just because someone stippled it doesn't make it worth more Don't care. Don't plan on selling it. I did it because my hands are sometimes greasy, oily, or just dirty espresso at work. And sometimes I have gloves on. Having extra texture is nice

The gun got to a Taran on Tuesday just fine but when I sent it off the FedEx guy didn't even ask me what was in the box, I could've saved a little bit of money by sending it two day.. oh well.
Now that my gun is in the queue the waiting begins for real, they said about 18 weeks. To get the whole package done? Just stippling took me about 3.5 weeks from the day I shipped to the day I opened the box.

Dont get me wrong i like some small alterations to suit my likes but i cant even imagine what someone could possibly do to them that is worth $1100 bucks. How many man hours exactly does that kind of dough buy ??? I like to make things mine and i appreciate cool and different stuff but this is nothing ill ever be doing.
I agree, within the context of what you meant. However, it's pretty easy to have well over $1100 into a Glock when you drop a $600+ red dot on top. I mill my own, but most people will pay $150-$200 for that work, add to the cost of a new Glock, maybe some improved trigger parts, one can easily go over $1500. This one is nothing real special, just my daily carry gun (without the brake, I don't carry it that way). I milled the slide for the RMR, added suppressor sights, a threaded barrel, and some trigger work. I've spent somewhere north of your $1100 figure, but none of it's decorative, it's all about making it a better tool, with the end result being that even a mediocre shooter can pick it up and ring steel with it at 100 yards.

Been about 15 weeks since I sent out my G19 to Taran Tactical but they are telling me it's gonna take 20 weeks. God I hate waiting... if I had to do this over again I think I would've just bought a ready made agency arms glock. The waiting is truly terrible.

Was able to finally get glock 19 completed and back from TTI a week ago. Took little over 5 months.

not sure about the 2 front sights, all that work and a stock trigger?

Haven't had a chance to shoot it that much but put a 100rds through it. It feels a little softer shooting, can't tell if it shoots flatter though.
They did their "carry" trigger job which is a 4.5lb trigger but they keep the stock shoe. It's a little smoother and lighter than stock but honestly nothing to write home about.
The rmr is mounted with a dueck defense for mount which isnt a TTI addon, just something I put on. The mount comes with integrated iron sights so that's why it looks like there are two front sights. I could remove the TTI front sight but didn't bother to.
