19 V1

19 V1 Features

The 19 V1 stipple pack stands out with its diverse range of grip patterns, ensuring there's something for every user. Each pack includes 5 new patterns alongside the well-known Standard Stipple and its AVES variant, offering a blend of comfort and performance.

• Standard Stipple: Features regular depressions at 0.7mm depth, striking a balance between grip and a smooth hand feel with moderate slice time.
• Coral Stipple: An organic upgrade to the Standard, with sharper ridges and 1mm depth, recommended for optimal grip and comfort.
• Trippy Grippy: A visually striking pattern with lower grip but minimal slice time, perfect for a unique aesthetic over high-speed performance.
• Engraved (Floral Goodtimes): Offers a surprisingly grippy texture with a floral design, though less comfortable than Coral, with high slice time.
• Triangle (Popcorn Ceiling): Delivers exceptional grip, ideal for smaller frames like the 26, despite its rough feel and low slice time.
• P80 Style: Mimics the Polymer 80 grip with micro-blobs for a hard-hitting, very grippy texture, though not as comfortable, with an extremely long slice time.

Additionally, a thumbnail gallery is included to preview patterns before slicing in Cura, making it easy to choose the perfect design for your build.

Difficulty & Build Time

• Skill Level: Intermediate
• Estimated Build Time: 1-3 days (depending on pattern complexity and printer settings)
• Required Experience: Familiarity with 3D printing, slicing software like Cura, and basic firearm frame assembly

Hardware and Tools Required

Required Hardware

• Compatible Glock 19.2 frame (or 17.2/26.2 frames)
• Quality rails (sourced from vendors like Avesrails.com or Riptiderails.com, as mentioned in related documentation)
• Glock Gen5 style spring setup (for G5Spring frame versions, if applicable)

Recommended Tools

• 3D printer capable of handling detailed textures
• Slicing software (e.g., Cura) for preparing STL files
• Basic hand tools for frame assembly (screwdrivers, pliers, etc.)
• Finishing tools (sandpaper or rotary tools) for post-print cleanup

19 V1 Parts

The 19 V1 stipple pack includes STL files for each of the six unique grip patterns: Standard, Coral, Trippy Grippy, Engraved, Triangle, and P80. These files are designed for printing directly onto compatible Glock frames, with a focus on achieving precise textures. For best results, print with a high-detail setting to capture the intricate designs, especially for patterns like Engraved and P80.

It’s recommended to use durable materials like PETG or ABS to withstand the wear and tear of firearm use. Pay attention to slice times noted for each pattern—ranging from low (Trippy Grippy, Triangle) to extremely high (P80)—and adjust printer settings accordingly. Previewing via the included thumbnail gallery in Cura can help avoid misprints.

Printer Compatibility & Settings

The 19 V1 stipple pack is compatible with most FDM 3D printers capable of detailed surface textures, such as Ender 3, Prusa i3, or similar models. For materials, PETG or ABS are highly recommended due to their strength and heat resistance, essential for firearm components. PLA may not offer the durability needed for long-term use.

Set your printer to a layer height of 0.1-0.2mm for finer details, especially with complex patterns like Engraved. Ensure proper bed adhesion and consider using a brim or raft for stability during long prints like the P80 pattern. Adjust infill to at least 20-30% for structural integrity, and monitor slice times as indicated for each design to optimize your workflow.

Conclusion

The 19 V1 stipple pack by Chairmanwon is an exceptional resource for customizing Glock frames with unique, functional grip patterns.
