Debatable topic when I first started shooting I was using the standard grip texturing. For example my Gen3 17 while it feels comfortable was way to slippery when actually shooting. I spend a fews hours searching the internet to find a product to aid in better control. The first one I bought was a Hogue grip. Threw it on my 17 and honestly it felt great but the G17 it's already a big boy so add that little bit extra of a grip width it makes the grip feels almost to wide. It said it aided in recoil reduction so for $10-15. I said what the hell, so I tried it at the range. It wasn't bad, but I felt like that added width which made it uncomfortable . I found I was having to reposition my grip to much but much better control wasn't slipping. Which brought me to Talon grips! I always thought Talon grips looked sleek; so I watched a 20 minute YouTube video on which type of Talon grips to buy and I settled on the Rubberized. I put on the Rubberized and still kind of slippery but I kept them. A few months go by and I buy a gun from a member on here who had the granulated texturing on the gun I purchased. I went to the range and man do I really like how it feels! You can also rub a little sandpaper or access paper on the grip if you want it to feel less aggressive. So now go to is Talon granulated the only con is conceal carrying isn't the most comfortable; but if that is the only con I am content with that! I know stippling gives a custom feel but I can never get over ruining the aesthetic appeal of a gun. The best part of Talon grips is your not stuck using them. if you don't like them toss them and your gun will still look good. What are other people's thoughts?
