The size of the frame is the same now as when you purchased it. The grip panels themselves are very thin and do not allow for much reduction, short of grinding off the grip screw escutcheons and checkering the frame itself. The original frames were even larger and more squared on the corners. There are a couple of companies that reduce the frame by grinding off material and checker the frontstrap, I have one and it feels good, but I am not sure I would do that to a special piece like this.
Still shooting Weaver? I hear that there is a new thing called Isoceles.

I'm going to give the pistol about 300 more rounds before I contact the factory. I might have been quick to blame the mags, I am almost conditioned to assume factory mags are garbage as I have experienced and vicariously felt that problem with other 1911 models.
I'm with you on feeling reluctance to modify the frame of this piece. I just want to dial in my group without adjusting my point of aim. It may just take some more experience with the weapon as I am used to firing a Kimber and Sig, both single stack.
I shoot both isoceles and weaver. I've heard so many arguments and I think each has its pros and cons. Maybe with this firearm I would be better served with an Isoceles. I think it is easier and more stable just less mobile. Thoughts?
