Happy 97b!
I have the Houge grips on mine too. They stuck a little to far down and would push against the mag during firing so I took some off with a Dremel and the hard rubber polishing wheel. It worked real fast so, if you try to modify anything that way, be extremely slow and careful. I suggest practicing on another peice of rubber to get a sense for the speed and feel of it.
Nice pics.
