I tried to even fit the regular pin in bit j seem unable to. I can thread the admirers tool through but none of the pins

 

Its like the grip adaptor won't fit at all

 

Nevermind.. Good luck

 

I did. They said if u have a gen4 with the M or 2mm back strap you need the gen123 backstrap

 

Edited ^ lol

 

Idk it won't fit

 

Force it. They give you a couple pins just in case you break one, like I have.

I tried. My problem is not being able to get the grip adaptor to line up. Its lined up on the gun but the holes don't line up correctly. I run a punch thru and it works but the pin won't. Idk I'll try again some other time

LOL, that's what I was thinking

 

Well there's only so much I can do when I haven't gained a lot of real experience yet.

Just kidding bud, I hope you didn't take that personal.

A little bit but I get it. I'd find it funny too. Anyway but the grip adaptor just doesn't want to seem to fit in place. My mother is visiting in a week and she makes jewelry so she's used to working with small parts so I'm gonna let her take a sack at it

 

Can you put the pin in the grip force without it being on the gun? Will the extended pin fit in the gun without the grip force in place? Or, PM me with your address and I'll send you a extended pin for free from one of my Gen 4 Glocks. I don't use any of the back straps.

It fits in the gun and the Grip Force without a problem. But its like the adaptor doesn't line up with the holes on the gun

 

I had a gunsmith put in a metal pin for me. I didn't really have a problem putting the extended pins in, I had a problem with them breaking and popping out while shooting. The metal pin holds pretty good and goes in pretty easily.

Try putting the grip in some very hot water for a few minutes, then use your armorers tool to secure the grip to your gun. Your grip should be in place now, as you pull the tool out push the pin in using the pin to drive the tool out. Anyway, that's my suggestion and that's how I would try it.

That sounds good. I'll try that tonight after work

I think that this might just be the "quote of the day"

 

Gen 4 G19 with Medium back strap and Gripforce adaptor . its a B!tch to get on but it will fit man

 

Alright Idk what else to do. Three people have tries to install it, and I've had 4 hands on the gun at once. Even when all the holes are lined up, the pin won't fit through the hole it just pushes the GFA off the frame

 

Wow I sent an email to grip force and they responded within 10 minutes sending links to two very helpful videos

 

Hmm well its on!! I have a gen 4 G23 and bought the Gen123 grip cause I had the median back strap. Couldn't make it fit! However, I took the back strap off and the adapter fit perfect! No mods necessary. Its weird but its a solid fit. No wiggling. There's just a hair extra pin hanging out which I'll file down flush.

 

You didn't say you was trying to fit it on the blackstrap.....geez
