There seems to be a need for more stippling based work and are tired of the 4-6 month waits. So we are going to get our feet wet a little and see how it goes.Quote:

The MOE Handguard looks good and should grip pretty well I'm guessing.
Not only is this functional but IMHO I think is looks pretty good on certain pieces.
Good job Grant.

I have been massing around with stippling now for a bit, I started off with AR grips, because here in CA when I started 30 round Pmags were tough to get, w had to drive to Reno or buy them as a $30.00 "rebuild kit" but I had a hand full of stock grips. I have done everything form the normal little dots to what I call "Coral" because it looks like coral and it would cut
hell out of your hand if you aren't wearing gloves (its like Velcro with gloves though.) Anyhow I still haven't done any P-mags but I did get up the sack to do my 11-87 a couple months back.

How long you gents spending on doing one mag? I've got a ton of P-mags, so this exercise would involve a
serious time commitment. I also question whether this type of mod is going to effect the integrity of the
mag itself. OTOH, I believe the idea has some merit. There was a post, some time back on TOS about
cutting sandpaper or emery cloth to the exact panel sizes, and then firmly gluing them in place. Looked
pretty good too. Perhaps Magpul would do a factory stippled mag for us in the future; can't hurt to
ask.
The locations of the stippling are not subject to loads that would concerned me. To be honest, I imagine one could cut the areas that are being stippled out completely and the magazine would still be strong enough.Quote:

Before putting the heat gun to it make out a border with masking tape about 4-5 layers tall. This helps in knowing ahead of time where your marks will go but more importantly it creates a very nice smooth border. Not trying to tell you what to do with your own business but I did this to my M&P and it looks good. I'll try and post some pics tomorrow if you want them. As always good luck with the business!
