Talon Grip Tape Any Good?
I've got a 320 .45 compact on a small grip module. I'm a .45 guy, the factory texture to me sucks. Has anybody used the talon grip tape? Or, know of anyone doing stippling for a reasonable cost?
Love the gun, hate the grip.

Have Talons on all my plastic guns from HK,Sig etc. great fit and function. Use a hair dryer to “set” them

I've lost count of the number of Talon grips I have bought over the years. Applied properly they last a long time. I roll over them with a C or D battery and use a heat gun on low to set it. Getting the frame clean before applying is the most important part.

For a 320 I would consider stippling (or buy an aftermarket module) but I wouldn't do it on a non-removable grip like a Glock.

I have Talon on a few of my pistols and really like it. More grip, doesn't add a lot of bulk, inexpensive and lasts a long time. My girl likes the talons on her Shield, too.

And if you dont like them, its easy to remove.

Certainly an improvement on the P320. I have them on my Kahrs & Glocks. Better than an expensive stippling job…

I love my Talon grips. Always get the rubber version. Easy to install and fast shipping. Don’t always use the hair dryer.

I've haven't found anyone who makes an aftermarket module for the 320 .45
Do you know?

Talons are on my P220 and P239. Great stuff. They also make a rubber strip for the smooth front grip strap on the 1911. I use it too.
I have had no luck finding aftermarket grip modules for the .45 P320.
Hello, Wilson? Are you there?

I like them. Use them on my PX4, the "Pro" model Talons, which is kinda a combo of the griptape version & the rubberized version.

I have some on my Gen 5 Glock and it totally changed the gun for the better. I love the Gen 5 but the grips are too slick and moved too much in my hand until I added the grip tape. I’m definitely a fan.

I added some to my PS4 controller too and am happy with that addition as well.

I use the granule sandpaper ones on my clutch pedal. Sticks well and nice and grippy

I have the Talon Pro grips on my HK45C. They are a tremendous improvement.

Great idea!
My girlfriend kept dropping her firestick remote so I put some on the back. She loves it.
