Stippling

What is Stippling?

Laser engraving is a process that vaporizes materials into fumes to engrave permanent, deep marks. The laser beam acts as a chisel, incising marks by removing layers from the surface of the material. The laser hits localized areas with massive levels of energy to generate the high heat required for vaporization. This means that we cut into metals using high-powered lasers to create an image as if it was engraved.

What kind stippling does Tailored Arms do?

If you guessed custom, then you are 100% correct! Our gunsmith uses stipples with various patterns and hatches and are able to tailor make a personalized grip for the customers needs. We start by hand sanding then wet sanding your current Glock-based pistol. During this time we create a template and pattern based on customer specifications. We then laser stipple the approved pattern/design onto your frame and with quality control checks making sure its a perfect stipple every time.
