    Saw that. Curious what the new gun will look like. I believe the want list was no finger grooves and Trijicon HD sights. I think a Gen 4 G19 without finger grooves, minus connector, slim grip with texture, HD night sights would be a do all pistol and paired up to a G43 would sell well.

    I strongly dislike glock because of their ergonomics in relation to my hand. But I did shoot a 34 gen3 with finger grooves removed and trigger guard undercut. Had stipple job and ghost 3.5lb kit. I must say it felt fantastic. Fit my hand perfect and felt great under recoil and trigger was slick. I could easily see myself buying a glock if they'd make them without the finger grooves.

    Undercut on the trigger guard. Yes! Forgot that.

    The original guns were "slick" with no grooves and people put grip sleeves on them to give them some better control and finger grooves. So Gen 3 added grooves, and that still wasn't enough, so we got the RTF texture and Gen 4 changeable back straps. Sounds like they need to make a series of grip inserts like the MIAD AR grip...customize the front and rear straps to get just the grip you like.

    It's very easy to just remove the finger grooves

    Hard to get a factory look, though. I removed the grooves on my G23 and G35, then stippled the front strap where the humps were. Looks decent, but admittedly not factory slick.
    I'd buy a factory no-groove G19 in a heartbeat.

    That happens when you load the boolits backwards in the clip.
    Try putting them in the other way.
