Best Gun Grips of 2026

"Installing this grip on my KEL-TEC P17 was a creative challenge, but the result exceeded all expectations. After some trial and error, applying gun oil and microwaving the sleeve made it pliable enough to fit. Once installed, the grip gave my pistol much better accuracy, recoil absorption, and overall comfort. The beavertail design made a huge difference in stability, and the durable rubber material felt custom-made. For anyone looking to upgrade, I highly recommend it, especially if you're ready for a bit of DIY. Five stars for ingenuity and results!"

"This grip totally transformed how my Glock 43X feels in my hand. The finger grooves and palm swell are a perfect match for my larger hands. It was super easy to put on with a hair dryer, and the fit is snug and solid. I instantly loved the improved control and comfort. If you want a grip that really makes your Glock easier to handle, this is the one to get!"

"I was struggling with the slick grip on my new Glock 43X until I tried this sleeve. Despite hearing that installation might be tough, I followed the instructions—used hot water and Windex—and it went on in just a few minutes. The textured rubber is thicker, softer, and makes the gun easier to grip and control during shooting. It even improves the look of my pistol and doesn't affect concealment at all. At this price, it's unbeatable!"

"I’ve put the Talon Grips adhesive grips on my Glock 17, and the difference is immediate and impressive. Whether I’m at the range or carrying concealed, the grip never slips—even with sweaty hands. The installation was a breeze, especially after hitting it with a hair dryer, and it doesn’t add any noticeable thickness. For the price, this is a must-have for anyone who wants better control and confidence with their Glock."

"This was my second time picking up the granulated Talon Grip for my duty Glock 45. Application is quick and straightforward, and even when my hands are slick, the grip stays secure and reliable. I highly recommend these to fellow law enforcement officers or anyone looking for a simple upgrade."

"I tried out the Talon Grips Adhesive Pistol Grip on my work-issued Glock 17 Gen5, and I’m genuinely pleased. The fit is almost perfect, and while there was a tiny air bubble, it didn’t affect anything. The rough texture makes a huge difference for my small, sweaty hands, and now I feel much more secure during long use. Overall, I’d rate it 4 out of 5 stars—definitely worth it for extra grip and stability."

"I've put these grips on both my G19.3 and 43x, which I carry daily. The application is simple, and they're easy to trim for a custom fit. I like that you can reposition them before pressing down firmly and finishing with a heat gun. They're inexpensive and easy to replace, offering an aggressive texture that's great for recoil management. Definitely my go-to grip upgrade."

"As a first-time buyer, I found Talon grips to be an effective, budget-friendly alternative to stippling. Installation took under five minutes, and after using a hair dryer, the grip adhered perfectly. I appreciate that it enhances comfort and can be replaced without altering my firearm permanently."

"The grip made a noticeable difference on my Glock 48. It fit perfectly, installation was effortless, and the textured surface offers excellent control. Time will tell how it holds up, but so far, I'm pleased with the improvement."

"I was impressed by how securely this tape sticks and how pleasant it feels when holding it, especially since my palms often get sweaty. I’m hoping it leaves no sticky residue and lives up to its claims."

"This is honestly the best grip tape I’ve tried. I usually dislike grip tape, but this one sticks well, feels stable in my hand, and the cloth texture is a nice touch. I’ve used it on several guns and even recommended it to my family. Warming the tape before applying seems to help it mold even better."

"I use this tape to upgrade the grip on my polymer equipment and even on axe handles. One roll lasted a long time, and I still have extra left over. It’s a great value and works on a variety of gear."

"I'm really impressed by how comfortable and secure this grip feels on my Glock. After warming it up in hot water for a few minutes, the installation was manageable, and the fit is tight with great finger grooves. It made my pistol much easier to handle."

"As someone with larger hands, I needed a better grip for control, and this product delivered. The material is solid, and the added thickness feels just right. Installation took some effort, but using boiling water and Windex made it much easier. Definitely worth it for the improved handling."

"I put this grip on my Glock 19x and 47 without even warming it up, and it went on pretty easily. The comfort and improved grip are excellent, and it doesn't move around at all. There is a slight increase in thickness, but it's extremely comfortable."

"After installing this grip, I immediately noticed a vast improvement in how the handle fits my hand—a big step up from the stock grip. The application process was straightforward, and I appreciated that the fit was spot-on, even with the backstrap positioned high. When I did have a minor issue months later, I found their customer service to be outstanding, resolving things quickly."

"Pairing this grip with an aftermarket backstrap on my 43x made a huge difference for my large hands. The texture provides just the right amount of grip—secure but not overly aggressive, which is exactly what I was looking for."

"While I love the feel of these grips and have used them before, I noticed that the one I put on my 48 started peeling after just a few days. I followed the same cleaning and installation steps as before, so it was a bit disappointing, but at least the price is reasonable if I need to replace it."

"I really like how these give me just the right amount of extra length for my pinky, making my grip much more comfortable. They're sturdy and look sharp on my Glock. If you're new to this, I'd suggest checking out a few install videos."

"On my 43x MOS, these fit like they were made for it—snug and secure just like the original. I’ve used Pearce grips before, and honestly, these work just as well. They provide that little extra grip room I need."

"These are a great value—they’re easy to put on and add just enough room for my pinky. My fat hands appreciate the extra space! They can be a bit tough to install or remove, but that’s more of a Glock thing than a problem with these."

"I was hesitant at first because the box only mentioned the Taurus G2, but after seeing a demonstration online, I gave it a shot with my G3. After a bit of stretching, it fit perfectly. Now my pistol feels balanced and comfortable in my hand. I'm really happy with the result."

"The rough texture on my pistol used to make shooting uncomfortable, but this grip completely changed that. It’s a little hard to put on, but the extra effort pays off. The comfort and control it gives me is a total game changer."

"I have bigger hands and use these sleeves on all my pistols. They're very snug and don't move at all once installed. A bit tough to get on, but a little soapy water helps. Once dry, it stays put and feels secure, making my shooting experience way better."

"I bought this mainly to add much-needed texture to my first generation S&W Shield and to keep my newer pistols from tearing up my shirts. It performs fantastically for both purposes. I even started using it on my tools like crowbars and hammers. I’ll definitely be purchasing more."

"My husband is a deputy and he says this tape is high quality and stands up well to daily use on his gear. It’s durable and a great value."

"At first, I worried the tape didn’t seem very sticky, but after applying it to my gun grip it’s staying put and working well so far."

"After following the instructions and using hot water, I found installation was straightforward and much better than the factory grip. It does make the grip a bit thicker, but the comfort and security are excellent."

"As someone with thick, calloused hands, the Hogue HandAll Beavertail transformed the feel of my Glock. My grip feels secure and stable, the fit is tight and hasn’t shifted after hundreds of draws, and the extra grippiness really enhances control during shooting."

"I’ve put this sleeve on both my Canik TP9 SF Elite and Canik Mete SFT and they fit perfectly. The grip feels very comfortable and secure every time I pick up my pistols."
