....is a pain in the butt! :eek: -Tim

AK, The short answer is yes. You can definately stipple the seam and it will not only make it basically 'disappear', it will also eliminate the slack you are talking about. The only reason I didnt with these, is they had very little, if any, of that play, and also I don't know if you could...

AK, Those look great! Very similar to some of mine.. -Tim

Thanks guys! I have about 3-3.5 hours in this set. Creature, I sent you a PM. -Tim

Hey guys, I just finished these up the other day. Just wanted to show them around a little bit before I send them off to the new owner. The texture is about like the sandpaper-grips, but not quite that aggressive. These won't tear up your clothes to CCW with. I just removed the 'smooth'...

Thanks again, guys! Halo, I appreciate it, but Carl is right. The M70 comes with black plastic pistol grip. (Not the one that century put on there, though) I have one on order with a guy from a different forum, who makes an exact replica of the original zastava handgrip (probably even...

Thanks guys! I appreciate all the feedback. As to theimport parts thing, It is my understanding that these M70AB2T's from Century come with more US parts than actuall needed anyway, so I don't think switching out one parts will make me non-compliant. Halogrinder, My camera is a Nikon...

Ok guys, I got this rifle a couple of weeks ago, but felt it needed a few changes.. It is a Century gun, and I just didn't really think the black plastic furniture looked 'right' I think the wood handguards just look a bit more 'authentic' I guess :scrutiny: Anyway, I got a surplus...

Hey guys, Just finished this one up for a guy on another forum. It's very 'grippy'. I think this stippling stuff helps more on these little guns than on the full-size ones.. Any critiques welcome :) -Tim

Hey guys, Sorry, as I'm sure you've already seen these on all the other boards I visit. (I'm a gun board whore. :D) Here is a fellow's G23 that I did this week. I left the Glock logo on this one.(unlike my last one) This particular fellow likes the finger grooves on his guns...

Dakota, Handgun bullets use hemmorage as the primary method of incapacitation. The comparison was not that bad. Rifle bullets will not exit alot of the time, because they are going so fast, they shred themselves, where a handgun bullet will stay together. ETA: I would also go with a...

Whats up guys? SF party over here? :D -Tim S.

I appreciate it, guys. DFW, Unfortunately, no, I am in Alabama (Birmingham). Cocked, I have run into that before, but guess what? Save the shavings that you grind off the front of the triggerguard, and if you hit a void, those shavings can be melted into the void with a soldering...

Thanks DFW! I am abou to start on a fellow's Gen 3 Glock for a stippling job, rounded triggerguard and mag cutouts. He wants the finger grooves left in place, though. Then a standard XD 4" after that. -Tim S.

The latest in my (hopefully long) line of projects is a friend's Kel Tec P-32. There will be a subsequent thread about this gun and a possible refinish job in a little while.. I think that this stippling helps even more on these pocket pistols than a full size. -Tim S.
