I like the finger grooves.... they fit my hand nicely.... I have a Gen 1 Glock 17 (no finger groves) and put a Hogue slip on grip on it and it is awesome!
Everything I needed to learn in life I learned from Country Music.

I would rather my GLOCK in the evidence locker than my KIMBER. 8) 8) 8) ::)

Finger grooves are great if you have a set of custom  grips that are made to fit your hand. BUT the one size fits all concept of finger grooves on a gripframe just doesn't do it for me.

+1.  I have large hands and most of those finger grips are made for 12 year olds!

I see your point about finger grooves and grips. However, they fit me perfit.. so I can't complain. Maybe, Glock will make new grips or options etc..  because the guns are wonderful. Obviously, that is my very biased opinion.  ::) But, you know the old saying, "if the shoe fits..wear it." Well in my case.."If the gun fits.. carry it." And I do..   I love Glock...    :)

Yeah, It's true and they are already being sold. I understand that some people won't ever like Glocks. I don't mind that much, but i admit it concerns me that the ones who post on Glock discussion always have the biggest issues and the least understanding about what they're complaining of. Yes, the 4th gen has finger grooves and they work...like the previous incarnations...I have big hands and long fingers and I find the grip on my Glocks to be suitable. The new grip grooves don't seem to be as pronounced as the previous models.  I was astounded that people were complaining about field stripping a Glock. From the first Glock to the latest they all field strip the same way and it works like a charm if you act like you know what you're doing. The guy who griped about "Glock Perfection" being changed again and again could learn from history that Perfection must be judged against the cloth of its' own time and place. Technology changes perfection almost daily and that is a very good thing. As for the photo being "faked"? That guy doesn't get out much or read much, I suppose.

I was really shocked the first time I heard about that. It seems to go against the safety rules I learned about guns.
Yeah.  I remember my first gun.   ::)

WELL...

Maybe Mister One-Post will jump in again too and explain the difference between perfect, more perfect, most perfect, and even more perfect;)

I wouldn't want to do that. I can see you already know everything about everything. Signed, Mister Two Posts

Wouldn't want to. Or CAN'T?

If I already knew everything I wouldn't ask. I'm considering buying a Glock but I can't afford to buy a new one every time they change something. If it's truly perfect I'll get one if I get an income tax refund big enough to cover it. If they aren't perfect and there's room for improvement I'll wait.
