Since I started hooking my index finger on the trigger guard, the shorter 19 grip no longer feels small, and I prefer the feel to the 17/45 grip. Really sold on the LTT grip anchor.

Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
Not gonna lie, I have wanted this set up for a LONG time.
But as others have noted, in the age of RDS, it is way late to the party.
The way I see things now, being able to get the different grip length/size, while having the same slide length, allows me to use the same holsters for multiple guns. For many, this wont matter, but with safariland duty gear that utilize a peg to secure the end of the barrel, slide length matters. With duty holsters costing over 100 a pop, having one slide length for several grip sizes makes sense. So I can have a 17/49 combo, or a 19/45 combo and not need as many duty holsters.
That is the only real advantage I see here.
My son already has a 19, and has 3 holsters. I can gift him a G45, and there is no need to have new holsters, but he will have a full size grip to start to use for competition.

I am FAR better and more comfortable with shooting the 17. But realistically the 19 is easier to hide. The Gen 5 is the first 19 I have remotely liked. Now that they have the smaller grip diameter, larger mag release button, no finger groves, etc... the 19 has finally become an option I would consider.
Of course, with that said, I find myself carrying a P365 90% of the time.

Maybe people will shoot even moar left with this thing.
The most powerful and harmful influence Trump has had on our politics…has been the effect on his opponents. They have been triggered into an orgy of self-mutilation—eager to amputate their own history and disfigure their own political traditions.
Is this a 19 grip with a 19 hump or a 19 grip with a 17 hump? I guess Im wondering if this is the same as a cut down 17 or is it a long slide 19?
