I use the Talon rubberized to tame the cheese grate grips on my P365. On bare skin they were really tearing me up. My dermatologist asked what was wrong with my skin. I told her and found out she is a gun lover too.

 

For half the price I go with the rubberized Traction Grips, now apparently owned by Garrison Industries. If I'm going to carry against bare skin, they help reduce chafing with both my G27.4 and my G42 (which has a less aggressive OEM texture). I like having that commonality between my two CC guns (27 and 42). I've kept the OEM texture on my G23.4 because it's mostly used for HD and cool weather carry with a shirt between the grip and my skin.

 

I use rubber Talons on most of my polymer framed handguns. I throw away the little towel they provide and do a thorough job of cleaning the grip with 90% alcohol and a napped wash cloth. Do it twice and let set for some minutes to dry. Then use a hair dryer to put them on. Mine have worked great on both my range guns and carry guns.

Good product and good people to deal with.

 

 

I put one on my (gen 1) 9mm PC Shield. Huge improvement, imo.

 

I have them on my Walter ops m2. The rubber ones are perfect.

 

I have had them on several guns and now on only one CC gun.
These have been on almost 6 years and were originally put on because the PPS M1 model has a removable backstrap that deactivates the striker when removed and all the "gun guru's" seemed to worry about dropping the gun and having the backstrap come loose. The Talons help prevent that rare and over hyped occurrence from happening I suppose but, the magazine inserted does the same thing as the Walther (like the Glock) has a magazine over insertion stop.
I prefer the rubber over the sandpaper type. The key is to follow the directions and clean the gun with rubbing alcohol and heat with a hair dryer after install and they will last many years.

 

I have them on all of my Glocks used in competition. Don't like them as much for EDC unless I have a shirt under the grip.
Did you "bake" them in the oven, or with a hair dryer, to set them? It does help.

 

I like them but have found I only really need them on the Gen 3 models.

 

I have a set on my Springfield XDs and I'm favorably impressed.

 

I like them to the point that I keep a spare set. I have had them eventually (2-3 years of EDC) perl off. I hated the work i had to go without them. So i keep extra.

Been using the Talons for many years...no issues. Favorites are the granulated which I hit with a little sandpaper before installing to take off the real bite spots. Hopefully you hit em with a hairdryer or heatgun to really lock them in.

 

I have no problem with Glock grips as produced. Even the finger grooves fit me fine. It's not the grips, it's the holder that all wrong.

 

I heard about them for years from Hickok45 and many others. Finally thought I’d give them a go. I put them on my G36 and G43x..

To make a long post short... Very impressive. I’ve had them on my guns for a total of 15 minutes now and I’m sorry I didn’t try them sooner. WOW! Especially on the Glocks that aren’t the most ergonomic friendly grip..

FYI,

Todd

Thought about the Talon grips but decided on stippling for my 43x instead.
