Grip Reductions
All our grip reductions include:
- Custom Fit Analysis based on your own personal grip characteristics such as whether you are a right or left handed, hand size, finger length, etc. to ensure the most effective and comfortable grip for you. We understand there is no such thing as “one size fits all”.
- Reshaping of grip. Standard grip reductions can include modifications such as removal of finger grips, slimming of grip or reducing ‘bulges’ in grip.
- Addition of permanent texturing to grip and other key contact points such as trigger guard area and thumb positioning areas.
The price for a standard grip reduction is $125. See below for the various options we offer such as magwells, beavertails, palm swells & duracoating.
Texturing

All of our grip reductions include texturing. We offer 4 standard types of texturing, but can customize to use different levels of texturing. The parts we texture typically includes the front strap, back strap, grip sides, trigger guard as well as contact points for fingers or thumb forward of the trigger guard. (Note: Some images show optional features)

Description & Options |
Grip Reduction with Competition Texture
|
The most aggressive texture designed to give the competitive shooter the extra edge while shooting. Coarse “sand like” grip material provides the best possible grip under all shooting conditions. |
Grip Reduction with Tactical Texture |
The tactical texture is similar to our competition texture with a slightly less aggressive texture. It also has a more matte black finish more suited to tactical use. This is suited for competition, military or law enforcement use. |
Grip Reduction with Rough Carry Texture |
The lighter, smoother ‘pebbled’ carry texture provides increased grip control while still allowing for comfortable carry. |
Grip Reduction with Smooth Carry Texture
|
The most subtle texture possible to provides increase grip control with just a minimum of 'pebbling' over the standard grip. Popular with female shooters and for concealed carry use since it provide the least possible risk of irritation against skin or damage to clothing. |
Grip Reduction with Hybrid Texture
|
Design your own custom hybrid texture. We can use a combination of different textures to suit your needs. Hybrid is a popular option for concealed carry using a more aggressive texture on the front and back of the grip, but a smoother carry texture on the sides of the grip for increased comfort. |
| Stock Pistol Grip Texture |
If you do not want a full grip reduction, but still want the added benefits of texturing, you can add any of our textures to your stock pistol grip with no other modifications.
Included with any Grip Reduction. $50 without Grip Reduction. |
| Rifle, Shotgun & Knife Texturing |
Ask for details. We can texture just about any surface to fit your needs. |
Extended Magwells
Our custom built extended magwells provide many benefits.
- All surfaces are smoothed to ensure no catch points or sharp angles as with many standard factory grips.
- Our magwells are permanently embedded into the structure of the grip to provide maximum reliability unlike temporary screw-on magwells.
- Magwells provide a larger, more forgiving ‘target area’ for your magazine during reloads. This not only allows for faster reloads, but also more accurate reloads in high stress situations.
- Magwells help to naturally position your hand higher on the grip, resulting in a more stable and secure grip.
- Can be custom designed based on your personal needs, comfort and expectations.
Extended magwells are only available when purchased along with a grip reduction to ensure the magwell is blended perfectly into the structure of the grip and ensure maximum stability. Magwells can be added to a grip reduction for $50.
Competition Magwell |
Large magwell funnel provides for quickest tactical reloads. Can be designed to meet IPDA standards or can be made larger for IPSC or other shooting venues. |
|
Tactical Magwell |
Slightly smaller magwell then our competition one. Popular for law enforcement or military use. |
|
Carry Magwell |
Provides the benefit of a more subtle magwell funnel at the front and rear of the grip without additional width on the sides that can make concealed carry more difficult. |
|
Beaver Tails
Our Beaver Tails provide many benefits.
 |
- Help ensure a good, solid, high grip on the gun for better control. A more solid grip helps prevent the need for 'readjusting' your grip while shooting so you always keep your optimal grip.
- Provent"slide bite" by forcing your hand to always stay below the slide as it cycles.
- Better recoil control by maximizing surface area contact.
- Our Beaver Tails are permanently embedded into the structure of the grip to provide maximum reliability.
- Beaver Tails can be as subtle or extreme as you‘d like. We offer 3 sizes that can be customized to your requirements. The most extreme is the Competition Beaver Tail, which can be 3/4 inch or larger. The next smaller size is the Tactical Beaver Tail. The smallest is the Carry / Duty Beaver Tail, which is best suited for concealed carry or use with a duty rig.
|
When purchased with one of our grip reductions, beaver tails are just $25. They can also be added to your stock grip for $40.
