    I was bored today and decided to try my hand at stippling. I chose a few PMAGS for the try. Anyone try this? Love to see what any of you have done. Gotta say that it really did make the mags very grippy! (is that a word?)

    are you taking orders yet?

    Oh hell no! lol It took me about an hour to an hour and a half for each one. The process is a little too tedious for my short attention span. I do really like the end result, though. If I could find better tips for the soldering iron I might do the rest of my mags. For now, I think I am over my curiosity.

    tap ... LoL

    I've been wanting to do some stippling for a while but I'm a perfectionist and could not image holding the iron steady enough when the tip is 4-6" from the handle. The thought occurred to me tonight to put the iron in a vise and only handle the work I was stippling. :cool:

    I have not watched any YT vids, maybe I will. Nice work BTW.

    Ive done multiple pistol grips for rifles/shotguns, and an AFG. Once you get in a groove it doesnt take long I did an entire A2 in an hour or so and I melt pretty deep I like a really aggressive texture(itll take skin off)0
