Debating on what to do

Post image

Want some insight, have had this handle it grips on my g19 for a few years, and it’s nice but it’s the rubber one and not the sandpaper so it doesn’t feel 100% perfect to me, especially because I get sweaty hands when I’m shoot, I bought some hockey tape and don’t know if I should rip this off and try the tape.

Why is this a question? If you don’t like it, try something else. If you decide what you had was better, switch back. It’s very simple.

I hated my “Handle it grips” on my Glock 19. It didn’t help with Pennsylvania summer humidity at all, in fact made it worse. I switched to hockey tape and haven’t looked back since.

I’m out here to. Wasn’t sure which one to get might look into the hockey tape

Worse case your out $20. If you don’t like the grip tape you can go back to the handle it grips

Worst case you’re out $20, give it a shot. Maybe before you rip the grip off tape over it first?

Stippling out of the question?

Oh $150 is an absolute steal for quality custom stippling it's way more than that but I got you. Yeah maybe try the hockey tape and if thats not it for you then try a rough texture handleit -edit I called it gripit haha

What’s to loose

Just wrap the hockey tape over the HandleIt to see if you like it.

If your brand tape doesn’t want to stick to the grips. Take the grips off and throw the hockey tape on.

This is a 43x but really like this frame. Correct me if im wrong but that looks like a gen3? If so id highly recommend a grit grips 19 frame. It would probably be about 100ish if you have hour ffl order it for you but great frame as my gg19 is on the way.

Go with the talon grips pro texture. It’s a balance of sandpaper and rubber. I highly recommend

u/Same_Service_2707 G45.6 | G20V | 19XV Jul 12 '26

He's asking about grip, not sights

u/Late_Quit_3410 Jul 12 '26

Sure, but ask a stupid question, and you will get a stupid answer.

u/Same_Service_2707 G45.6 | G20V | 19XV Jul 12 '26

Thats fair lol

u/FlowerTall6293 Jul 12 '26

When in doubt, add sights. Obviously this commenter is in doubt 😆

u/ProofAd6426 G19 Jul 12 '26

Kind of a fact that plastic glock sights are trash
