It really depends on many things. I've had them on duty weapons for many years, and on one CCW I carried off duty for over a decade, with daily use.The biggest thing is ensuring the surface is properly cleaned and all oily residues are removed before installing the grip, and to not touch the adhesive side while installing the overlay, since skin oils can ruin the adhesive, and the pressure sensitive adhesive will lose its ability to hold if you pinch an edge and apply pressure to it directly with your fingers. With pistol models like the Bodyguard 2.0, the frame texture also requires the overlay be heated and firmly pressed into the texture to ensure the adhesive isn't just floating on the tips of the frame stippling. Not heating and forming the grip tape overlay is the biggest cause of failure with models such as this one. Something else to consider if the position of the holstered firearm will place it where it is moving around and constantly rubbing against the body or tight fitting clothing, especially where a lot of sweat may accumulate. I've always carried at roughly 4 o'clock on my side, which doesn't put a lot of pressure on the grip tape, since everything stays pretty much in one place. Some other things that can effect the life span would be temperatures, exposure to solvents, and odd things like wearing gloves and repositioning the firearm in the hand a lot with training, which might apply more friction to the surface. We do offer various materials that use different adhesives, or tend to stick better to different firearms surfaces better than others. With the bodyguard 2.0 and its aggressive stippling, I've found the Thin Dots 2.0 material, Micro Knurled Rubber, and Carbon Fiber pattern rubber grips do the best. The adhesive is a little thicker and flows into the stippling really well, allowing it to grab on to the fine details of the frame texture. The Instant Stipple material also does really well on this one when heat formed to fit like a skin. Our standard rubber can still be used with this model, but I think there are better options on our site for this one. The original material does better where the thinner adhesive can grab on to smoother surfaces and not allow movement like some thicker adhesive can on smooth surfaces. I went with the Thin Dots material on my Bodyguard 2.0 pistol. It has performed very well, holding in place, and offering a great feel. I think t looks pretty good too.

@@tractiongrips excellent response!! Thank you so much!! Bless

We have it available in the Instant Stipple material. There should be a video posted showing the rubber grip being removed and replaced with the Instant Stipple material.

Thanks!

Thanks!

@@oakwoodmike EBay kicked us off a feted selling the same products there for 24 years. They claimed we had too many items removed which counted as strikes against our account, totally ignoring that each time an bb item was removed it was reinstated upon appeal. We are now focusing on getting things listed on PublicSquare, where we aren’t spending all of our time fighting an agenda. Of course, we will still have everything available through the Tractiongrips.com website.

Still have my contact info? I can get a demo grip out to you if you'd like to try one. Just email me directly.

@@tractiongrips will do

Thanks for the question. We can cut them for the P365, but the design for that model has pieces attached that wrap around the back. I'm not sure if the material would wrap around and form like a skin, or if there would be puckering. It's not one I've tried install this material on. There's a chance the back pieces may have be clipped offer a relief cut be made to allow it to flatten out. Our standard rubber material forms like a skin, but this one is much thicker ad stiffer. We have thinner version on the way, but we'll have to do a lot of product testing before we can add it to our lineup, and I'm guessing it won't feel as good as this one. If you order, use be sure to enter the model in the text box included for notes. Here's the link: instantstipple.com/product/traction-dots-rubber-grip-tape-overlay/

@@wilwoo821 we did just finishing testing of a new thin version of the Dots material and it will work perfectly with the P365 design. We will be adding the thin version to our site on Monday or Tuesday (July 15 or 16). We posted a short video to show the new material.

We have a thinner version of the material we'll be testing the next few weeks. It should allow us to include the piece that covers that back on this model ad many others. This one feels amazing though. The rubber compound feels like my super-grippy mountain bike tires.

@@tractiongrips oh awesome. I'll wait then

​@@tractiongrips I just ordered these today. I wish I saw this video about an hour or so sooner

@@ralphkensley5165 I just spotted the order and have a question about one of the items. I'm going to send an email reply through the site. Thanks.

Thanks, I hope it serves you well.

Yes, it will fit theDA as well.

We offer grips in many different materials, so I'm sure there's something that would be useful to you. Most people just opt for the standard back rubber grip tape, which has been our biggest seller for over 20 years. I prefer our cork grip tape for my own daily carry firearms. It's more comfortable, and offers the best grip when shooting with wet hands. We do offer some custom printed materials that don't add much to the feel, nice they are designed more to be a cosmetic addition, but nearly all of the options we offer will improve the feel.

This is the M3.0 Torsion holster. It really doesn't need a wing due to the bends molded in where the belt clips attach. It sits very tight against the body, especially with the position of the rear clip, which gets forced back by the tension of a belt. I use a wings on an older holster I ordered from Bravo Concealment. This one seems perfect without one.

That's weird. I have several and have never had an issue with any of them, even carrying daily and using them in training. What did you have fail?

@@tractiongrips The retention never held even after being replaced three times had the same issue on my Sigg and my shadow system

@@Almi6hty I'm guessing that's not the usual experience with them. All of mine click in and retain the firearms well, but still allow a simple draw without hanging up. I've sold a bunch of them to customers without hearing of any issues. My CR920 is in one on my side right now. I have them for various firearms, with some inside and outside the waist models, and some light bearing holsters in both styles as well. I always test the fit before carrying, by holstering the pistol, holding it upside down, and shaking as hard as I can to see if it falls out. I don't want a holster to allow a firearm to fall out, especially when there's no telling what kind of activity I'll be engaging in while carrying the firearm. Last thing I want is to lose a pistol on a mountain bike trail, or in a river while trout fishing.

Haven't tried cutting the cork material for this one, but I'm actually hoping to get a gray cork grip made for my CR920. I have cork grips on a few of my other pistols, and really like them.

@@tractiongrips I'll be waiting! 💯

My pleasure. I forgot to mention the retention adjustment is still set in the middle, where it was when I received it. It can be tightened up, or loosened, to suit individual preferences.

@@tractiongrips awesome

Did you cut it before or after sticking it on

@iansmith5911 Before. I used a caliper and straight edge. Dry fit it a few times to make sure I made the correct cuts. Started out conservative, and kept checking until I got it right, then I stuck them.

@@clutchcargo1239 awesome thank you I’ll give it a shot (super speedy reply aswell I appreciate that)

We do make grips for the Taurus G3. They are available on our website, and should also be listed on Ebay, along with through resellers on Amazon.

Exactly the same. The grips are symmetric. The ambidextrous features on this model require the overlay to be shaped the same on both sides.

The grips can be found at www.tractiongrips.com under the S&W section in the store. Hope this helps.

The more I shot one, the more I liked it. The trigger was easy o get used to, and putting rounds on target was easy. Covering up the bare aluminum made a significant improvement for me. The next one Iplay around with here will probably get one of our black cork grips installed.

Hi, the video shows the black grips. The lighting may make it look a little gray, but it's black. It ends up being a really good match. I didn't like the cold metal feel before the rubber grip went on.

They are available at www.tractiongrips.com, for around ten dollars plus shipping. Thanks.

No plans for a sandpaper version at this time. The front is a compound curve, so the grit material won't form to it without having to make relief cuts or having strips overlapping, which just doesn't hold up well, especially on small items where the radius is tight. The rubber material forms like a skin when heated with a hair dryer, so it's easy to work around the convex shape. I'm sure other grip makers will offer something in the sandpaper material, but we most likely will not. if we do, it would probably just involve the low shelves exposed when the small backstrap is used. We can make them with our cork materials and some other custom offerings, for folks that want a different feel or color.

The spare grip that comes the CSX has the extreme sandpaper texture. You must where a t-shirt to protect your soft belly when appendix carry.

We almost designed around that front piece, thinking it could be something made so folks could swap to different sizes or textures, and wouldn't want covered. When nothing popped up in searches, we just covered it up. I am glad to hear that it will be a functional thing. I just shipped my pistol off to Galloway precision to see what they can come up with as far as a trigger. Hoping they can make something to eliminate what I felt was a false reset upon backing off the trigger. That was the only thing I didn't like about the pistol, other than he magazines swelled when all loaded and inserted with some friction, and wouldn't drop free.

@@tractiongrips man that’s awesome. Yah my mag swelled at first but after a few hundred it stopped for whatever reason. I’ll have to stay up on the trigger upgrade. That will be interesting.

The big piece wraps around the front, covering the front and sides. The bigger rectangle piece fits on the back side. The small rectangle strip fits the bottom of the trigger guard. The longer strip that's pointed on the ends fits a factory magazine pinky extension. I hope this helps. Just be sure to use a hair dryer r heat gun (with caution) to soften the material so it can be formed to the frame texture and curves.

@@tractiongrips Yes it does, thanks! The pinky extension cover was the big mystery for me.

Thanks!

I have them on my Firefly. It's a great pistol, especially suppressed.

@@donaldmyers2435 I'm waiting on my paperwork to go through. Who knows how long that will take now.

On the Tractiongrips site, it's listed in the store, on the Canik page, under TP9 Series with No Logo Holes. Black and Gray are listed as options for the color choices.

@@donaldmyers2435 sweet i just ordered last night from you guys!!

They have 15 round magazines now too. I hope you can get your hands on some of them. Things are a bit tough to come by right now.

Around 20,000 positive reviews from happy Eskimo's on Ebay alone...

If you go to their website, they should have that info listed. I'm guessing if the city has a magazine capacity limit, they won't ship there. You could try calling a local gun store and asking if they can order them for you. There are several major gun distributors that carry them and most gun shops likely have accounts with at least one of those distributors. Good luck, they are nice to have.

There is no interchangeability between the Glock 44, Advantage Arms, or Tactical solutions magazines. I tried all of the possible combinations and none work. Kind of disappointing.

Yes we need aftermarket ones already!!!!!!

I think it should work cause the Glock 44 mags fit into 9mm Glocks and 9mm Glock mags fit into Glock 44s and that is the same 9mm mag but it just holds 22 bullets idk if that made sense

They don’t interchange. The g44 is it’s own animal. I did a side by side at a gun store. They will NOT interchange. The magazine catch slot is a different location. One might be able to modify the magazine or the catch for it to work depending on the combination. I don’t own a g44 and the AA magazines work fine in my conversion guns, so I haven’t pursued it.
