The stippling on Crimson Trace
grips are in direct response to a
request from Larry Vickers retired
US Army Special Operations
soldier, member of American
Pistolsmiths Guild,  and a founding
member of IDPA.  This process
gives the Crimson Trace Grips  a
new level of adherence to the
shooter's hand.  This service has
now been requested by many
shooters as well as other custom
pistolsmiths.  The texturing can be
done on any Crimson Trace Grip
that is not rubber over-molded.  
Cost for 1911 grips and Glock unit:  
$60.00
As seen on 1911 grip above and
Glock unit below.
Glock 21 seen here features a grip cut
down to hold Glock 30 mags with
Glock 21 base pads.  This gives the
hand a full grip on the gun instead of a
two finger hold during reloads.  It also
gives a full fighting gun slide and sight
radius.  The basic job is $70.00  This
does create a truly awesome
concealable fighting .45 ACP.  This can
be done in its basic form just as a cut
down or the full house job like seen
here .  See the services page for
possible modifications available.

need is so rewarding. As a lead instructor

Law enforcement and average folks that
want to win when the balloon goes up.
