    I just got a couple of these to try out here; both for Gen 4's. I too was skeptical because I've had great success with the G's stock except for occassional slide bite with 19s or 26s if I got a little to high during a draw.

    But DocGKR, Bill Rogers, Ken Hackathorn et al reviews just created critical mass to give them a look. Feels ok to me. Haven't shot it yet.

    I do find it mildly amusing that the method of attachment which is widely mocked for Gen 4 grip size adaptors is complimented when attaching a Grip Force Adaptor. People are funny.

    OK, with some dry fire quicksdraw I see DocGKR's point. Without front sight a little up, with GFA level. Can't wait to shoot it on drills. I kinda considered the stock front sight high in the presentation/press out a "feature" and aid to picking up the front sight.

    However when pushing speed in the FAST test, yeah I've experienced the challenge of having to pull the front down to get on that dang 3x5 card but over correcting and moving it back up etc all in a fraction of a second.

    Interesting.

    Updated: First fast drill shot ice cold was a 5.75 clean and insanely tightly grouped. I'm getting convinced of the merits.

    There is now a new version of the Grip Force Adapter available, it is shorter in length along the back-strap than the current GFA and the grip tang area is smooth and contoured.

    Now that's looks much better! I never understood the reason for the exposed ridges in the first place.

    While I've reaped the benefits of this product on my G17 I had different experiences with it on my G26. To be specific I'm talking about the previous ridged version. I found that on the smaller framed 26 it would push my hand down to the point I actually wasn't controlling the pistol as well as I previously had.

    I'm going to order this new version to try out on the G17/19. I like it despite my Glock now having an "Uncanny Valley" appearance.

    When will those be released? I don't see them on their website
