Have you guys checked out Bartso's Stiple its pretty aggressive but expensive as usual.

Snail50 · 08-16-2007, 02:38 PM

Here's a (gasp) G26 I just finished...

I'mGatman! · 08-16-2007, 05:42 PM

The stippling looks good, bruh. It's the gun that looks like a$$.

Very nice work. And you're right, it does a lot to make the G26 look better...and I'm sure ergonomics are significantly improved. I know you want one as a bug, man. Or maybe a 27?

Snail50 · 08-16-2007, 07:56 PM

I took the G26 to the range tonight (with the owner's blessing), and it's much easier to hold onto now.

I also got to test-drive Omi's XD that was the subject of this thread, and, dare I say, I enjoyed it. He slipped his XD full-size into my range bag while I wasn't looking, so now I have to do that one as well.

And wouldn't you know, I got a couple pics with my camera phone of Omi in flagrante with a Glock 17.

Will be up for sale later tonight ...

Hey Omi: how long you think it'll be before Ben surprises you at the range with a stippled and worked-over xd45 of his own? Actually, chances are probably better he'd go .357 sig...

Well I will say he shot mine tonight and did a VERY impressive group. He also looked pretty pleased with it.

I think when he shoots my tactical .45 after he "works it" he will be in the market for one.

Your XD compact was certainly enjoyable to shoot, and there's no question it's accurate. Trigger is smooth, but I don't care for the heavy break at the end. Once you get the trigger job, I think you'll have a superb package.

ETA...the photos of you & the G17 will be for sale as well.

Wow. That looks very good. Clean and small stippling.
How much to have it done and where?

Snail50 · 08-18-2007, 05:35 PM

Thanks Freedom. I'm not currently an FFL, so I can only accept work shipped to me in-state. Price depends on the gun: sub-compact; compact; full-size.
