I am using a Kimber Ultra Carry CDP and while training the aluminum checkered back strap is digging into the pinky side of my palm and after 500 rounds it almost digs a hole in that cushioned side of the palm.

My question is, should I train the grip to go into the seam of the palm, have a softer back strap installed or just shut up and take it like a man?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated (except the "shut up..." part) as well as offers to take this gun off my hands for a Glock 30 + other gun.

Thanks in advance,

Paul

I would first have someone check my grip. If your grip is good try a different set of grips with palm swell (Hogue and several other mfgs make them and they aren't expensive).
