I'm a big fan of the functionality and consider it for me a must have. It is ugly as fvck though but Glocks aren't beauty queens in stock form anyways. What sold me was at during training the instructor 'splaineded how it helps and had us all put a mix of dish soap and water on our hands and shoot 5 rounds. I could barely keep the gun controlled. Then had us repeat with his pistol that had been stippled and it was much mo'bettah. I stippled my Glock so its a very aggressive pattern but knowing better now, I would only stipple the front and rear of the grip and leave the sides alone. It tears my skin up if it's against it so I have to wear an undershirt and those get ruined quickly. Plus 80% of your grip strength is derived from your thumbs and fingers anyway.
So only stipple your shower and dishwashing carry guns...
