Yes I must have done a dozen by now. I use Brownells glass for this. I put in mechcanical locks roughing the surface, drilling dead end holes, cutting slots with dremil tool in the area I want to glass.

Works very well I haven't had one come loose yet.

Will the same method work on a Hogue stock as well??

It should Tom. I haven't done a Hogue stock this way yet (I don't own one), but I've done it to factory injection molded stocks from Ruger, Remington, Winchester and Savage, as well as Ramline, Bell and Carlson and Six Enterprises aftermarket stocks, and it's worked on all of them so far. - Dan
