This backstrap along with the DPM recoil system has made this thing a pleasure to shoot as you can tell from my eroding Talon Grips

I ordered one. Received it and it fit perfectly and feels great.

Nice product, I get slide bite enough to want this. Well made and well fit.

Been enjoying mine the last month, the gun feels so much better in the hand.
Side note: You get the color thing figured out? I just hit it with a little black spray paint all good! |

I have dots on all of my G48s and with the dpm system I can track the dot within the window way faster through recoil. I sent one of the uppers off to get ported so once I get that back I'll be really interested in how it handles with the dpm system. |

Was able to order one of these little gems from our brother over on Reddit. I'll post up thoughts & results when it gets here.
Thank you @Dbltap22 for all your efforts! |

A little more distance front to back will be welcome. It's not a huge deal as is, but this should make that whole issue moot. Looking forward to trying it out, no doubt. Edit: @Dbltap22 got your email with tracking. Thanks brother!!! |

Good shit, OP. I was contemplating crudely designing an extended beaver tail as the 43x/48 mauls my shrek hands often. Great to see this has already been done. I’ll keep an eye out for the in-stock EE ad.

Had a chance to shoot a few rounds with mine today. Fits well even without using the tape for now.
Definitely works as intended, no issue with slide bite. May take some getting used to. Changes the feel of the gun and was noticeable in my shooting. |

I only have one 48 and like 8 mags but I have two 17s and about 50 mags and 30 Glock sticks. I only carry my 48 in the summer or if I need to keep a low profile. Maybe I can cut one of my 17 back straps to do the same thing, I have the bigger beaver tail adapter on it now. I'd probably do the same on my 44 then. |

Ive cut a backstrap for my larger glocks as well. The 43x/48 is worth trying and Ill continue to try it for a bit. My hands are pretty small so your experience may be completely different than mine for the record |

It will definitely help with that slide bite nonsense. 😁
The reviews coming in via forum posts and emails are awesome. Super stoked y’all are digging it as much as I’ve been. Who’d of thunk? |

Mine received and mounted. Feels great. I will have an opportunity to shoot with it soon. I'll report back but I don't expect anything but good. Then I'll need to get one for my 43X. Any chance you are going to make one for the 43? Thanks!

I picked one up from dbltap22 about 4 months ago now. It is still holding up great after a lot of rounds, through the gun. The raised lines/ribs on the back strap are still holding up fine and I found they really help with the grip. I even ended up removing the talon grip shit I had on there, just didn't need it anymore. It is definitely worth it in my opinion, as it does feel better in the hand and also help with the bite aspect of it. Shoot him an email if you're interested great guy to work with. [email protected]

Can't wait to put this on my regular 43.
If it doesn't fit, I'll just grab a 43X. Haha |
