Just got some Stippling on my XD-45 C ... - Page 3 - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Looking at it again, he did a FANTASTIC job. That came out great. I guess that's what happens when you let a detail-obsessed gun-o-phile touch your gun.

He removed the original raised surface area and the original stippling. So it did make it a little thinner.

Not a fan of the stippling, but your's is one of the best I have seen

Ha...I have a feeling he's gonnna end up with a lot of work. I think he's done at least 7 guns now, not including his Glocks and the one he traded for that Kimber. Good for him. He gets to fondle more guns, and we (people in SoFL) get good, meticulous work done to make our pistols fit our hands better. I bet he's dying to shoot that .45 now that he's worked on it.

Can you believe dood owns Glocks because he thinks XD's are ugly? Glocks? Wow...

Btw, Omi. You should post these on ArfCom as well. And can you tell where to find information about becoming an instructor?

+1 on both points.

Thanks for the compliments, folks.

Omi, I'm really glad you like it. I'd be happy to do the next one for you.

J, Omi's gun was my 11th or 12th (can't remember off the top of my head), but my first XD. Yes, my first couple of Glocks were a learning experience.

(but shank you very much for bringing it up...cawk)

No fun sneaking up on us like that in our own forum, Ben. Omi and I both know you secretly want an xd45 compact. Don't worry. We won't tell your Glock buddies.

actually, it gave me a sense of perverse satisfaction to tear into that XD with my Dremel...
