FInished up an XD40 for a friend.

Here are some pictures of my friend's XD40 that I finished today. Stippled grip (backstrap and sides), and polished chamber and feed ramp.

That's an excellent stipple job! Care to share what tool you used?

Thanks! I made a special tool to make my specific pattern of stippling, and used a propane torch to heat the tool.
