Rubber overmolded grip for Kahr P9 Suggestions
I used to carry a P9 wayyyy back and stopped after an altercation got me rethinking about capacity, accuracy etc. I carry a XDM-45 3.8 now but on occasion could use a slim pistol like the P9.
The P9 was always 100% reliable but I could not shoot it accurately because of the slim grip. I'm looking to revisit this by adding a grip sleeve/overmolded grip. I have medium sized hands and would like to get full purchase on the grip. Looking at Pachmayr and Hogue. Any suggestions? Pictures help too! |

I've used both successfully, but it's all about how it feels to you. Depending on the gun, grip sleeves can feel too blocky to me.
I've also used Talon Grips, which I highly recommend. Just enough increase in size, and better grip texture, to make a big difference. I strongly prefer the rubber over the granulate which can be hard on shirts. https://talongungrips.com/gun-grips/...9-cw40-p9-p40/

I think I would choose Talon Grips over a slip on.

I've never had good results with sleeves, they seem to want to twist. Talon grips for sure. I like the rubber rather than the granulate type.

I have two CM's. I like the granulated. Really provides a solid grip. Actually, I do not buy the full grip, but will just buy sheets and place were I want them. And can get more life and use the materal for other things as well.
That said, they now make a new product that is a cross from the Granulated and the rubber. Personally I would forget the Over molded Grip sleeve. I like the thin design of the gun just the way it is. |
