**UPDATE on Page 4** Addicted to Customizing Glocks...2nd and 3rd projects underway
Just piece them together. So easy to work on. On Friday I picked up a LNIB Glock 19 3rd gen for a whopping $250. It was a good deal I couldn't pass up. The low price automatically put me into project mode. Over the weekend I ordered
Last night I got home from work at midnight and got busy with the dremmel and soldering iron. Good bye finger grooves. The rest of the parts should all arrive Thursday. I should have a range report then.

Man, looks like a pro's job, there. $250 for a G19? Who could pass up on a deal like that.

You gotta love a glock. That's a good one!

I looked it over real well to make sure it wasn't broken at that price.

Glocks like Legos? Don't think the Glock will hurt as much as a Lego when you step on it barefoot in the dark

Great looking soldering iron work.

Man that is a beautiful stipling job.

Yeah, for $250, I'd have had to take that home too. How do you like the no finger grooves grip? I haven't had the nerve to take a dremel to one of mine.

Thanks guys. The no grooves feels more natural to me. I didn't have the stones to attempt the the guard indexing cut. I did stipple the underside though.

Dang $250?? Love it, then you spend twice that on upgrade,lol. Sounds like something I'd do. That's really the great thing about a glock, just build exactly as you want it. Nice upgrades. How do you like the zev barrel?

It doesn't arrive until Thursday along with the other parts.

Normally I hate the looks of people's stipple jobs on Glocks but that looks awesome!

Looks great! I have been tempted to do the same to my older Gen3.

Nice job and great score. I have been wanting to do a little texturing on my Glock grip but am not sure I trust my self. A lot of members here are quite talented.

If you have a 320 that's the easiest way to practice. Mess up and just buy a new grip module
