2 Different Glock Grip Modifications by Modern Materiel

Recommended Posts

I have been wanting to get some grip work done on my 2 main carry guns for a long time. So today I caught up with Joe at Modern Materiel just after lunch and dropped off a G23 and a G35 to him for some work.

 

I got a call back around 8:00 tonight and he said to swing by and pick them up. I was shocked they were able to get them done that fast.

 

Glock 23:

I asked for an aggressive stipple job, remove top finger bump, shorted the length of pull, and relieve around the mag release. I usually carry my G23 with a SF X300U and a DG11 switch, so I didn't want the trigger guard undercut. To say I am pleased is an understatement.

Fits my hand like the proverbial glove. The outline is clean and straight and the texture is aggressive but not painful.

Glock 35:

My G35 got something different - a mix of epoxy and silicon carbide. The only mod to the grip was to have the space around the mag release relieved. The silicone carbide feels like the frame was dipped in liquid skateboard grip tape.

It sticks to your hand like your hand is make of velcro.

Nice work. Looks great. Did they remove the upper finger grove on the 23 or was that previously done?

Joe removed the upper finger bump and textured the lower one. I was going to have them both removed, but after seeing how I grip the pistol, Joe talked me out of it and I'm glad he did. It feels like the grip was custom molded to my hand now, and that little bump locks the frame into my firing grip.

HE- your guns look great....... well as good as a glock can look lol. Joe finished my shield in a night also and it's killing me that I've been so busy that I haven't had time to get back to pick it up. Friday can't come soon enough.

Cage...2 industrial dr keyport NJ....stop by anytime...we love to talk guns...

Can I ship you a Glock? I'll send a copy of my d/l and FID as proof of my NJ address. I'm a fan of the fun on the left in the first photo. Like sandpaper.

I have never been a fan of the pictures I see of stippling or the few examples I have seen in person. It always looks like someone took a soldering iron and haphazardly stabbed away at the grips and gave up caring how anything looks. Sort of like how hot glue always has that little 'tail' when you move the gun away, and you end up with a mess of hair-thin strands between the ugly blobs.

 

These stippling jobs however...I am impressed. These are the first jobs I have seen that would make me consider having it done on one of my own guns. I am really digging the straight stippling on that 19. If I had a gen2 or 3 Glock I might consider it even more...

 

Nice work guys!

Is that on a Gen 3? Wondering if it will make a major difference on a Gen 4. Basically I sweat a lot, so I need something that's going to stay in my hand like glue. I'm planning on getting back into IDPA, so I need something I can shoot one handed that's not going to shift in my sweaty hand.

can stippling on a handgun which is too aggressive be reduced?

You can probably just run some sandpaper over it to knock the tops off or shoot allot and develop calluses lol

      I was staff at the Battle For The North Coast USPSA match a couple of weeks ago. I won a certificate for a new Glock at the staff dinner. I already have several Glocks which fulfil my needs so I'm putting it up for sale.
      The certificate is good for the following guns free of charge:
      9mm: G17, G17 Gen5, G19, G19 Gen5, G26. G26 Gen5, G43, G43X MOS, G48 MOS, G45
      .40S&W: G22, G22 Gen5, G23, G23 Gen5, G27, G27 Gen5
      .357Sig: G31, G31 Gen4, G32, G32 Gen4, G33, G33 Gen4
      .380: G42
      .22LR: G44
      .45GAP: G37, G37 Gen4, G38, G39
       
      There are other models available with an upgrade fee which is taxable (just the upgrade fee, not the whole price of the gun)
      $58 Upgrade:
      10mm: G20, G20SF, G29, G29SF
      .45ACP: G21SF, G21 Gen4, G30 Gen4, G30SF, G30S, G36FGR
      $71 Upgrade fee:
      9mm: G19 Gen5 MOS, G45 MOS, G47 Gen5 MOS
      $90 Upgrade fee:
      9mm: G19X (Coyote color only)
      $92 Upgrade fee:
      9mm: G34
      .40S&W: G35
      .45ACP: G41
      $156 Upgrade fee:
      9mm: G34 Gen5 MOS
      10mm: G40 Gen4 MOS
      .45ACP: G41 Gen4 MOS
      The actual list of guns is here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/w3GnW1DjwepoGebH8
      You can also choose to add Glock night sights for $67 or, if ordering a Gen5 model, Ameriglo Bold sights for $90.
      The certificate is valid until 12/31/2024. You would need to fill it out and send it with a copy of your FFL's license to Glock. They would then send the gun to your FFL for transfer to you. You are responsible for all FFL fees.
      I'm looking for $475 for the certificate. As there is no actual firearm being transferred, just a certificate, there is no permit required, although you will need one if you are an NJ resident so your FFL will be able to transfer the gun to you.

      Hello,
      I am new here and looking to sell my two hand guns (I have another post for a Browning 22 1911 what will have a description very similar to this post).

      This post is for a Glock G19 GEN5 with night sights that I purchased new from Firearms Support and Storage June of 2019. I have used it a total of two times at RTSP in Union NJ and in it's lifetime it has shot only 172 rounds down range.
      It comes with 3 10 round magazines as well as the grips/lock as shown in the photos. I have not used it since prior to covid, so I will give it the best cleaning I can before the sale.
      The price is $325 plus FFL transfer fees.
      If you have questions or if I can share any other photos, please let me know.
       
      Thank you!

      Does anyone have experience with Jim Flynn’s in glen Gardner nj, I bought a bag of 9mm Ammo for my Glock 19 gen 5 and I was wondering if it’s good Ammo and if it’ll be safe to fire in my Glock. Thank you- TD
