Any ideas

Postby MindSight88 on Mon Dec 07, 2020 2:39 pm

Greetings All, any suggestions for making my gun easier to grip? The gun has 'some' rough texture, but I think I need more. Any ideas?

Don’t you cover this in any of the firearms classes you teach?

Go ahead and laugh, but I've got Rip Van Winkle's hockey tape on a couple of my Glocks. Just love the grip it gives...
Looks like h3LL, but it's all about function, right? :?
Remember, gun control is not about guns, it's about control.

Depends on the gun. Talon grips, skateboard or hockey tape, get it checkered, or maybe just better grips, like finger groove rubber grips or whatever.

Just use super glue and stick it right to your dominant hand.

Yeah, no offense, but this really sounds like a "new shooter" question. Not one I'd hear from someone who's been teaching firearm classes for 11 years...

That being said, grip tape, hockey tape, those sandpaper type sticky patches, Hogue HandAll grip sleeves, or a good stipple job should help out.

Well to be fair, this is the same guy who asked what would be a good gun for his wife, who is a first time shooter, and has also been teaching firearms classes with him since 2014. Nothing this dude posts makes any kind of sense to me.

And he doesn't seem to follow up most of the stuff he posts.
