I’m always trying to get a really good grip on my CZ SP-01 Shadow for action shooting, and over the years I’ve added grip/skateboard tape to the front and rear straps of the frame which helped. Then had some LOK extra wide palm swell grip panels.
Better but when my hands get sweaty I still find myself using a lot of ProGrip (essentially liquid chalk that dries your skin).
Then I came across a few shooters making custom grip modules on their Sig X5’s using epoxy and silicon carbide grit.
Decided to give it a try tonight using a 15 minute set epoxy and 60/90 coarse silicon carbide grit. Painted it on and then dumped the grit on it and let it set for about an hour and brushed off the excess. Big difference but I think I should have gone coarser such as the 46/70 grit. I feel like between sweat, dirt, fouling etc it may fill in the grit since it’s not super coarse. We shall see.
Looking forward to shooting it at a match now.
