I have XXL hands and that little wedge at the bottom of a full size 1911 gets old after a full day of shooting. Would the little trim be worth it on a full size or just go with a full Bob? I love the feel of my V-bob, but it's on a Commander length Valor, so it looks proportionally correct.


I've owned "Bobtail" Dan Wessons as well as "Rounded Butt" Wilsons.

I did NOT like the hand feel of the "bobtail". It felt like the gun wasn't filling the annular space between my palm and the MSH.

I didn't notice any hand feel difference on the rounded butt guns, but it definitely helps with preventing "printing" while carrying concealed.

I wear a size large glove for reference.
