Grip Sleeves and other options for bigger hands?

[Husky44]

I suppose a guy could build up the backstrap and then put a larger size innertube over it to tie it all together. That would certainly add depth and very little width. I'd want to acraglas or epoxy whatever you put on the back in place so you don't count on the tube to hold it.

Actually building up the back area with acraglas alone with the black dye might work pretty darn good.

Maybe I should patent this theory before speedy gonzales kahrseye steals it and makes a million off it.


I actually have an officer with the same issue. His back up off duty is a PM9 but his fingers are so darn long they go clean through the trigger guard and he can hit the mag release easily with his trigger finger, actually thats the issue.

Bawanna, that actually sounds like a pretty good fix! Wish you'd have thought of it before I sold mine; that was definitely part of my problem... Are you always just a little too late?

I have used tennis raquet grip material and wrapped it around and round untill it was the correct thickness then put on the #2 (larger) rubber grip over it all and it never budged.

The grip material sticks to itself so it was solid, I cut several strips and built up the backstrap without increasing the width as much.

I wish I had pics but it just looked like the bigger grip was factory.

Over time, slip-on grip sleeves can stretch and slide around on the grip.

Yes. Darn near every single time. Especially the one time I thunk up something good that might have been successful. Heavy sigh........................

I just bought a qwik grip #3 for my cm9. Haven't had it to the range yet but it feels a lot better in my hand.

Son gave me an old discarded bike tube the other day and I just put a piece of it on my new CW45. Free ugly is good:
