[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Best grips for carry gun? (checkered grips are too abrasive)

Posted: 4/9/2006 8:55:56 AM EDT

I carry my compact in a SOB holster, and the wood checkered grips end up irritating my skin. Who makes a smoother grip (I would prefer black.) that won't tear up my back?

Thanks,
Kris

I really like the checkering on the almi grip and they offer half checkerd and smooth also

You would probably prefer the paper micarta gator grips from VZ. They provide a good grip without being abrasive.

I have the Falcon Ergo XT Grip. I really like them. They have a skateboard tape pattern to them. They offer a good grip for me, but not too abrasive for concealed carry.
