Glock Stippling Question...Edit: Well I finally did it

[PlatoCATM]

What benefits do you experience with the underside of the trigger guard stippled? I'm trying not to get carried away.

I have seen this recommendation as well. Except it was specifically limited to texturizing the fore section of the trigger guard where the support hand made contact, while undercutting the trigger guard and leaving it smooth to get a bit higher grip.

I undercut the trigger guard with a dremel and smoothed it, now I have to grow the balls to begin stippling. I would not want the section of the triggerguard where my middle finger rests to be stippled though. Grip be damned, that would shred my finger.

The stippling under the trigger guard allows for the support hand to roll the pistol into the main hand. By gripping the fore finger under the trigger guard, you are able to keep a more solid purchase on the frame while shooting quickly.

By stippling where my support hand thumbs rest in a thumb forward grip, it not only gives me an index for my thumb placement, but also allows for somewhat of a downward pressure on the frame for stability.

Again, dont go overboard, start small and in places where you feel texture is lacking. Some do it for looks, but to me a gun, especially a Glock, is a utilitarian tool.

WOW! Great job there!
