yeah, I do think it's the "depth" rather than the width that's bothering me. I'm going to grind all along the back of the pistol grip....which I hope with Fritz and Hogue's rubber grip, there wont' be cosmetic problems. I'm just worried about what's needed to grind away the Aluminum Alloy in the frame. Like I said, all I have is a B&D RTX that works just like a Dremel but with more torque. I hope it's powerful enough.

BTW, I've tried the P97 too, it wasn't that much better for my hand. And I opted for the stronger looking metal frame. I like heavy handguns, just that most big handguns' grips end up being too large in my hand.
