frame.
Not sure , but me thinks when you raise the grip texture, the material has to be coming from someplace, which may create thin spots. Are you adding polymer material ?

you really don't go that deep to get the texture you want. you barely go half as deep as it looks. The first thing I practiced on was a Magpul MOE grip and I went way to deep it looked bad and would not have been structurally good for a pistol however magpul grips are quite thick so I think that thing is just fine although ugly.
the biggest concern I have with what I have done would be the under cut of the trigger (which feels awesome). that is were any material is really taken out. I tried to stay a little thicker than the most extreme undercut jobs I could find from people that have a reputation for doing good work.
I have a former Navy friend who is an absolute Transformer's nut... Should see if I can gift him something like that with a Transformer or Decepticon emblem on it!
