It's easy if you have the following items and are even remotely handy.
1. Dremel (variable speed) with cut off wheels and sanding drums/plastic shaper heads
2. Punch
3. Masking tape
4. Some sort of scribe.....like a sharp ice pick or exacto knife.
5. Sand paper.
Make gun safe, remove barrel. Stuff paper towel down in mag well of G17.
Use the punch to push the pin out on the G19, and then to push the G17's out 1/2 way, and then into the open slot on the G19. Line the frames up perfectly.
Use the masking tape to delineate where the G19's grip ends on the G17. Leave a little extra on the 17 so that you can shape it after you cut.
Use the exacto knife to make any custom cut lines you want (mine has my G19 mags recessed so that the rear of the grip extends to the bottom of the base plate).
On slow speed, use cut off wheel to remove the material.
Then on slow speed, use the shaping wheel or sanding drum to get the shape just right.
Use sand paper to make the cuts and edges smooth. Test fit magazine. Do any final touches.
Bam, G19L.
