Glock frame stippling

What's pros and cons of stippling a Glock frame?

Pros: a positive grip. No lazy hand sliding. Keeps you on target with accurate shots.

Cons:
Too much stippling can irritate your hand, which may hinder accurate shots.

I've found slight stippling in just the right areas works best for me.

Then again, we all have our opinions, so your mileage may be different.

That part seems to come with use. A good reminder, don't forget to get out to the range and use your Glock so you feel comfortable with it.

If you need to use it, you want to feel comfortable with it. I'm not saying you don't practice, just saying everyone should. You will know if it bothers you anywhere through use, IMO.

I used my Glock working patrol for 20+ years, and when your hands are dirty and muddy, crawling around in the mud in a rainstorm, most will find the stippling not enough. Use this gun at the range on a nice sunny day, most will find the stippling a bit too aggressive. This is why I like just a bit of aggressive stippling, but not all over.

Thanks for your opinion. Just curious, what areas did you focus on and are there any tools or techniques you used?

There are companies who stipple for you. They use pin point heating irons and can add a great design for you. I like my stippling accentuated only in the fatty areas of my palm.
