Question on grip

[hundreddollarman]

I use the thumbs forward grip when holding my handgun (Beretta PX4), but the fingernails on my shooting hand tend to dig into the palm of the supporting hand. Is there something wrong with how I'm gripping or would a handgun with a thinner profile eliminate this problem?

This happens to me too, you are not alone. Just tagging along for any advice!

Do your fingers extend more or less than this around the grip

My fingers are about a half-inch farther into the grip than what's pictured.

Gripping a gun is like gripping a gold club, if it's comfortable you are doing it wrong.

I let my support hand (left) do the heavy lifting. I find it easier to control the trigger if I have a more relaxed hold with my right hand.

Oh yeah and trim your nails.

Are you pushing forward with your left hand against the tips of you right fingers?

Also OP maybe dont grip so hard.. Then your nails/fingers wont dig so bad.

A bit. My hand feels like it's just floating when I just press it against the gun.

You should only be exerting lateral pressure with you left hand...it should be pressing on the top of your right hand's fingernails.

Your right hand shouldn't be exerting any lateral pressure on the grip
