I don't think heating and bending is practical. The Glock frame is glass-filled Nylon 6,6. The melt point is around 265 C (508 F). The material, when it melts, flows. It is not practical to "move" the plastic about to bow the guard. When it gets soft enough to move, it will simply puddle up. Nylon will burn, also, so using something like a torch is out. I would suggest finding a different gun.
