    This has been posted in the handguns thread before and it does look good.
    The liberal see's the glass as half full and tries to take more.
    The conservative see's glass as half empty and tries to keep it that way.
    I'm with the people on the side just pouring water in the glass trying to get a drink!

      Agreed. That looks hot. What does WC charge for that stippling?

        Looks like they charge $139

          Is it aggressive / abrasive? (More than, say, Talon sandpaper--or something similar?)

          Any other work done you'd recommend? Turnaround? Pricing? Etc?
          I've had it done.


          Not sure how it compares to Talon grips. The texture/grit is more abrasive than a Gen 4/5 grip, but less than RTF2 (closer to Gen 4/5). Definite improvement over stock Gen 3 texture.

          No significant change in circumference that I can tell.

          I had the thumb pads done as well, doesn't cost too much more so I recommend it. You'll have to figure out what other frame or slide work makes sense for you. You can always have the more common/basic work done later, and perhaps elsewhere for less cost (and possibly local to you to avoid shipping). If you decide to go with the WC treatment, you will call them in conjunction with sending your order form in. They will then quote you the turnaround time and return shipping. The net shipping cost can be a bit steep depending on how you go about it, but overall I'm happy with the results and would do it again.

            I had the same thing done + a trigger undercut (no more Glock knuckle). WC is great to work with, from the product to the service. They quoted 4+ months for the work, and I had it back in less than 2 weeks.

              It certainly looks respectable comparing to the butcher jobs out there.

                One of the few stipple jobs out there that I think looks good.

                  Nice about time WC jumped into the Glock market. Two of my Glocks have the WC battle sights, I really like them.
                  Im a warmonger baby, I got blood in my eyes and I'm looking at you.

                      Will report back when I get them returned.
                      Nice, and having multiple frames done is a great way to mitigate the shipping cost.
