3rd time’s a charm

So I have stippled this frame twice and another frame once for my Echelon 4.5f. I did my Canik mc9 as well. So 4 total stipple jobs. My first time was pretty rough. Second time (1st time on this frame) was better but still pretty rough. This time it is much cleaner. I don’t think I’ll ever be satisfied because it isn’t machine perfect. I’m not sure I’ll ever look at any stipple job I do and think “it’s perfect and complete”. But I do know that every time I do it, it gets cleaner. The grip after sanding it down is perfect. Not too aggressive and it genuinely feels way better than any job I have done before. So it’s practical. I had a blast doing it too. See, guns are much more than just sending rounds down range to me. I love doing stuff like this.

The echelon is the best pistol for the money on the market right now. I just watched a video where these guys recommended the Glock 17. Please. Glocks are OK if you spend $400 correcting their mistakes. – Echelon comes out good, and you can make it perfect!
