reminds me of Mr. Potato Head toys  it's the only way I'd purchase a glock gun , if I could personalize it to my spec's Safety, Situational Awareness and proficiency. Neck Ties, Hats and ammo brass, Never ,ever touch'em w/o asking first | |||

I totally agree with you on the ghost gun thing. I understand the why but I work in LE and it feels too hinky to be associated with. | |||

I've shot a Salient, and yes, its NICE! Super NICE! Just not worth the price point for me. (And I can't use it for a duty gun) I carry a G-21 on duty, and the G-19 for pretty much everything else. I did the trigger jobs on all my Glocks, and do think it helps. I got my stippling job & trigger guard on my G-19 done by Polymer Refined, and was super impressed with the job & turn-around time. The -19 just fits my hand better after the job.

What did you do to the slide of the G19? | |||

^^^^Thats ones of the 19s that had a blued slide and said semper fi on it in gold. I think lipseys had them if I remember right. At least i think i see the gold writing looking at it. | |||

For me it’s the combo of barrel and optic with a better trigger. I haven’t shot any of them off a bench but at 20-25 yards free standing with out support I can easily shoot and fist size group. At 10 yards or less it’s one hole about the size of a baby fist. _______________________________________________ Use thumb-size bullets to create fist-size holes. | |||

So I picked up the base gun today and started the build. It took me about 3 hours from start to finish. Using the RTF frame made prepping the frame for stippling easier...less to sand off.  I tried something new with these modified accelerator cuts...cutting them more vertically. Feels great in the hand.  Used a fine tip for a nice tight stipple   The before  The after         I will get it to the range tomorrow for some testing.This message has been edited.

Nice work. I wish I was patient enough for that kind of detail work on the stippling. A Perpetual Disappointment... | |||

Not sure how I'd never seen the accelerator cut mentioned before, I can see how that might be beneficial. Nice looking work. __________________________________ NRA Benefactor I lost all my weapons in a boating, umm, accident. http://www.aufamily.com/forums/ | |||

These are off the recent run of Gen 3 non-fishgill guns. Still widely available. They are a dime a dozen (for right now.) I have 2 more on the way (19 and 17 RTF2 frame’s only.) https://www.budsgunshop.com/ca...k_g19rtf_9mm_15rd_fs _______________________________________________ Use thumb-size bullets to create fist-size holes. | |||

Did you fill the plug and do a frame reduction? It sure look flat on the back. I like it. | |||

That looks awesome! I like the smaller details like channeling the takedown lever. Looks like the grip reduction was in the works also. Sweet! I've never tried a Suarez trigger. Let us know what you think.
I had found a Salient frame and started from there as my budget allowed. Somehow the Salient trigger is made from pure CNC magic.  | |||

Those ZEV slides aren't really my cup o' tea but I do admire your stippling work. For your next one you should consider doing a cut-down Gen3 G34 or even a G17L! A ultra longslide G26 might be too crazy but one in a G19 size would be rather spiffy. | |||

Years ago when the "You will buy a Glock" thread started I laughed and thought, "When hell freezes over!" What I've seen done with Glocks in the last year or so has completely changed my way of thinking. I know now that I WILL buy a Glock. Sigh... | |||

While I didn’t chop it I did pick up this 17L today. I had an extra 17 frame sitting around so I stippled it. The factory frame is untouched. It has Suarez tactical trigger with the factory (-) connector and a 4lb striker spring; makes for a really nice trigger pull. The Burris FF3 is on a Strike Industries GUM mount.

I am not a Glock guy, Not much of a fan at all. I don't dog on them, just not my thing. These though, are great looking, I bet they function as good as they look. Congrats, thanks for sharing. | |||
