About 30 minutes. Took longer to get the nerve to put a 900° iron to a 4 day old gun  . Glad I did it the grip improved a lot.

Haha it would have taken me a LOT longer to build up the nerve. It looks great though! I wish my boredom was that productive.

Wow, only 30 minutes, I would have thought a lot longer.  Looks pretty good to me.

Hey, any chance you could go back and count all those little stipple marks, I'm curious how many it took to do the whole gun.  I'd like a very accurate total so maybe count them all two or three times. lol    It'd probably take a lot longer than 30 minutes to count them all and your eyes would likely be crossed when you were done.
