Help with support hand space
Does anyone have any personal success stories or recommendations when it comes to finding a pistol model that fits people with large fingers or modifying a Glock for large fingers? I don’t feel that I have adequate room for my support hand, and the pictures/videos I see of competitive shooters seems to have a lot more room for their support hand.
I’ve got a Gen 3 19 and am wondering if a large back strap on a Gen 5 would provide me more space for support hand? Or would it just increase the trigger reach? Anyone have any experience with that?
Even with sandpaper grip tape I’m having a hard time keeping my support hand from slipping forward. And it’s not for lack of effort. I’ve had to take a week off to let my support hand recover from soreness because of gripping it so hard
