Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best types of firearm grip enhancements for concealed carry?

For concealed carry, Handle It Elite Series or Talon Pro grips are excellent choices. They offer a comfortable, non-abrasive texture that improves grip without damaging clothing. Goon tape or hockey tape is also a great budget-friendly option for adding custom grip and recoil absorption.

How do different grip types affect recoil management and follow-up shots?

Aggressive grip enhancements like Hogue grips or goon tape can significantly absorb felt recoil. This reduction in recoil allows for better control of the firearm, leading to faster and more accurate follow-up shots, especially on thinner or harder-recoiling handguns.

Are rubber firearm grips a good option for improving grip?

Generally, rubber grips from brands like Talon or Handle It are not recommended. They tend to be slippery and can actually make the firearm harder to grip, especially under stress or in sweaty conditions, making them worse than the original grip.

What is the proper method for installing firearm grip tape or enhancements?

Proper installation involves cleaning the firearm's grip surface with an alcohol prep pad. Then, use a hairdryer on high heat to warm the grip material and the frame while pressing firmly to ensure a secure, long-lasting bond that prevents peeling.
