I did what some have said and that was to wrap that finger around the trigger instead of using the pad, and my groups were centered alot better. The 17 was no problem but the 19 put that middle finger knuckle right in to the trigger guard which made it a little uncomfortable to shoot. I'm going to hate doing an undercut to a new gun but if that what it takes to make it an EDC that I can practice with without pain then so be it. Thank you gentlemen.

Nice. Yes I was several disappointed after I bought my first glock, that is until I moved my finger tip over just a little bit

We're talking about a right-handed shooter, correct!  You don't need to wrap your trigger finger knuckle like that!  Simply move your trigger finger over just a little bit, and apply pressure to the left edge of the trigger's face as you pull.  Alternatively, you can also stiffen your support elbow, and lower your right elbow (a, 'Reverse Chapman Grip') in order to pull your shots more towards the right; or else apply more pressure with your (left) support hand in order to prevent your, 'preignition flinch' from causing the muzzle to break towards the weakest part of your (right) gripping hand - the tips of your grasping fingers, OK.  

There's also other things you can do to improve a factory-stock Glock's atrocious trigger pull like:  using a lightweight connector, and  dremel-polishing  the action.  These things said:  I have never before seen or heard of anyone undercutting the inside of a Glock's trigger guard in order to more comfortably shoot the gun.  As far as I'm concerned such a drastic action is ingenuous; and I have to imagine your Glock is going to significantly drop in value if you do something like that.

I appreciate all your help but as far as undercutting the trigger guard, the gun is a tool, my tool, I will most likely have this tool for a long time and when I get rid of it I'm sure will have gotten my money's worth out of it. I do thank you for your help.

why no try drifting the rear sight to the right to compensate for your shooting style first?

I tied that last night with a bit of dry fire practice and it noticeably helped the little bit of left shift you could see I had. Thanks for the good tip.ill have to continue to conciously continue to do this.

You might also want to replace the serrated "target" trigger in the 19 with a flat trigger like your G17 has. I like the flat trigger much better and have changed out the "target" trigger on my G19, G23, and G27 with good results.

Yes, already had been thinking of doing so.
