| has anyone ever modified the checkering on their grip or sanded it down to reduce the discomfort? I mean aside from adding the typical hogue grip. |
The checkering is awesome, if you dont shoot a lot of rounds ie 100rds or so. Once i hit the 250-300 range, my palm looks like it's banged with a meat tenderizer.  Thank goodness for the Hogue slip. |
The rough grip isn't that bad on USP's. Are you sure it's not somehow shifting around in your handor something? What calibur are you using? I've shot my dad's .357 Sig USPC and have never had a problem with the grip, but then again everyone is different. |
| I would suggest useing a small artist brush and paint the checkering with some black latex paint. Basically fill in the checkering. Try it and since it can be easily reversed there is little risk or damage to value or condition. Sanding will produce a lighter shade to the plastic I suspect turning it grayish as with other plastic parts I have sanded. |
