Grips

Recoil control starts with the way the gun sits in your hand. A replacement grip changes the texture under your fingers, the thickness of the frame and the shape against your palm, and each of those changes how quickly the sights settle after a shot. All the grips here are made by Toni System in Italy.

Why shooters change grips

For friction: a textured surface keeps the hand in place when it sweats and the gun recoils. For a repeatable hold: a contoured grip guides the hand to the same spot on every draw and after every reload. For trigger reach: a thinner grip shortens the distance to the trigger, which helps smaller hands. For comfort: a palm swell spreads pressure over long sessions.

The grip types

3D and X3D are contoured polymer grips with a palm swell that fill the hand; some come slim or thick, so you pick the circumference. Vibram grips are thin, rigid aluminium panels with a machined Vibram traction face; they slim the frame and do not swell with oil or solvent. Track grips are textured polymer, including a wraparound version that covers the whole grip and still works with standard holsters. High-grip panels are machined aluminium for Tanfoglio large frame pistols. Adhesive grips are a thin abrasive film that sticks onto the factory grip with no tools and peels off again, the usual choice for polymer pistols with no removable panels.

Grips and magwells go together

On the 1911 our grips come long and short, and each 1911 magwell matches one grip family, Vibram or X3D, so choose both as a pair. There is also a one-piece polymer 1911 grip with the magwell built in. If you plan a Magwells upgrade later, pick the grip with that in mind.

Find your gun

A grip is shaped to one frame, so choose by brand and model: Grips for 1911, Grips for Beretta, Grips for Canik, Grips for Glock, Grips for HK, Grips for HS Produkt, Grips for Phoenix, Grips for Sig, Grips for Springfield, Grips for Tanfoglio and Grips for Walther. Most panel grips fit with a screwdriver in a few minutes; adhesive grips need only a clean, dry frame.

Frequently asked questions

Thin or thick grip?

Thin if you want a shorter reach to the trigger or have smaller hands. A thicker, contoured grip fills a large hand and spreads recoil. Where we offer both, the product page lists the dimensions.

Will an adhesive grip damage my frame?

No. It sticks to the surface and can be peeled off without permanent change. Clean and degrease the frame before you apply it.

Do aluminium grips get slippery?

The Vibram and high-grip panels have a machined traction surface, so metal does not mean smooth.
