    bowie tactical concepts glock

    I have a glock 19 at Bowie Tactical Concepts right now and am looking for advice as to whether or not I should have the finger grooves removed or not. I have a Bowie glock23 that has the finger grooves and they dont bother me but I am wondering if having the finger grooves removed would help me get a better grip? Any advice?

    All depends on the shape of you hands but I would have to think if they don't bother you on a 23 you should be GTG.

    Possible compromise...

    I agree with the above. On my personal G19s (various vintages done by Robar, Bowie, and Boresight Solutions), I've had the finger grooves rounded/melted some...you still feel them, but not quite as pronounced. It's a compromise I've been happy with...YMMV.

    I prefer to not have the finger grooves but i like how boresight solutions leaves the top most one just a little bit

    The only thing that i dont like about having the finger grooves on my 23 are that if my grip isnt right on when presenting the gun from the holster I have to adjust. If there were no finger grooves i dont think this would be a problem.

    So, you essentially answered your own question. Having the finger grooves removed would be an advantage in handling your 19.

    I prefer to remove the finger grooves as quickly as possible from any glock I get. But I am sort of a mutant and have hands like a catchers mit.
    Dont sweat the small stuff.


    If youre not taking fire, its all small stuff.

    Since I don't have your hands attached to my wrists, I find this question hard to answer, but it seems you have answered it yourself.
