Hogue G10 checkered grips have been an absolute game-changer to my ability to actually handle & shoot a P239. The pattern is pretty aggressive, which is what's making the difference (particularly the backtrap).

That's the good part.

The bad part is that the cool aggressive texture is tearing the hell out of whatever my "cover garment" happens to be (generally when carrying IWB Appendix). I got used to this when I was working and just accepted that repairing jacket linings was a cost of doing business. Now, it just makes me cranky.

Info out there is mixed as to which of the other patterns (Pirhana or Chain Link) are more or less destructive/"grippy". Any experiences here? If there's a balance in one of the other options, i'll give it a try.

Have you tried lightly sanding the grips with fine grit paper to knock down the tiny garment grabby teeth without changing the overall pattern? I think Hogue recommends this to help tune the texture.

If you want to try one of the other two, I personally have found that the Piranha grips are just a little less aggressive, yet still give you great traction. The Chain Link pattern is a little more aggressive, in my experience. The handgun grip thing is pretty personal, however. What works for one person might be different for another. So, you might want to try what RobLew suggested above first, because you don’t want to buy a new set of grips only to find out they are more aggressive than the Checkered ones.

I like the Hogue diamond cut the best! If you want grippy that is too sharp, shoot a CZ P-10, that grip is sharper than any G10! Sand them diamonds a bit, gun oil them, dry them off, probably wont even see it.

In my limited experience, both Piranha and Chain Link are easier on clothing than Checkered. I would say this is simply because the larger texture size of both results in them having much less of a sandpaper effect than Checkered.
