Took the plunge....

Well, all I can do is link the "gallery" of grip jobs on their website. For some reason I couldn't save the pics from it.

So... I got my gun back this morning. I picked it up and pretty much went straight to the range. The grip work is fantastic, I can't tell you how nice it is. I didn't think that it would make that much of a difference, but it did. Especially the backstrap reduction, the gun is truly a "point, shoot" gun now. I always seemed to point high with it before. (common glock problem to the best of my knowledge)

Also, they worked the fulcrum trigger that I had bought previously. And honestly, it is a LOT better than a stock trigger. The pre travel and over travel has been substantially shortened from what the factory trigger is. And also, the pull is lighter than what you can achieve by replacing your standard springs with the wolf springs and connector, or any other brand for that matter. BUT.... If I had it to do over again with the trigger, honestly I would have stayed with the wolf setup that I had. I don't think that the fulcrum kit is a bad one, I just don't think that I would spend that much money on that again. That being said, I won't be asking for my money back on this one. After the money to get it out there, have them work it, and get it back. I'm just going to keep it, as it is better than the previous setup that I was running. So, take all of that for what it is. If you have the spare coin laying around and want to get a better trigger, then go for it, it's not bad by any means. It is just an opinion and how much I value the greenbacks in my pocket.

I can say that their customer support is outstanding. They talked me through what all of the grip modifications would/could be and we discussed wether or not I truly would need some of the things that they offered. Some of the more expensive options, the guy who wrote up my order simply said that you will not need that from what we discussed. I think that is great, as many companies would try and talk you into giving them more money from my experiences. Also, they told me it's about a 4 week turnaround time. I told them that I had a match this weekend and they said to keep calling back (squeeky wheel) and more than likely they would be able to get it to me by the match. Well, they did, with two days to spare.

So, to sum it up I have nothing but good things to say about Glockworx, or zev technologies (same place). I am very happy with the way that the gun turned out. So... without further adieu here are the pics:

Thanks to this thread and using some of the pictures in this thread, my wife found a local LEO that moonlights as a gunsmith and has been doing grip reductions on glocks for a while. He is going to do a taylored grip reduction for her hand on her Gen 4 34. She saw some of his previous work and liked it. I'll report back when we get it back. 1st fitting in a week and then back in her hands a week later is the estimate. My fingers are crossed that it turns out well.

I do, I like it a lot. I don't think it's that rough, but there is no question on wether or not it's going to slip out of your hand lol.

That's true. I stipple with much less depth and a more uniform look. I find the really deep stippling to be uncomfortable after a lot of shooting. But, maybe that deep stippling keeps your hands cooler, I don't know.

Damn you are really stretching there, lol. I'm not going to be shooting this for long durations. 30 rounds at a time in very quick fashion is usually towards the top end of what we do. Maybe a little more than that. But usually the stages last about 100 seconds if I'm actually shooting worth a shit, lol. And that is three guns worth and usually a good deal of movement.

I happen to think that it is fairly uniform looking. They said that they use brass round stock that has been stamped with a 25 LPI file.
