Recently, I have been wanting to go back to using my Smith 659 as my primary Home Defense weapon. I am fairly accurate with this gun, like the da/sa feature but I have one problem. the grip is too thick in my hand. Well, I just got spoiled with other guns that fit me better than my old 659 (I used to think nothing of it)
I think that the problem can possibly be fixed by removing some of the material in the (what feels like aluminum) backstrap on the grip. Doesn't this piece house the mainspring? If so, can it be reduced at all toward the top where the web of your hand goes around the rear of the grip?
Can the backstrap be reduced - what's the best way to go about this?
