This is EXACTLY what I am looking for as well... I DO NOT want to change my grip to accommodate this one firearm, where as, I hold ALL other handguns with the same PROPER grip.

Will do, I'll get the wife to take some pics as both my hands will be on the firearm. However, if you google "proper shooting grip" there are a TON of pics the demonstrate the proper handgun shooting grip if you don't know what it looks like.
Basically, like I tell all my students:
1. Primary hand on the pistol's grip. Don't have a gap between the top of your hand and the top of the backstrap, be choked up on it.
2. try to have the pistol in the straight line from your hand down your arm. If your hand is too small, this may not be possible.
3. Support hand should wrap its fingers over the primary hand's fingers on the grip, and try to have as much of the meaty part of your palm (by the thumb) making contact with the grip of the pistol.
4. Place support hand thumb along the frame of the pistol below the slide. When looking from the TOP down, your thumb should be pretty much even with your trigger finger along the frame on the other side when not shooting.
4. Place the primary hand's thumb laying over the support thumb, making sure to not inadvertently activate or hold down the slide stop.
Many people get Glock bite, but I have never. This firearm is the first one that I've gotten the bite from..
I have "medium size glove" hands, and historically have always described myself as having "small paws" so it isn't like I have huge fatty mitts that are bunching up by the slide to get bitten.
