| I'm finding it impossible to get used to the large grip on my G20. I called glock about converting it a while back and they said no. But WTF? Can't I find a way to buy a new short frame? |

It would probably be cheaper to just get a grip reduction done, and would accomplish the same thing.
The SF frames use a different Trigger Housing, that might be one reason they said no. You'd be buying the frame and at least one extra internal part. I'd just get a grip reduction. Hell, you can do it yourself if you're so inclined. Lots of DIY instructions available online for doing this. |
| What Vini said. You'd be replacing so much that it wouldn't really be worth it. The parts that you could possibly re-use, are so cheap that you're not saving anything. Your best bet would be to do a grip reduction, or just sell your current G20 and buy a new SF. Maybe if your frame were damaged and had to be replaced you could have it replaced with an SF, but that's a risky way to have it done. |

ATF rules about changing the model number. The same reason that Ruger will no longer fit 9mm cylinders to their .357 single actions.
