Grip Stippling Thread

[Pyzik]

Btw, how do you like the MFT grip. im looking/deciding on a grip for my upcoming pistol build and was looking originally at the K2 , as i want a more vertical grip, and wasnt sure how they compared to magpuls or others? Ive only ever used magpul grips.

I also mess around with Kydex. Started making some holsters and mag carriers.

But to answer your question, I am not sure yet. I have only used Magpul MOE grips and the standard A2 grips. It feels thicker in my hand and I am not sure if I like it or not. When it is attached to the lower I get better and more consistent trigger finger placement.

I am gonna have to wait till the build is done to run some drills before I can give you a solid report.

Since you've used the MOE and A2 grips, is the MFT more vertical?
I've been himming and hawing about ordering a new grip too (K2) and didn't know about this one. If it's of the more vertical flavor it looks nice.

Good job on the stippling too. I like it.

I personally don't feel that it is that much more vertical and looking at it, it doesn't look to be that much more vertical. It feels different that is for sure. I will have to finish the build and run some drills with it for awhile to have an honest opinion about it.

Here is a quick pic of the three lowers we have:
Top: S&W M&P 15 with MOE grip
Middle: Umbrella Corp with Hogue Overmold grip
Bottom: Northtech Defense with MFT grip

Yeah, it's looking about the same.

I really wish Hogue would come out with an AR grip with the same angle as their AK grip. I love their AK grip.

Cool info, thanks guys..

I hate to keep side ttracking this thread, but anyone got a few grips they can shoot next to eachother or like above.

Looking at the difference between the

K2 - umbrella corp 23 - against moe/miad grip

Thanks for the link,bookmarked it for later as they have some cool stencil kits, would of made painting my wanna be kyrptec pattern so much easier, then a cut out piece of paper held on...lol

Damn $50 for the grip...too much for me....but i am a DIY kinda guy anyways and have been playing with my sons wood burner on some pmags....or maybe a certain member...BC... would help me out here...

First thing I every stippled circa 2012. Still my favorite stippling job.

Shewt man, I have enough of a waiting list and I'm too short on time to charge much less than $50 for a job like that!

Not bad at all! Especially for a first attempt.

Its no problem man, some things just came up and my toy money probably went backwards..

Decided to get off my butt and celebrate the 4th by filing down my g19 frame. before and after shots.




I worked the trigger guard undercut a little more and evened out the front and the back, but I think tomorrow I'm going to get some rough grit sandpaper, staple it to a piece of wood and even everything out 100%. That being said, I'm pretty happy with the way the project came out. Makes a surprisingly big difference in how the frame feels in my hand.

Now I just need some high-speed milling on the slide

schambers, that looks really good. I really like the smaller stippling patterns. Looks professional!
