I just recently purchased the Talon Grip for my G19.4. I had a conversation with one of the fellas that works there and suggested the rubber grip. He said in his opinion that they were all around better than the skateboard tape styled due to the fact a lot of officers mentioned that the grit tape would overtime eat through any type of fabric that it came to. Also, the rubber wouldn't ride and catch your shirt as much. Has anyone had any experiences with the rubber talon grips?
I hope i made the right choice with choosing the rubber. My dad always told me to use rubbers when in doubt... |

Quoted:
Any of the sandpaper type grips will suck for a carry gun. It is hard on clothing and harder on skin. The first USPSA match I shot with grip tape on my gun, my forearm was raw by the end of the day from brushing against the grip as I walked around the range. ![]() Ouch. sounds like a made a wise choice of going with the rubber instead or sand! |
| I love the grit grips the best, however I now use the rubber one on my g19 for carry. I switched for carry because the grit would sometimes catch on clothing and ride up, leaving me unaware of an obvious gun under my shirt. I didn't notice the grit against my skin though, like some people worry about. |

The guy at Talon said that using 120 grit sandpaper lightly on the skateboard tape grip would help smooth it down some to cause less shirt grabbing and less coarse. I was just a little hesitant at first about the rubber, because I wondered if it was really tacky and would allow any and everything to cling to it. such as lint, dirt, sand, clothing, etc. The grip will be here next week. |
