If you have read my full review on the SCCY CPX-2, then you know what a fan I am of the little gun. One of the main things I like about is the grip on it. The stippling covers just about all of the grip, and you get a really good grip purchase from it. However, from what I’ve learned from my time on Earth is that just about everything can be better. Enter the grip overlays by Traction Grips for the CPX-2.
I
have a full video showing the unpacking, installation, and very first opinions
of it on YouTube, but I will say here, that I really like these grips. I was able to get a hold of these (no pun
indented) when Galloway
Precision was gracious enough to send me a set to review. Aside from this product, they also have a
trigger kit and stainless steel guide rod for the SCCY. If you have SCCY (or other compact firearms)
you need to check them out.
Installing
these rubber grips (in either black or grey) is very straight forward. First you have to clean your grips, then peel
off the backing on the overlays, and stick them on. Sound simple?
It is. When I was a kid, I always
had a hard time putting stickers on something evenly. I can’t tell you how many model cars I put
together where the racing strips looked as if they had been put on by a drunken
person. Needless to say, I took my time
with these.
After
they are lined up in place, and stuck down well, they REALLY feel nice. As I said, you had a good grip before on the
SCCY, but with these textured rubber overlays, it now sticks to your hand. Galloway
Precision has them listed on their site for $10.50. That’s an absolute steal for something that
will give you this much control over your firearm.
I
will say that the second day I had these on my SCCY, the lower finger grove
insert has begun to peel up on both sides, as I mentioned in the video I feared
it would. It is only a matter of time before
dirt or other inside-the-pocket goodies find their way under there, and it
loses its stickiness completely.
Aside
from that, I really like these grips. If
you have a SCCY, you need these. It’s as
simple as that. You also cannot go wrong
with the price that Galloway Precision has them offered at.
Do you
have any more questions about this product?
