Dale Hunnicutt of Gripreductions.com did a grip reduction on my wife's Glock 19. He did a superb job. It not only accomplishes the mission of reduction, it looks great too!
Plus, when the pistol was ready, he saved me money in shipping cost and delay by meeting me (out of his way) after a gun show he was in. Thus, no money spent on return shipment, faster return of the pistol and in my opinion, less chance for a shipping loss. What a great guy!
We had the reduction done as she was having many "stove pipe" problems. She has small hands and her very short index finger couldn't properly reach the trigger. The reduction now allows her a proper grip and thus the middle pad of her index finger can reach where it's supposed to on the trigger and voila' "stovepiping" is a thing of the past. She proved this with many rounds fired without a single problem. This success was impossible in the past as she would constantly have malfunctions. Those days are now a thing of the past.
Thanks Dale!
P.S. And thanks to those of you here who recommended Dale Hunnicut. I'dve never known who to turn too for this work without your advice.

Sounds like it came out well. I was thinking about having something similar done to mine. Do you happen to have any photos?

We talked some about shooting and he filled me in on his level of shooting.
Wow!

Re: Grip Reduction - Great Job!
I can only add to the compliments of Dale's quality of work and for the quality of the man... you can't find better in either. Although I met him at a SAXET in San Antonio a few times and chatted about his work...he didn't happen to mention his extensive handgunnery (yes i said handgunnery) or knowledge. A humble man.
I had an XD that received a grip reduction, hybrid grip texturing (in the shape I essentially traced onto the grip), and added a magwell. He was also kind enough to send it back NOT in the sandwich bag I gave him at the show, but, in a very nice, soft, case...no charge.
