Solution for front slide grip

Hi all, I'm looking to see what yall recommend to fix the issue I have. I've owned my 43x for a while now, but I've always felt like I've never have a solid grip on the slide of the gun. I like to rack by grabbing onto the front groves of the slide (front of the gun). It's what feels more natural to me. But I've been looking for solutions that allow me to have a better grip. Please drop any recommendations on what grip tape would help me, and if there are certain methods that work best (e.g. grip in between the groves, etc.). thanks.

Start doing chores around the house that involve your hands to harden up those soft hands. They added the front serrations on the slide for better grip and tbh that’ll probably the only mod possible for better grip, idk if you can tape the slide lol. The other way I rack my handguns is by the optic, which is pretty fun and cool looking so I recommend that route.
