I remember when I went to an indoor range to try out a bunch of pistols and when I shot the Glock 19, I remember a finger was hurting, but I don't remember which finger. I thought it was my index finger, but it was so long ago (maybe a year and a half), it may have been my middle finger.

My wife would have that problem when shooting the G30 with factory ammo. Not with the G19.

I have a rough spot right in that exact spot. If I shoot about 600 rnds it rubbs into a blister.
I think it is your grip style. My grip style works, so I deal with the blister and callous. If I'm going to be training a lot, I'll try to remember to tape it up first... I have noticed a little less with the Gen II PD trade in I bought, so I agree that you prob are getting a lot of grip on the finger grooves. Again, I'm not changing my grip, so it's deal with the rub or tape it up... |

it used to happen to me all the time for the first 5-6 range session and now I don't even notice it. Don't worry it will stop

Maybe if you use your middle finger more often it wont hurt as much. I usually practice this technique while driving to and from work in rush hour....I have no pain while I shoot.

Get out the dremel and take a little of the trigger guard off.

Same problem here. My grip style is a high 1911 type. When I started shooting my 35 I delevolped a blister on the inside of my middle finger (part closest to the trigger guard). After growing some balls I filed down the plastic in this area. And now little to no pain. When I have to shoot a students Glock 35 (stock and untooled) back comes the pain/blister.
If you shoot "a lot" of rounds you should build up some tough skin in this area. |

The finger grooves were not a big fan of the way I grip a gun. So, I took a bench grinder to it one day and ground off the grooves so my fingers could go where they needed to...... FIXED IT. Now my finger fits a whole lot better and feels great. You will still get a few rubs as you adjust to shooting, but this helped me and my preferance. I used some sand paper to smooth it up after I was done. Like I said I used a bench grinder, it isn't a science, just used some care and knocked those puppies off there. Oh yeah, Popeye used to hurt his fingers alot. He soaked them in Olive Oil.......... |

Same problem here. It wasn't a big deal when I was shooting more and doing dry fire stuff every day. Keep practicing so you'll build up a callous and then it won't hurt, as much.
