Help with pinching?

Hey everyone, i recently got my XD 45 Compact, which im super happy with..
however my only dislike of the gun is how it pinches the palm of my hand with the 13 round extended mag.
The normal 10 round mag, pinches my pinky on my trigger/strong hand, however i can deal with that. But the pinching of my palm kindof gets to me.

I fixed it while at the range last time by not using the 13 round mag, i like the 10 better anyways.. however i would like to have the option of using it and not having it pinch me.
I guess if it comes down to it, i can just suck it up but if anyone has any tips that'd be great.

Thanks

Here are a couple of older threads asking a similar question. I ended up using the bicycle innertube grip thing, and it works GREAT!

Pinching from magazine extension???

Question about my grip...

I've noticed that sliding the grip extender up the mag just a bit tightens the gap between the extender and grip, reducing the chance of pinching.

I've never been pinched myself, but my GF with her girly hands noticed some pinching once
Lay off the handlotion Francis!!
