I understand the 17 to 19 but not the 19 to 26. Yep advantage in concealment. But for me it's not a just a slight advantage, it is a very noticeable difference. Conceal ability of a 26 with the barrel length and sight radius of a 19. Really the same exact concept as the 17 to 19 chop just different scale. For me, and I'm sure most, will find it much easier to conceal the 26 grip length vs the 19. In my Eidolon holster this thing disappears under a t-shirt |

You obviously still have the option to carry it with the larger magazines. |

I took a straight edge and drew the dividing line with a pencil. Then I hit the area with a dremel and sanding drum to pull off a good amount of material. Then I followed up with sandpaper over a file to make it even (just because I didn't have a small piece of wood that would work). Did that in varying grits until it got mostly smooth. There are one or two gouges where I hit it a little deep with the initial sand that I'm going to try to touch up. I really just kind of took a stab at it. |

I see a lot of people doing some work under the trigger guard on the outside, but has anyone done work inside of the trigger guard to allow for a thicker gloved finger to squeeze in? Just curious as I am finding that to be an issue with the cold weather. If I wear a glove that actually keeps my hand warm, I move the trigger rearward on insertion, not enough to fire, but takes away that sliver of possibly real life trigger safety, or perhaps it's all mental.

There is some material to remove, obviously, but I don't think you would have enough to meaningfully do the inside and outside, except for opening up the inside along the front and bottom and then the trigger to frame undercut. Could still get rid of the front indexing nubbin if you wanted in pretty much any case. |
