    Do you think the qwikgrip would need to be trimmed for a Crimson Trace laser install?

      Not according to the fellow who tried that combination several weeks ago and posted a picture of the two together. He said they fit together well with no modifications.

      Edited to add a link to his post: http://kahrtalk.com/showthread.php?t...ight=qwik+grip

          Anyone else interested can visit http://www.qwikgrip.com/page2.htm for sizing details.
          I got one for my CM9. It Fits perfectly, just as in the photo. When I got it, it was kind of whitish and oxidized looking. So, as I wipe my pistol with a silicone cloth, I wipe the grip, too. It makes the rubber darker and fresher looking. (I wipe the polymer, as well. It makes it look better, too)

          Thank you, TucsonMTB, for the recommendation!
          Very interesting...

            My pleasure, JFootin! As delightful as your well polished toy is, it deserves the most elegant grip solution possible.

            It's good to hear that the molding residue wiped right off. The fellow who distributes these is very conscientious . . . to the point that he sent me a replacement for a miss-packaged (wrong size) grip I received from Lone Wolf, even though it was not his fault!

            I am hopeful he gets his order process worked out soon (probably eBay) so that more people can conveniently enjoy this attractive grip solution.

              Yeah, Barry is a nice guy. I hope he gets his ordering worked out, too. I had to mail him a personal check, but he turned it around pretty quickly.
              Very interesting...

                I sent him a money order and same thing- I had the 3a grip for my PM9 within a week. I wish I had ordered a spare just to keep on hand. I like it much better than the Hogue Handall Jr.

                  I wish they still made the Butler Creek ones, like in my picture. I only have one left! They are the thinnest I have ever seen.

                    Nice! They certainly appear to be very thin.

                    Do you know what size yours are? When I bought mine, Butler Creek marketed their grips as "Uncle Mikes". I still have a couple of "Uncle Mikes" "Universal Slip-On Custom Grade Grips for small to medium frame autos" new in the package. The package is labeled "#59601 Small". They fit my Kel-Tec P-3AT perfectly and might stretch enough to go on the PM40, but I am afraid to try. It would be a shame to destroy one of the last pairs I know of.

                    The ones I have measure 0.050" in thickness, relaxed and just out of the package. The Qwik Grips for my PM40 are pretty close at 0.065" in thickness measured with the same cheap, dial-indicating calipers.

                    Part of the difference may be that the edge of the Qwik Grip has a rounded bead, unlike the entirely flat edge of the "Uncle Mikes". Also, the Qwik Grip rubber material feels a little more dense. But, they are both very thin and smooth once installed on their respective pistols.

                    If your Butler Creek grips ever need replacement, I think you might be happy with a Qwik Grip.

                      I know they are size small... I will check the packaging for the part number.

                        me too

                        I bought the same grip for my PM9. It made it a better gun for sure.

                          Ruger LC9 grip?

                          The web site does NOT list a size for the Ruger LC9. Does anyone know if there is a model available and that the web list is just out of date?

                            That might be a good question for Barry <qwikgripusa@yahoo.com> . . . the owner.

                            I'm guessing a size 2 would work because it fit my CW40 so well and they are similar in dimensions, I believe. But, Barry is more likely to know than I am.

                              So thin the grip texture prints through it.
