Default Stippling

This is my first try at stippling, so I decided to do it on my M&P 9. Let me tell you this gun feels great in your hand and shooting. Little to no movement. Also a pic or two of what I did to my wife's .25. What ya think?

Mike FIRST WELCOME to the group! Second if that is your first job man it looks real nice! I like the oblong holes vs the rounds holes commonly found. Great work

I think you wife should divorce you for defiling a firearm.

Nice job Mike - but even more importantly, has it added to your ability to control the firearm? If yes, then I'd say well done!

I am starting to see much more of this on Polymer guns lately and especially on Glocks. Some guys are getting pretty creative in their stippling jobs.

Yes it has added to the control tremendously. The gun sits nicely with no rotation or slipping. It allows for me to focus on regaining site picture instead of my grip.

I have a M&P9 full size and have been looking at stippling jobs. I want to do it myself, but really I don't know what I'm doing and I'm a newbie to the gun world.I have big hands and they can get a little sweaty. I think I need to get some stippling. Could you direct me on how to get started? Did you post a video of your stippling job? Thanks for the help.

Something to keep in mind if you carry or use it in a defense situation (and this is the sad truth of the liberal court systems today):
