FAQ

Stippling is traditionally making small indentations into an object to add traction for handling. As of today it has evolved into modifying a Polymer grip by removing material for ergonomic benefits as well as applying a heated tip to create a design or pattern for grip texture.

Once we receive a certain amount of orders we will close the books to the public allowing us time to give those clients who placed an order our full attention. Once we get down to a lower amount of orders we will open the books on the website to the public.

We are not in the business of overwhelming ourselves with orders in the sense of Greed. We want to be flexible and fluent with our time for family, church and friends. If we take on too many orders then we are setting ourselves up for stress and an unhealthy work environment. I do not want my passion to turn into hassle.

A SPOT FEE of $100 is made to secure your spot. The client ships their order to the shop and once the clients spot is approaching for completion an invoice will be generated for the remainder balance. The payment will need to be completed prior to the order being shipped back. The Spot Fee does not reflect the final invoice. Please note: The client has 7-10 business days to ship their order in. If the client decides not to move forward with shipping the order in or goes past the 7-10 business days the process is voided and the deposit is non-refundable. Essentially you are taking place of a client that would have followed instructions and wastes valuable work time.

The All-In Package is a flat rate package where the client can opt in/out of modifications and create their ideal frame job.

The Enigma package is an authentic STIPPGRIPS design where we remove all factory markings, cerakote the frame and then lay down patches of stippling.

Yes. If you want to have the Enigma package and still have the factory color then it will still be cerakoted to mimic the factory coating.

Removing material under the triggerguard to allow for a higher grip purchase and aiding in eliminating the common "Glock knuckle" which also allows for a more natural trigger pull. The Double Undercut is where a second area is removed and textured for the support hand.

An Index Point is the most forward of the frame typically sitting in front of your takedown Slide release.

This is where we cut out a partially angled ledge and then flatten out the area of the Index Point allowing for the support hand thumb to lie to help mitigate recoil.

This is where we cut out a fully angled ledge of the Index Point allowing for the support hand thumb to lie to help mitigate recoil.

This modification is where we remove material around the Mag release allowing for a more pronounced purchase when ejecting a mag. This modification can and only will be done on a Gen 1-3 Glock frame. It is not offered to the Gen 4-5 frames considering the design of the mag release.

Material removed above your trigger reducing the amount of material around your trigger hole allowing your trigger finger to sink more into the frame.

This is where we reduce the Bottom of the frame where the mag feeds into to accept lower capacity mags which also allows for more concealability. The lower capacity Mag will need to be provided by the client.

High Tang is where stippling goes up the rear of the frame. Low Tang is where stippling rides down leaving the web of your hand free of stippling.

Each project goes through a prep process where all factory material that will be either polished or stippled. This does remove material and reduces the size of the frame for a more comfortable and custom feel.

We like to focus on full grip work. A La Carte modifications are not currently offered.

The stipping is not "Aggressive" but abrasive. Each frame will go through a smoothing process which will allow for the client to edc the gun comfortably IWB to skin.

This is where we prep a frame and have it cerakoted. Once cerakoted then we cut out borders to remove the cerakote and expose the natural color of the frame. All of the exposed areas are then stippled completing the two-tone look.

Stippling can be a drawn out process that is not rushed or forced. We typically will need a full day to complete a frame. Lead-Times will be covered below.

Lead Time is the amount of work we have in the shop that will be completed prior to getting to your project. Lead Times will vary and be subject to change considering production is a one man operation. That one man also has a family, church and a recreational life that is important for him to balance in a healthy manner. So if you are not patient and you blow up the line of communication then it will take longer to complete projects because we are having to take time to respond to emails/phone calls.

If you are local or would like to travel to the shop you will need to schedule an appointment to do so.
