OK, I'll play!!
The Cabinet Man here...
Below is my "on the body" carry rig:

That's a Springfield Armory XDm in 45 ACP. It rides in a Blade-Tech IWB holster with pull-the-dot loops. The spare mag and a Surefire Z2 Combatlight ride in a Blade-Tech combo pouch. All of that gets strapped on with a Wilderness Tactical 1-1/2" polymer-lined Frequent Flyer belt. The rig conceals pretty well as long as I'm wearing baggy shirts or a vest/jacket. It's surprisingly comfortable, too!

Carry rigs
SaysUncle asks, "what's your carry rig?"
Milt Sparks Summer Special above, Dillon kinda Yaqui slide below.
Biter the stainless Commander is comfy in either. She rode in the Sparks all day today.
El Paso Saddlery two-mag carrier (from CheaperThanDirt) not shown.
And visible in the upper edge of the pic is the steel cable for the Center-of-Mass in-car safe, which is indispensable.

No irreversible damage
The cheap milsurp plastic grips on Beater the utility blaster cracked, right across the panel, through the upper screw hole. Both panels.
A cast-aside 6' slab of 1/4" Lexan was looking at me from the corner of the garage, like the Cheetos cheetah: "you know you want to do it."
I hacked out two pieces about the size of M1911 grip panels, and started rasping away anything that looked like it didn't belong there.
The WECSOG grip panels aren't done. They are fitted to the frame, with the countersinking and the relief for the detent plunger doodad, and the outline. But the contouring is only begun.
When it is to the desired contour, it will be stippled for texture.
