slippery XD

is it just me or XD is little slippery on the grip?

anyways, what do people use for grip-tape on their XD? or any slip on grips?


Thanks!

Skateboard tape will work. I had the Hogue "rubberband" slip on on mine and it worked well. I dont recall what size it was and I had to trim the band for the grip safety but it did ok. If you go that route use a little Windex on the band-it will help it slide on a ton easier.

I've used this on my Glocks for years. Cheap, precut, and the grit isn't as aggressive as skateboard tape.

Pricey, but outstanding work and service....

I vote grip tape, bought at a skate board shop local to me... 5 bucks.

thanks for all the replies... i think i will go find some skateboard shops for now. trugrip looks really nice too though.

I have Trugrip on my G22, highly recommend it.

There's these XD specific ones, you can get the sandpaper type and the rubber ones, ThunderJohn is a great guy to deal with also..

I use skaters tape on the front strap only for XDs and 1911s. The local hardware store carries it in different widths. I've tried it on the back strap of the XDs but it doesn't work as well. Never been a fan of tape on the side panels.
