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

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 was thinking that or even RIT dye but wasn’t sure if it would hold. I love the two I have on my G48s.

Does the dpm help? Not much out there for reviews on the small glocks.

In my experience yes. 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.

 Might work, I had some flat black BBQ paint and so far is holding up.

True that. My two on my 48s changed how the whole gun feels and the added distance in the back lines up my finger on the trigger the same way as it does on my 19s.

That's exactly what I want to hear. As much as I like my new 48, even with medium size hands my trigger finger pad is not where I want it without "thought." 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.

@@Dbltap22 Backstrap in the house! Not done fart'n around with FCG goodies, so I'm not going to perm mount this yet. But, low and behold it friction fits good enough to get a feel for it. LOVE it!

Thanks so much my friend, this really changes the feel of the G48 no doubt. Almost 1911-ish.. of which that's all I shot years ago. Feels great, looking forward to getting out and put some pez down range.

You da man

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.

That's my concern. 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.

That's exactly what I did to my G45 after falling in love with this backstrap on my 43X... I trimmed a medium backstrap to fill the void and eliminate most of the Glock hump. Not quite as good as @Dbltap22 's solution here, but it's the same concept. Feels much better in the hand... A little more "1911-ish."

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

Yes it does. Adjusting grip angle and slide bite protection are the two main benefits, IMO.

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]

Even fits the Shadow Systems CR920P. I epoxied this one on and shaped it/then covered with Talon grip material. The sights are perfectly aligned when I draw the pistol. Great job on the adapter and thank you
