Acquired this NIB Gen3 19. I really like the feel of my Gen4 19 but the Gen3's grip texture needs work IMO. So I grew a pair and stippled it. I knew it wasn't gonna be a professional job but I wasn't going to pay $300+ for someone else to do it. First priority was for functionality. No fancy border. Basic starburst pattern. I'm satisfied with it. Have about a total of 5hrs invested including sanding/prepping.
