    When installing the 1st gen GFA, I grind the internal ribs off the device so its sits more flush against the grip as note previously in this thread...

    Started rocking the new 2nd gen GFA's--I like them very much for G19's. For G17's I like the slightly longer extension down the grip of the 1st gen, however the smooth beavertail and closer fit to grip of the 2nd gen are very appealing.

    I wonder who those pistols were tooled up for...

    hey guys, i bought one for partner in crime and he likes it very much. so much so that he told our lieutenant who bought one and a few extras for the work gun and personal gun.

    the question that keeps coming up from these guys is the pin, is there a reason that it comes with 2 of them? are they prone to breakage? if they do break, will the pistol malfunction?

    any help will be appreciated. thank you for your time.

    I believe that is so that you don't have to re use the old pin if you remove it?

    Running into Glock-bite on my new Gen4 g19. I've casually shot my son's Gen 3, and never had an issue. Tried my new Gen 4 the other day for 250 rds, and whammo - slide bite.

    Ordered a GFA last night, but have some trepidation on making a good feeling grip LONGER and FATTER. But the 'performance' reviews out there are pretty good:

    Anyone with less than XLG hands use this out there? Thanks.

    Got my Grip Force Adapter for my G17 the other day. Went on with no problem and it does help MY pointability and lets me put a little less finger in the trigger. So far I am very pleased and the customer service was great.

    I have one of those gen 3s...so will a gen 4 adapter work...or am I out of luck?

    I have a newer GEN 3 that works just fine despite their warning. I was worried at first but didn't have any trouble with it fitting.

    I have a Gen 4 and it works fine. It comes with a Gen 3 adapter also.
