They come with three different ones (small, medium, large) just like the M&P.
Actually, I'm thinking the Walther P99 was the very first to have this feature...wasn't it?

That P99 is no slouch, BTW...purdy good blaster.

Just to clarify the grip differences - there are only two add on backstraps for a total of 3 sizes.
Small - This is the gun as it is made without any add-on backstrap. This is basically an SF frame for 9/.40/.357 if such a thing already existed. This differentiates it from the M&P and P99, as those backstraps are necessary components. The Glock's add-on backstraps are not necessary components.
Medium - This is an add-on backstrap pinned over the SF frame. This backstrap makes the grip the same basic size of a Gen3.
Large - This is an add-on backstrap over the SF frame. This backstrap makes the grip the same basic size of a G21.
Hope that helps.

I checked last week and the price was $438.
The Gen4 has the same thickness and without the backstraps it is .040-.050 less front to back on the grip. I have large hands and have been using my Gen4s as they are, to me its the same, I can't tell any difference.

I hear the P22 is very crappy.

I believe they were, and having owned two P99's, I can attest that they are pretty good shooters. I still suffer the occasional withdrawls and think about getting another, but then I realize that it's just a fetish for German handguns and try to get over it.
As for the 4th Gen Glocks... I'm not sold yet. I think I'll have to shoot one at some point, but I can't see dumping a perfectly good 3rd Gen just to get one.
I've had around a dozen P99's, and maybe 4 times that many GLOCKS. I much prefer the Walthers. They offer much more variability in their models. Don't get me wrong, I think the GLOCK are excellent performing firearms, but they seem to be playing catch-up to Walther on design. The head designer of the P99 used to work for GLOCK.
I want a Gen 4 G22. Anyone have one they wanna donate to a poor old school teacher? LOL.
