Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best grip materials for concealed carry?

For concealed carry, G10 grips are highly recommended due to their durability, excellent grip in all conditions (wet or dry), and resistance to wear. While rubber offers good grip and recoil absorption, it can cling to clothing in hot weather. Wood grips are aesthetically pleasing but can become slippery and require maintenance.

How do rubber grips perform for everyday carry?

Rubber grips provide a solid feel and absorb recoil effectively, making shooting more comfortable. However, in hot and humid conditions, they can become 'smooshy' and cling to your body and clothing, which can be a drawback for concealed carry.

What are the advantages of G10 firearm grips?

G10 grips are exceptionally durable, often described as virtually indestructible. They offer a superior grip, even when wet or sweaty, and come in a wide variety of textures and colors. The color is molded throughout the material, so scratches don't reveal a different color underneath.

Are wood grips suitable for concealed carry?

While wood grips offer a classic aesthetic and a solid feel, they are generally less practical for concealed carry. They don't absorb recoil well, can become slippery with sweat, and are prone to cracking over time, which can cause discomfort against the skin.
