Can sand or stipple at this point.
I overlay backstrap so I don’t bother.
E6000 and clamp
Compared to a Gen 4 in back. Subtle flattening.
You can cut larger gaps and fold more inwards if you want less hump.

I view it as a comfort modification like stippling or undercut.
It’s not going to meaningfully change the ability of someone to shoot well or poorly.
It’s just a subtle index change that only matters for someone going at full speed on a small target without time to correct mechanics.
It’s not worth it for most people, but for me it only took the time for my daughter to take a bath and I like working with my hands.
It’s worth it for me to get index more similar to my revolvers and other guns. But it only comes into play at 0.7s type draws to small targets.
Nice work. I could never do that.
Very cool. It is amazing what a huge difference can be made by just a small amount of change in girth/feel of the grip.
I'll mic them when I get home (actually carrying the hybrid G19 and a gen4 G19 at the moment), but the difference is very slight, but feels great.
I see you're using a back strap regardless, makes sense. With mine (3rd gen) I had no choice but to sand down and stiple, due to the heat deformation. Worked out though, grip texture is now much more solid.
I don’t mind stippling at all, for these I thought I would do a little stealth mod.Originally Posted by ViniVidivici
My G26 I did a similar humpectomy and then blended the bottom of a P320 down. Had to stipple that and love it.
Excellent! That little hump removal might just make the grip angle more natural for me.
Yeah I remember your G26 hybrid, cool stuff!
So got home, measured front to back of the grips, narrowest part of base where hump is:
Gen3 G19: 2.22"
Gen4 G19: 2.14"
Modified Gen3 G19 hybrid: 2.10"
Ridiculously small differences, but hugely different feel. Doesn't take much.
