I like the grip, how is it on your hand after a 100 rounds or so. Would look good on a shield with the one piece grip they have.

Treebark ? Is this applied like a talon grip looks like the same type of thing. Where did you get it? I might like to try this on my shield!

gives you a great purchase on he firearm but not overly aggressive where it will beat up your hands , rub you raw or snag on clothing while carrying concealed.

I can personally attest to Lou's work, as I have had 5 of my 7 M&P's and one Glock 19 done by Business End Customs.
The chopped M&P's are my favorite, Lou chop's a Full size grip to that of a compact size, still allowing you to use the Hi-cap mag. The chopped gun conceals very well, shoots great and it balanced very very well. He does cerakote, stippling, and trigger work as well. Prices are reasonable turn time is good and He is a personable guy to deal with.
Check him out

Another favorable post for Lou's work at Business End Customs. After seeing MP1SG post a month or so ago showing off his chopped M&P, I knew it was what I was looking for verses a new overpriced gun purchase.

Living in Illinois and hoping to get a CCW of some sort by June, I started to plan to get ready to sort of beat the rush. I already had my 2011 M&P 40 fullsize for home defense and range play. But after the ruling I went ahead and ordered a crossbreed supertuck and belt. Once those arrived I tried messing around with holster and position and see what was comfortable and if the handgun was noticeable. Well every position I had it in there was a clear indication of the gun grip. (this was done testing clothes I would wear on a daily basis) So I decided to maybe look at a getting a shield or compact. I fired a buddy's shield and it was just to small for my hands and not comfortable. Then trying to find a compact was next to impossible, plus not really wanting 2 versions basically of the same gun. ( I know others may disagree, but I didn't see the need) So I stumbled upon MP1SG post of his posting pics, and then after a few PM's with him and then some emails with Lou, I sent him my full size frame. Got it back in about a week, and the detail is perfect looks as if it came from factory this way. It feels very balanced in my hand, I just got it back yesterday so I have not shot it yet but I am sure I will be just as happy with it. No need in me posting pics as it looks similar to the one above just no tree barking done, and you can search for MP1SG thread also.
