I used Cold Bore Customs to reduce the grips on two guns last year (a G20 and G21). I wanted the max possible grip reduction and both turned out perfect. They fit my hand much better (almost as well as a G17/g22) and the work looks perfect. They are both woods guns so I got the tactical texture, which is very grippy, about like skateboard grip tape, I'd say. He tells you when to send in the gun so I think I was without the guns for maybe two weeks? You just send the frames regular mail, as I remember. Anyway I haven't seen other people's work but I can say CBC did very nice work, quick turnaround, what more can you ask for? This stuff is not exactly rocket science. If he has the quickest turnaround, send it to CBC and be done with it.
