i'm not sure exactly where you're talking about cutting the grip. i believe you're talking about cutting the "beavertail" off starting right above the web of the grip. if that's the case... i just don't think it would work.
the sub-frame notches into two little squares at the rear of the plastic frame. if these notches are removed, the subframe will only be held in place by the takedown lever. upon firing the subframe would wiggle all over the place resulting in poor accuracy right up until the plastic frame cracked.
i don't mean to be a parade rainer on-er!!!
i'm thinking hard here because it would be neat to mess around with something like that. i know of people who have filled in the web so that the back strap was smooth and know people who have removed a little material where the "humps" are that seem to eat your hand til you get some callouses.
