    Those AGrip's stick on? I've used stick on's and they do "NOT" last. Starts around the edges of the grip material. Just peels away from EDC. Go with the inner tube. Don't waste you money on stick on junk.

      How do you guys get rid of the horrible smell ? I know inner tube works very well, but I cannot stand that smell which is very hard to get rid of.

        I've used the inner tube also and it works great. The Hogue hand all is nice.
        I really like LIMBSAVER much more than the Hogue or inner tube. Yes it's expensive, but it works very well, esp in small guns.

          Yep, the AGrips stick on. Mine's been carried daily for a year this month. Edges have not peeled and they've formed so well to the grip that I've had people assume that's how they come from the factory. Stick on junk?? Alright, whatever works for you. Just wanted to OP to know he has some good options to wrestling with the kahr condoms.

            Which limbsaver do you recommend for the PM45 and PM9? Noticed that the limbsaver site only shows a grip for the P45.

              I started using the old inner tube on my CW9 but quickly went back to using Talon Grips. I've used them on my XD and Glock 19 for quite awhile now. I like the granular texture which I knock down a little with some sandpaper. Talon sells a rubberized version if you prefer. Good Stuff.

                I would like to try something with a bit of a 'palm swell' like the Hogue Universal (too large) and long enough for the P45 (Jr. is too short). I have recently seen another Hogue called a Tactical Sleeve (large and small) but haven't found one in a store to see if the swell is included. Has anyone seen these?

                  I used 1 3/8" inner tube and it was a real pain to stretch it and get it on the CW45. But, it fits so tight that the stippling on the grip shows through and provides some additional non-slip function. I like that.

                  Best Regards,

                      Yup, bike tubes, clean the tubing out first.
                      I start mine just a bit on the end, then pull up the other end like you're taking off a tshirt.
                      Rolls right up, touch of adjustment and poof, instant grip.

                      I also like the Agrip for my CW9. Talk about soft and what a great grip.
                      I finally had to replace one that wore out after 5 years of constant use and carry.

                      Like someone said above, it's got a velvety feeling to it.

                          I just ordered one for my CM9, along with a Desantis Super Fly and Speer 124gr shorts.
