I grew up shooting 1911's, continued to shoot them  in USPSA-IPSC and [cough] IDPA, and sometimes CCW

I've always liked the Glock design, but hate the grip

Decided to try the Brownells  grip reduction method to remove some of the goofy luger grip angle

Before:

Gen2 G23 $329 Summit gun broker.

I used Epoxy from the hardware store











Compared to my 1911



Dupli-Color truck bed coating, applied with a sponge.











next step is replacing the cheezy plastic factory sights

Very nice, OP.  I have an early Gen 2 23 w/ night sights.  Prints nicely in blue jean pockets.

I'm getting better at the grip angle.  I think it's not as distinct of a difference on the G26.  Which is what I have.  Pointing with the thumbs really helps.  It's just a mental thing to try and remember.  But it gets easier with time.
