Anyone have trouble with slide bite from a Glock? If so how did you fix it. I have heard people with bigger hands and the smaller Glocks have this problem.

Yeah, I get a little bit of it after a range session.  You can have a beavertail fabricated for it.

Yes, they make an extended beavertail, but I have never had the problem.
Change your grip?

I wonder if the metal Glock lower would solve this.

My hand has a heck of a cut in it from my 19. Shot about 150 rounds last night in practice. Drawing from holster, moving etc. It was almost healed from the week before. It has become more of a nuisance than anything.

Forgot to add. I am getting tired of cleaning the blood and meat off of the slide also.

The 9 & .40 frame size is scary close for my hand being hit by the slide.  Now I carry a G21sf with a G30sf for back up and there is plenty of room between the top of my hand and the slide.

The area will scar over soon, but seriously my 19 bites me sometimes. I wouldnt give it up though.

I have never been bitten by a Glock  I guess I must be lucky

Thankfully I have never had slide bite. In my head I have two different holds: a Glock hold and an everything-else hold.

My Glock hold literally has a few millimeters of clearance from the web of my thumb, but after thousands of rounds fired, it must be consistent because I've never had a problem.

Never had the problem.  Try adjusting your grip.
