    Thanks for the evals everyone. DaveW, sorry, original read was on a Droid phone somebody was showing me the pics and I didn't read close enough. Awesome forum that shares the good news.

    Has anyone used a set on duty Glock? Did it get noticed by brass? Any conflicts with "it's not factory" regs? It is such a good idea it will probably be forbidden, formally.

    Well after reading thru the thread and looking over the grip force website and vids, I took the plunge and ordered a set this evening.

    I'll update you all when I get them.

    I was able to put another 100 rounds through my G19 with this adapter. I'm sold. I did the semi-permanent installation and while it may or may not add to the sturdiness of the adapter I think it will help keep dirt or other debris from getting between the adapter and the grip. I didn't want to get the pin stuck so I left a gap around the pin but I believe the top and bottom would be the areas to collect the most dirt.

    I received mines yesterday. It took no longer than 3 minutes to install. It is well made and it is on there good, so I don't have to worry about the adaptor coming off or the supplied pin shimming it's way loose. My only complaint is the checkering in the backstrap is kinda sharp. nothing but a little sanding will help.
    I have small hands and when I gripped my glock 19 it felt like gripping a Glock 21. What I liked about it is when I'm ready to shoot, my first joint of my trigger finger is already there with no need of adjustment.
    The way the Glock points feels also natural like a 1911/XD. All I have to do now is shoot a few rounds to make sure that GFA will work for me.

    Mine came in this afternoon. The installation was less than 60 seconds, honestly, took a LOT longer to read the instructions than to follow them!

    I have done quite a bit of drawing and dry firing with it installed, and I'm cautiously optimistic. My G19, which, despite years of INTENSE training has always "naturally" pointed high in my hand, now points dead on from the draw. The grip IS larger, the pad of my finger just barely reaches the center of the trigger, instead of the first joint, so we'll have to see what effect this has on my shooting.

    Can't wait to get to the range and start wringing this out. I'm thinking, actually, that this device, coupled with the Gen4's reduced grip, might be THE solution for the Glock grip.

    Regards,

    Kevin

    I installed one on my G17. Shot an IDPA match (ESP) with it and liked the way it improved the feel of the G17.

    I also did some dryfire with it and like the way it indexes my hand on the gun as I form the grip.

    It's only an "arm's length" gun if you're incompetent.

    I just put one on my G22. I had to trim a bit of the hood on my Safariland 6280 to make it fit.

    I qualified yesterday and the webbing of my hand was a little red, but no blood!!!!

    I highly recommend it to anyone who gets slide bite.

    So your understanding is that it puts the 17 into ESP? or is it because of that huge ass mag well?

    If you have to put a compensator on a 9mm, maybe you should buy panties instead of briefs - Ken Hackathorn via Facebook live

    Liking a Glock is a version of Stockholm Syndrome. Nobody likes it but they get use to it in time - Countless Victims

    Either qualifies to put it into ESP, IMO.
