'It's a Glock, it's perfect', continues to change out every single thing that could possibly be changed. I love Glock fan boys. 😂 Sweet piece regardless.
Some people change parts because they can. The market supports Glock and some people have the money to invest in their hobby and some people hate, usually the ones who don’t have the money
I like the snake-like pattern. With the rough edges around the Glock logo on the left grip panel, I'd probably just go ahead and stipple that section too. And I would definitely cerakote the the whole grip to get a uniform color so that any rough edges between the sanded or stippled areas and the untouched areas would disappear.
Love the pattern. Love the lines. That Glock emblem though, especially because it’s green, looks very messy. If you just got rid of it and stippled over that as well it would be perfect. Just my opinion.
Tate Craft slowing it to 1/4 speed doesn’t help. It’s still pretty much worthless as a how to. If you are going to waste viewer time, why not spend 10-15 seconds showing the stippling for a small area then do 20x for the rest.
Nice work, however, the only parts you really need to improve the trigger is the lighter firing pin spring, a 3.5 connector and the rounded safety plunger with a lighter spring. About $30 in total.
Soldier For Christ Thanks. I’ve often wondered what it would look like with just a black slide. I need to borrow one my friends 19s and see what I think about it. Awesome screen name btw!
I gotta know.. What do you hunt with a 40 S&W?? I could see a 10mm being used for hunting but not it's neutered little brother the 40.. I will have to say that I also thought the color of the FDE & OD Glocks went clean thru.. Wow they are ceracoating them instead.. I also want an OD G26 but after seeing that the frame is painted I think I'll have to pass.. And now after reading the comment below I now know what you hunt with the 40 = Smart Asses..
Devin Hartlage thanks I appreciate that. Unfortunately I make my own tips for the pattern that you see in this video. However the gator pattern I use a small “chisel” tip laid on its side. I hope that info is helpful.
I have a genuine question: In a previous video, you used a wood carving tool to create one of the CLEANEST borders I've seen on any youtube video. Now almost two months later, you appear to use either your rotary tool or soldering iron to create your outline. The previous one looks far nicer than this one. Why did you switch up your methods? Genuinely not talking shit like some, I appreciate your tutorials for giving me ideas that I didn't think of...
@@tristarcustoms77 Oh snaps, I saw January and assumed this year. Sorry about that! And, Kudos to you for figuring out better methods =) I'm in the middle of stippling my frame, and I'm heading out to buy one of those v shaped wood gouging tools lol
Stefano Bono I draw them out with a straight edge. Then cut the line with a sharp hot iron. Then follow those cut line with engraving tools for the border.
GlocksNthings this is something I considered doing but the high cost of glock frames along with the wide variety stippling patterns and options offered just makes this unwise business decision on my end.
Please tell me you left it black! Got a 19x, do you do any stippling work for people? I'm to scared to attempt stippling myself lol too cheap to shell out money for another frame if I mess it up.
Raftika wood burner came from Walmart or any craft store. The Micro air die grinder came from harbor freight, you could also use a dremel if you don’t have a compressor.
@@tristarcustoms77 Sorry for my question, but the black color on green glock frame how can you obtained? Thanks! I would like the same effect on my Glock 19x, black grip on Tan frame...
Randy Vertrees hey man thanks for the feedback! I can’t remember the brand but it is a wood burning iron, and I make my own tips I start with a factory tip and modify it to suit my needs. The rotary tool is a micro air die grinder and I use dremel style attachments. I use the sanding drum quite a bit.
Ryan Hendley yes I am. You can message me on Facebook or Instagram you can find the details for that in the description also you can reach me at (606)499-771one
What did you do to the trigger guard?!🤮 I prefer my Glock stock but if I were to have the frame done I would have it done by laser. And you are more likely to have issues putting after market parts in your gun.
Brother, I need to know the song you play in your time-lapses; please! I tried to find it without success. Could you please help a Brother out who loves good music? Many thanks!!
Dr. Brian Hoffman the song is “Goin’ Home” by my good buddy Ken Wilson. I’m not sure if you can find it online anywhere but I’ll try to find out for you.
Glock's are decent tools. CZ's are amazing tools with many features glock's should have. Glock grip angles, finger grooves, and palm swells are not ergonomic and very annoying for me. The only factory Glock lowers I own are a 20/21 and a 29 frame, because Spectre doesn't make a lower for 10mm. Have a 19, 23, and 27 with Spectres' polymer80 v2 frames. Like them a lot, still not as accurate, or as nice as my cz sp01, 97bd, and Shadow 2. Really really wish cz offered a 10mm!
@J M Find me some pictures of CZ's with blown apart slides and frames. I'm sure there are a couple. Now go shoot a bunch of reloads through your glock with its unsupported chamber. Either or, I will wait.
Absolutely. I do it every week. Contact me for more information on Facebook or Instagram @TristarCustoms or if your not on social media can be emailed at tristarcustoms.tn@gmail.com
I know the GlockStore (and probably countless other places) does Cerakoting. I've had guns Cerakoted and it is an excellent finish - much better than Duracoat. It's very hard and I believe the X guns are factory Cerakoted.
Hunter the German Shepherd he’s a local guy so I don’t think that particular song is available for download anywhere I’ll talk to him and see if there’s a way you can get it.
Are people really referring to the marked outline borders as "rough" lol? Acetone or alcohol to remove the drawn on borders and it (the borders) won't look as rigid. Looks good! I would however, add some more stippling at the index points. Looks unfinished, in my opinion. Personally, I dig the stipple style. Reminds me of the good ol' rattlers we have here in South Texas haha! On a side note, I feel like people make RUclips accounts for the sole purpose of crapping on other folks' videos just to feel better about themselves. Jeeeez!
Arthur G I appreciate feedback like this man. I’m usually tempted to reply to the hate comments but I’ve decided some people just live a miserable life to be so negative lol I’ve actually made a few changes to this gun, and I’d post an update video but this particular glock is at the bottom of a river at the moment 😒. Long story. I’ve also changed the way I do my borders as well which I’ll post in my next video.
@@tristarcustoms77 No prob! Looking towards the new video. Bummer that the gun is at the bottom of the river. A snorkel set and an underwater metal detector on hand for such situations would be handy haha! There's videos of folks finding all kinds of goods at the bottom of rivers. Wouldn't doubt if someone finds your Glock sooner or later.
Unless competition shooting I just don’t get the point of stripping your pistol and putting all new parts in it? And after all that left the crappy stock sights. And no I’m not hating, just my observations and opinion
pros and cons of stippling... all it does is 'cook' the synthetics... a crust 'rises' and there is left a series of small 'valley's' . just try this... take a small knife and simply knock off the snots that are elevated above the plain of the surface. they are turned into dried out crusty shit. they pop right off. if you remove all of them... you'll have remaining small valleys that are set into the frame material. now that in itself has a good look to it.. however... allot of frame material, due to stippling with a heat gun/tool/point etc is permanently lost
thanks for the tips. heads up tungsten is heavier than steel . it is designed to reduce muzzle rise
I agree with your decision to not cerakote the pistol.The black contrasts handsomely with the green, excellent choice.Looks awesome.
I love how reliable Glocks are.
Precedes to change every component possible. 🤣
Keep the tri-color. The black green gold work well together plus it sets off the stippling.
Man that came out super nice! Makes me want to DIY stippling my 19 as well.
That's some rough borders, but nice stippling. good job.
'It's a Glock, it's perfect', continues to change out every single thing that could possibly be changed. I love Glock fan boys. 😂
Sweet piece regardless.
Mike Justice, I guess Gaston didn’t think “Glock adequacy” had the same ring to it.😂
Some people change parts because they can. The market supports Glock and some people have the money to invest in their hobby and some people hate, usually the ones who don’t have the money
Texas Ghost not really, imagine buying the “perfect home” but having to dump 100 grand into it lol to make it “more perfect.”
Lots of 1911 guys do the same thing..
Glocks are perfect the same way that a Honda Civic is perfect. Basically it lasts forever and gets the job done lol
that alligator pattern looks really good on the main parts of the gun but it looks weird on the accelerator cuts and the under cut.
I like the snake-like pattern. With the rough edges around the Glock logo on the left grip panel, I'd probably just go ahead and stipple that section too. And I would definitely cerakote the the whole grip to get a uniform color so that any rough edges between the sanded or stippled areas and the untouched areas would disappear.
My is the same way. I bought the 26 and it’s a paint too. I thought it was the full polymer but it’s painted.
Nice job. I like it but the only issue I see is the boarders. It's rough, you could've spent a little extra time and cleaned em up.
Should do a vid on stipple techniques and designs. Turned out really nice!
Michael Vazquez I’ve got a video for that filmed! I’m in the editing process right now hopefully I’ll have it uploaded by next week
That is awesome. I'd love see it when it's up. Thanks man!! 👍
@@tristarcustoms77 did you upload a vid on how to do thia pattern? Its amazing and would like to do on my g19
Glocks much like Harleys can be unique and stand out if left stock. But looks great, needs a ride to Gun Week!
Love the pattern. Love the lines. That Glock emblem though, especially because it’s green, looks very messy. If you just got rid of it and stippled over that as well it would be perfect. Just my opinion.
"Why do you run Glocks?" *Proceeds to shoot and target and hit one time*
While filming.
"In case i have to defend my life underwater"...
...I'm dead😂...
C. Remmington haha I’m glad you appreciate the sarcasm!
Lol
I got a good laugh out of that too.
I had to rewind that shit make sure i heard it correctly 🤣🤣🤣
It would have been nice to show how you actually did the stippling, not at 20x. It looks great.
Mike Zaloudek exactly so fucking stupid to do it 20x speed so you can’t see his technique
Joseph Langone you do realize you can slow the video down, right? 🙄
Tate Craft slowing it to 1/4 speed doesn’t help. It’s still pretty much worthless as a how to. If you are going to waste viewer time, why not spend 10-15 seconds showing the stippling for a small area then do 20x for the rest.
You didn't read the description did you...
Nice work, however, the only parts you really need to improve the trigger is the lighter firing pin spring, a 3.5 connector and the rounded safety plunger with a lighter spring. About $30 in total.
Wanted to see procedure but wasnt possible at the warp speed video. I was bummed to see it ffwd so much.
Strike while the irons hot! Fantastic, definitely snake like, looks great, good work.
skylark thank you! Much appreciated!
That stippling is badass!!!
That design is so clean
Also might try and highlight the Glock logo on the slide with black paint...in use restore....works out great
Testors...not restore...lol
Nice looking gun. I wouldnt cerakote it either but I think the original black slide would look better with that green frame. Good video.
Soldier For Christ Thanks. I’ve often wondered what it would look like with just a black slide. I need to borrow one my friends 19s and see what I think about it. Awesome screen name btw!
I gotta know.. What do you hunt with a 40 S&W?? I could see a 10mm being used for hunting but not it's neutered little brother the 40..

The glock 40 is a 10mm.
Plenty of guys shooting hogs with 40 cal on here if you search
Boy oh boy that’s one hell of a craft...
What type of tips are you using to do your gator scales and you raptor scales awesome work man great job
Devin Hartlage thanks I appreciate that. Unfortunately I make my own tips for the pattern that you see in this video. However the gator pattern I use a small “chisel” tip laid on its side. I hope that info is helpful.
@@tristarcustoms77 thanks again for the info man great work and video again.
Sueweeet ! That’s what’s up brother! That is a great pistol.
I really like that texturing. That's nice.
Beautiful work brother!
christian Hancock thank you!
What's the cost to get that viper job done on a p80, the same as the glock on the video? I'm interested in getting it done.
My Glock is like my Wrangler...I have so many options to customize them to how I want them to be...
Bo Jackson exactly! Make it however you want it brother!
I’m surprised you did all of those upgrades for the trigger assembly but didn’t polish the trigger bar, connector, plunger... etc. nicely done though.
How many watts is your Iron? and I can't find an iron that short here in the Philippines. Do you sell the tips you used?
25 Watts I think. I do not sell the tips.
@@tristarcustoms77 Imma need to do some experimental tips then and check the outcomes! Thanks for the reply!
what tip are you using to ahcieve the viper pattern
@@connerenglish2820 I make it. It’s basically a triangle shape with one side having a radius. Start with a round tip and grind it to the desired shape
How could a person take a tan glock frame and make the stipple black
You have to stipple the frame first, the tape off everything but the stippled area then paint it black.. I’ve done it before in grey frames
It's beautiful how does it feel and work?
Christopher Bernadel it worked and felt excellent before I lost it in the river lol
That is a work of art.great job.
John Allen thanks man!

Ahmed Fahmy thanks I appreciate it. And I actually use a shallow u-gouge.
Ahmed Fahmy I order them from eBay or amazon whichever has them cheaper
Glock does not color mold it's polymer. I'm a pro cerakote applicator. Enjoy the different looks that can be created. great stippling.
Mike Robertson thanks for the info! I appreciate the feedback.
That is not true. Glock has made polymer colors. Grey, tan for 19x, and an od green in limited release.
Tell that to my undercut, finger-groove-less FDE two-tone G19 Gen 4. It was FDE all the way through.
"Gotta represent the Faith." Awesome!
Zeno916 you got it! Only thing that really matters
How did you get such straight lines.
Stefano Bono I draw them out with a straight edge. Then cut the line with a sharp hot iron. Then follow those cut line with engraving tools for the border.
Help me out i cant fine this song anywhere who’s the singer and song called? Thanks and like your video
Im not a glock guy but i do like that stipiling job. Would be nice on a 43
Bakken Cutter I’ll hook you up man.
Black is awsome and do u have any gen 4!stripped 19/23/32 frames that u offer for sale already stippled

I like the tri-tone
Can i buy this tip
Where can I buy the tools you used to do this?
Raftika wood burner came from Walmart or any craft store. The Micro air die grinder came from harbor freight, you could also use a dremel if you don’t have a compressor.
Tristar Customs can you do this again but put the camera focus on your stippling work?
Great upgrade, dude!
Thanks man!

Looks Sharp!!
What kind of tool did you use to grind off the factory/ green coating?
Pastor Doogie it’s a micro air die grinder. And I use a dremel style sanding drum.
Have you done a dragon scale one?
abel rougemont send me a picture of it please.
love your work
So perfection equals a company making it better over and over ?
I DNT usually like stiple jobs but this one looks pretty good you should teach Robbie weaten at weaten arms how to do this right
What Iron and tips are you using.. Also which rotary took and attachment is that?

820hurleyj they are factory cerakoted, but all other glock frames are black polymer.
You messed up on the undercut
its good for your personal tool in your toolbox but you couldn’t sell me that work just too messy for paid custom work
I agree. Those lines are anything but straight, and that trigger guard is something else. But for personal use that's a pretty good job
Got to take your time on the edges buddy. I like the design but just some feedback.
Anthony Pritchard thanks man. This a old video and have since changed my border techniques. Thanks for the feedback!
