has anybody here used these and what do you think of them?

Tripledigitride · 04-19-2008, 04:43 PM

Yes, I have. They work very well on some firearms, and no so well on others.

JBHorne · 04-19-2008, 04:52 PM

Look at the Pachmayr as well...

Hogue grip works great on my Xd-45 Compact. I like the finger grooves on the grip better than no finger grooves on the Pachmayr. I have read that some users think they need a grip extension when carrying the short mag, buy my fingers fit great with the Hogue grip and no pinky extension on the mag.

I use Hogue grips on all my guns. Had to trim the back to clear the grip safety for the XD but otherwise it's great.

Pachmayer is available with or without the finger grooves.

I have the large size Hogues on my XD Service, & the small size on my P22. Both work great & improve the grip for me.

I have them on both my XD's.... like mentioned above, you have to cut them to fit and I've also heard that when you put them on use alcohol, when it dries the grip stays put.
