A62335 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Only company I've found that does is Hogue, but they don't have any pictures of them. Anyone know of any other companies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskySig Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Here is a thread from SIGForum where a guy purchased a pair of Hogue G10 grips for his P226 and did a review write up with pictures. I hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feersum dreadnaught Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 I put the Hogue checkered G-10s on my P220, replacing the rosewood that came with it. G-10s are slightly smaller diameter, and way more grippy. I'd recommend them, but the price made me hesitate. If you can afford them, go for it.

rack&roll Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 What color are those grips? Green? They would look great on my P-226 SS Elite! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dohboy Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Check with VZ Grips. They have pictures (see link) of their grips installed on a SIG and they do look very nice! http://www.vzgrips.com/index.php/gallery?f...ry&catid=13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might mention to them that pretty much no one makes aftermarket grips for the X5's...excluding the beautiful Nills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might mention to them that pretty much no one makes aftermarket grips for the X5's...excluding the beautiful Nills. That's a good point, but my interest level dropped a bit when I learned the price. $125 is pretty steep considering I can purchase new factory plastic grips for $20 and have them stippled for another $20.

-JQ- Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 That extra dough is for the CDI factor. I don't have an x5 right now...but will eventually buy another tactical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WS6 Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 I have used the rosewood grips that came stock on my P226 Elite ST. They didn't grip for beans or fit my hand. I then bought Hogue wrap-around finger groove grips. They didn't fit me well. I then tried Hogue flat-panel grips. They don't fit the gun well and interfere with the de-cocker. I then tried the OEM black plastic P226 grips and like many other SIG owners report, they don't tighten down and always shift a bit when you grip the pistol. In short. They suck for fit. I now have some Hogue black G10's headed my way. They will complete my all black QPQ'ed P226 Elite ST 357 SIG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spd522 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 (edited) My All Around got the hot soldering iron treatment although not in an overly aggressive manner. I did it where the factory checkering was on the sides and back and left the logo and smooth areas alone. It's a tool for me and subject to getting banged around and used. For my purpose, it works great and even with sweaty, wet, or oily hands, it's easy to keep a grip. Doesn't show if it gets a knick in it either. I don't spend a lot on grips for looks. I have some real nice wood on my SA 1911 and Micarta on my suppressed BHP. Other than that, everything else is either stock, grip tape, Brownells spray grit, stippled, or some combination. As for the CDI factor, I am married so I it's not an issue anymore...... Craig Edited January 5, 2010 by spd522 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
