Hogue Handall on a XDM .45
I just picked up a Hogue Handall Universal for Glocks and most semi-auto pistols for around $10, figured I would give it a shot. I have small hands and was worried about how the palm swell would affect my grip. I have to say I love it and it fits quite well. A little trimming off the back (about 1.5mm) so the grip safety can function and all is well.

Looks good reaper, I used the extreme grip tape. When that wears out I think I will give it a try. Thanks.

Your welcome, I had looked at the tape in the sandpaper type, but didn't want something that would eat my clothes while carrying, since this is my EDC. I was reluctant to pick this up since I had heard a lot of people say that they wouldn't fit the XDM 45. I was able to snag this from Big R and the gun counter rep said if it didn't fit I could return it so I figured I couldn't lose.

I have been wanting to put one of these on my FNP9.
FWIW, I use talon grips sandpaper texture grips on my XD. Did not shred my clothes, but it WAS rough on a winter flannel with soft inner. Tape feels great though. Everyone that holds it really likes the aggressive feel.

I've fired a couple hundred rounds through my .45 with the Hogue sleeve on it - and I like the way it feels in my hand. The problem I have been running into is that it slips a little during a shooting session and eventually it stops the grip safety from functioning (holds it "in"). I guess I need to cut a little more off of it or maybe try the trick of putting hairspray on and re-installing.
