If it's the typical stair step stuff, you'll find that the bigger grit seems to fall off and disappear under use. The skateboard tape is finer and holds up much better. I used a 3M brand Home Depot tape a few weeks ago on a tac light and it lasted about two weeks. Nothing but the tape left and no grippy abrasive left. | |||

yes, forgot to mention that I've been talking to LOK about colors and stipple patterns. He sent me some pics of some interesting grey, solid color options. | |||

Here's a steel frame compact with Bogie palm swells.... I also had him do some solid red for me. He was very pleasant to work with. | |||

Are the palm swells that much nicer? I have the rubber version on a SP-01. They're just meh IMO. Actually the grips I was looking to replace that brought this up in the first place. A Perpetual Disappointment... | |||

For me, yes. However, I can't say you will feel the same way about them. I like the added grip with the G10 Bogies vs. the rubber. For everyday plinking, probably not a huge deal. For $65-75 it's not a huge expense and you can turn the grips over with a @ $10-15 loss in the classifieds if you don't like them. | |||

Same here. I actually like the palm swell of the stock rubber, but hate the rubber. The LOK palm swell is just about as good as it gets, for me. Q | |||

Maybe it's because I like 1911s, but flat grips don't bother me. The rounded profile of a stock P320 feels like I'm shooting a coke can. Like I said, I'm an oddball. I know it. I will likely try a pair, as most of my guns have G10 in somebody's iteration of a golf ball pattern (piranhas, recons, simonich Gunners, etc). A Perpetual Disappointment... | |||

I have aluminum grips for my CZ as well as for a couple of Sigs. Although I like the aluminum, I have come to realize I prefer the G-10 material better. Nothing wrong with aluminum, but the G-10 style will be for me going forward. | |||

They made/make wood grips as well (bought a pair about 12 years ago). Agree wholeheartedly about grips for the Compact series. Been looking at Hogue to produce them since the '90s. ----------------------------------- Regards, Steve The anticipation is often greater than the actual reward | |||
