X-Treme Grips (Rubber) from PRP a MUST HAVE!
This has probably been beat to death already, but I just installed the Powder River X-Treme Grips Rubberized on my XDm Compact 9mm and they are fantastic! I liked the grip of this gun before but, after shooting a while, my hand would slip a bit and get a raw from all the nobs on the handle. Now after installing these grips, the gun feels pretty much perfect.
The grips along with the Pearce Grip Extensions are a great pair.
Just passin' it along!

I've seen them, and will order a set for my XDm 3.8 after Christmas.
Another Deputy does grip stippling on the side. I have a hard time doing something permanant to my pistols.

I purchased the sand traction from PRP had them on for about a month or so, took them off and put my Hogue grip back on, I def want to order the rubber ones this time and give them a try, not a big fan of the sand traction. But you cant go wrong with these grips cheap and effective acc for you gun!!

sand grips.. thinking of getting rubber for my other frame then see which i like more.. sand feels amazing for grip but catches on clothing and u don't want to rub that sandpaper on your skin or frame.

Yeah, I can't do the sandpaper stuff. This is my carry gun and it catches on clothes so I went with the rubber and it's pretty much perfect.

I have the rubber ones on a compact XDM. Really helps when using the short mag.

Here's some on mine. I put the extra little square on the right hand side as a rest for my trigger finger.

+1^^^^ Here is my PRP rubber on my XD45c. IMO the rubber is probably the best way to go for a carry gun. These don't bother me at all as far as snagging clothes or rubbing skin. But they are GREAT for a much more solid grip on the gun. Love em!
I also had the little square stuck to the right side for my index finger but my holster fits the gun so well I had to remove it as it was binding up my draw from holster.
