    I have all 3 versions. The rubber is ok. Just a notch above stock. The sandpaper - Very grippy but does rub skin raw when belt carrying. The hybrid is a nice compromise - lots of grip but not as abrasive. The speckle color takes a bit to get used to but I value function over looks.

    i use talons on all my firearms, except the sigs.

    always clean your grip first with rubbing alcohol and heat it (the grip and the adhesive side of the wrap) with a hair dryer. if your placement is off, heat the wrap and thumb nudge can push it into place.

    I put the rubber ones on my P10F. The factory grip texture was a little too aggressive for me but the Talons made it very nice.

    I agree with the quality product statement.
    I liked the P10C texture but the gun does feel much better with Talon rubbers on it

    Have them on all of my guns. Granulate on the duty ones, and since the pro series came out that’s my go to on all the others. The rubber ones don’t provide much traction IMO but the pro series is the perfect combination of the two.

    IMO, their granulate grips are one of the best upgrades you can get for the money. They’ll rub you raw but an undershirt/wife beater solves that problem.

    Im not as high on the rubber and pro textures but they’re definitely still an upgrade for most stock polymer grips. I just found myself wishing I had gone with the granulate instead.

    Yeah I tried the rubber on my first gen Shield and it looked and fit great but did not provide the "sticky" grip I was hoping for and went to the granulate . Also have the granulate on a Glock 43X and 48. I will have to look into the pro series the next time I am considering a Talon grip.
