Glock Grip reduction Login/Join

Do these companies doing grip reductions on Glocks use expoxy to fill the backstrap then grind down the hump? Is there another method? Thinking hard about doing it myself on my G26.

There is the "candle method" which involves heating and reshaping the hump to reduce it.

Saw that on youtube. Wonder if getting it that hot weakens the polymer.

I believe that Cold Bore Custom uses a reshape method and he has a fairly large clientele. I've not heard much of negative reports in regards to polymer strength.

Glock Grip Reduction:
- Robar
- Bowie Tactical
- Cold Bore Customs
there are probably a few more; but these have been proven over and over again.

For the first time this week I saw a Lone Wolf Glock frame. It was totally different shape.
You might take a look at them.

I just got a Glock 19 gen 3 frame from Ben At Boresight Solutions and love it. Got the level 2 grip reduction and razorback option. Totally love it!!! The frame now feels more "rigid" like an hk uspc and less flexible like my original g19 frame. The gun is more pointable and easy to grip. Highly recommend it.
