Bobby, get a soldering iron and do it yourself
Practice on some big legos or similar plastic first

There are a bunch of youtube videos on how to do it yourself
A Doe walks out of the woods today and says, that is the last time I'm going to do that for Two Bucks.

Yeah, not hard at all and can be kinda fun. I've done Glock's, M&P's, XD's; not rocket science at all.

Just use a mill file from China. Saves money in the long run.
Sorry. Go with Robar. I had them work on a old 17 and 23 and was pleased beyond expectations.

I just use a strip of skateboard tape on the front strap of my Glock 43, Works for me, and it simple.
If you don't like it, peel it back off!

I didn't want to wait on cold bore custom so I went with area 15. They did a good job and was impressed. Got it back less than 2 weeks. http://www.area-15.com/

I would rather not grind or heat a plastic frame. I have seen two cracked frames from people being a bit to aggressive. I go the other route and used devcon 10110 and texture it up with a sea sponge. Easy enough to knock it down when wet or dry to get the texture you want. I go heavier on the front strap and lighter on the sides so it does not eat skin or clothing.
