Stippling That Actually Improves Your Shooting
A properly stippled grip gives you a positive index, recoil control under sweat or rain, and a frame that feels custom-built for your hand.
01
Aggressive or moderate texture across the front strap, back strap, and side panels. You pick the level.
Grip Texture
02
Clean, defined border lines around the textured zones. Looks intentional, looks pro, holds up to use.
Border Work
03
Multiple stippling patterns including ball-tip, sand-paper, and basket-weave. Each gives a different feel.
Pattern Selection
04
Trigger guard undercuts for a higher grip and better recoil control. Standard on most builds.
Undercuts
05
Reduce the grip circumference to better fit smaller hands. Common on Glock 19/17 and Sig P320 builds.
Frame Reductions
06
Smooth out factory finger grooves on Gen 3/4 Glocks for a cleaner, more universal grip.

Our Process
How Your Stippling Job Gets Done
Stippling is permanent — there's no undo. We take it slow and confirm everything before we touch the iron to the frame.
01
Consultation
Talk through your platform, the look you want, package and your desired end look.
02
Frame Prep
Frame is degreased, masked, and pattern is laid out with reference marks. No surprises.
03
Stippling
Hand-stippled with a soldering iron and the right tip for your chosen pattern. Slow and deliberate.
04
Final Smoothing
Edges cleaned, debris removed, frame inspected, and reassembled if needed before pickup or return shipping.
