Below are my latest creations. First attempt is my M&P9 (front and back strap) and the second attempt I completed a couple of nights ago with my Glock 23.
The G23 took about 4 hours to complete and the M&P took only an hour. I will most likely go back and complete the entire grip on the M&P and I will post pics when that is done.
I’m pretty pleased how both turned out and I welcome any feedback. Thanks
M&P9
G23
Looks great man. 
Nice work, looks good!
Stippled glocks have always looked like fat ass to me. But the M&P with its texture borders, is a natural for stippling, and I haven’t really seen a single bad looking job on an M&P.
This one looks like it has a colony of bot flies living in it. 
Good job. Both guns look great!
That one is pushing it. Looks like the surface of the moon, or some corral reef. 
Looking good. I’d like to see more shots of the S&W.
Your M&P stipple job looks really nice. It looks like it was molded in at the factory and not added later like most of them do.
Could you imagine using that gun in a real training class and trying to get the dirt out of it later?
As requested
and for sh*ts and giggles a family pic
One more of the G23
Thanks. Looks great.
Nice looking stipple job.
What tip did you use on your iron to get that pattern?
Dead skin is way worse than dirt. My glock gets pretty nasty after a while. Hot water, Dawn, and a fingernail brush cleans out stippling in just a minute.
