There's just something that goes against the grain to have to do major surgery to the grip frame of a gun to make it more shooter friendly. I just think they were a bad idea to begin with, and since they are starting to reduce the size of them,I must not be the only one. ;D

Great nations rise and fall. The people go from bondage to spiritual truth, to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependence, from dependence back again to bondage. Where are we now??????

It would be smart on glock's part if they had front straps that interchanged as well. I've heard rumors that for the Gen 5 they consulted with Magpul and are going to design the grip a lot like the MIAD, multiple front and backstrap options. It would be great if they did but it's not like there sales have suffered. On top of that they created an entire cottage industry of "gunsmiths" that do nothing but modify glock frames. I personally don't view it as major surgery, I can knock out a finger groove removal and front checker job in about an hour. To me it's no harder than doing a trigger job and feedramp polishing which I also do to all my glocks. maybe it's just me but whenever I buy a new gun odds are I'll have it in many pieces within a week or two. When it goes back together every little piece has been inspected and any machining marks or burrs have been buffed and polished out.
