[Didnt know if this should go in the current gun hack or in the accessories forum, so I just started a thread here.]
I've owned a G17 in Gens 2,3,4 & now 5. I used them to compete in GSSF matches. They have all rubbed the bottom of my trigger finger raw. A local smith specializing in Glocks destanfully told me I was gripping it wrong. The Glock armorer at a match said he'd never heard of anyone having this problem. My hands and fingers are average. No other semi does this to me. (Includes, XDs, M&Ps, Sigs, 1911s, Shields, Rugers.....)
So to protect the finger I've tried all manner of tape and band aids. They help but are not satisfactory. Last night I bought some liquid band aid and the light bulb went off. After I got home,of course, not before I had spent my money.
Two coats of instant glue. Dries quickly, super tough. Haven't done live fire, but dry firing seems good.
I hesitate to take the file to the trigger or trigger guard on th G17 because it's not clear why this happens and whether removing some material will help or hurt.
