Glock 20 doesn’t feel right

[Tracker0721]

I decided to get a better bear gun this year than the 9mm I was using so I stepped from my S&W mp 2.0 to a Glock g20 10mm. Sadly sold the 9 to buy the 10 and after going all season with my Glock and firing hundreds of rounds at the range I can confidently say I don’t like how it holds. It’s not comfortable, still doesn’t point naturally for me, and I just feel like my hand doesn’t get enough grip on her. And I wear a large glove so it’s not a small hands thing. Is there any way to modify the grip or is there a better 10mm? Heard shaving the finger grooves off and taking a bit away from the trigger guard can help.

Or should I go back to a revolver? I really loved my gp100 but it was a long barrel and more competition than self defense in size. We’ve got more then a couple Grizzlies in areas I’m hunting and the wolves, black bear, and lions are thick too. Considering going 44 in a revolver maybe. I dunno. Just making next year Idaho plans and am thinking about things I’d like to improve for next season.

That's a bummer.
I LOVE my G20. 

Personally, I think a 10mm semi beats a 44 revolver for bear defense, but more experienced folks than me fall on both sides of that debate.

If it was me, and I had Grizzly concerns, I'd find a 10MM I liked.

Best of luck!

I tried a 20 and a 29. Even a Witness. Swore off the 10mm until the XD came out. This one feels great and shoots great too.

My  , go with SIG better grip angle and less felt recoil.

I thought i wanted a g20.  Handled one and really wanted to like it, but it just didnt feel right in my hand.  If it doesnt fit you, you wont shoot it well.  I carry a s&w 627 pc, .357 with an 8 round cylinder.  .357 is very similar, maybe has a slight edge on 10mm, and i figure if 8 shots doesnt save my ass in a bad situation, im screwed anyway.  Carry what fits and works for you.

I personally shoot the XD better than I did my G20 and G40

Personally I would avoid altering a pistol that you've already stated isn't really your thing. Glocks fit well for me and point naturally but I still don't own one. There are so many other options to try. If a revolver feels good to you, go with it. As was pointed out, if you can't shoot what you carry you're setup for failure. As the old saying goes, you only get attacked by a grizzly once so don't ruin it. Or something like that. Let us know what you decide it might help someone in the same boat.

Smith 629 4 inch. Daily carry for me.

What gen G20? I think gen 4 has the swappable grip backstraps, I have a gen 3 and it fits  my hand much better then a 4 (not sure what backstraps were on it from the shelf)
I do think the XD feels good in hand also..

I had a G20 and had the same exact issue you are describing. I sold it and bought the Springfield XDM 10mm. It's grip is more natural in my hand and I'm more accurate with it. Also, you can shoot whatever bullets you choose without buying an aftermarket barrel.

Love mine I put the hogue slideon grip on and a set of trujiis
If you dont like it
sell it, should go quick

The grip "angle" is inherent to all Glocks.
Some like it, some don't mind it, some hate it. It is the single biggest cause to the Glock limp wrist" issue causing "stovepipes". Glock makes great reliable weapons, but the wrist angle just does not work for many people.

If I didnt have the G20 -Id be all over this

Yes, modifying the grip will help some.  Send it somewhere to be sanded down and put some skate tape on it.  Dryfire will help the most.

Only logical choice is sell the Glock and buy a 10mm 1911 Longslide
