I really like this idea!
While I have large meathooks, slide bite has never been a problem for me - even with the G27 - but the Glock grip angle just isn't quite right. Doesn't really affect shooting for me, just feel.
Sadlly,they didn't include the G27 in the lineup.  ???

I think I need one of these for the 23.  For $27 it's a hell of a lot cheaper than a new Gen4.

Thanks for the heads up Gunmart!!

Looks like it will preclude you from using a Crimson Trace laser. And that is a bad thing in my book (all my pistols have CT on them)

OK....but doesn't the Crimson Trace basically add a beaver tail already?  Why would you even need this if you already have the CT?

From what I've read this does more than just add a beaver tail.

It modifies the grip angle so that it feels more familiar to those accustomed to the grip on a 1911.

...if one has issues with the original G LOCK grip angle.
For me factory angle works just fine thank you very much.

My G21SF wasn't too bad for me but my 17 felt a little off to me since I've spent so much time shooting M&Ps and my 1911. I like the adapter for the simple fact that it gives my Glocks a consistant, natural pointing ability. Not a dang thing wrong with a stock Glock but why not take every advantage to make you even better with you gun?
