Who is your favorite stipple shop?
Name says it all. Who do you like for custom frame work on polymer pistols?

Cold Bore Customs

They've stippled two Glocks for me- a G17 and a G26. Nice work.

If I had a frame or grips to be done, there are a few companies I would send it to, based on the quality of work,although they can be pricey and take a long time. My favorite overall for quality,practical application and overall appearance is by Sonoran Defense. They do an amazing job with their laser stipple and "2 tone" texturing. A friend of mine had one done and all I could say was "WOW". It felt great in the hand and looks like a piece of art.

Shopped for grip reduction and stipple work with parts for a Glock 19 a few years back.

It was cheaper to buy a complete frame from Salient.

My favorite was Polymer Refined but he closed up shop. Based on everyone else's recommendations, I sent my last one to Cold Bore Customs. It's great. Trying to get permission to send my duty gun but hitting a wall.



Not minority enough!

Boresight Solutions has remained my go to shop. Expensive and not super fast but superb quality, long experience, and certain things, like building grips up, that others don't do.

I've always done my own. Then I get it exactly how and where I want it.
Easy to do, just go slow and direct.

Yes, and yes.
Kent at Polymer Refined was incredible. Great work, great price and fast! I want to say it was about a week turnaround. He used to be on here pretty regularly, but not since he closed shop. I hope all is well with him, and he gets back to business soon.

A few friends got their Glocks done at Cold Bore and liked the work too.

Agency Arms for me.

Interestingly AIM Surplus got into the laser stippling and all reports that I am seeing, things are looking quite good.

Yes and know many others who have.
He is local, retired PD, and a good fella.
My 320 will be going there whenever I get around to deciding on what to put on it.
Leaning toward an EPS but we shall see.
My only gripe is he only does Cerakote.
