HandleitGrips Edge Series Vs Sandpaper for CCW

Seeing the difference between Handleit Grips Edge Series vs Sandpaper and discussing why you might want each.

[@surfwave11]

I’ve used both and have to disagree but to each their own. It’s all opinion. Sandpaper is old school and works but I don’t like that overtime the sand will wither down to the paper losing its grip and will end up looking sloppy. I’ve put about 10,000 rnds so far in my edge grips on a Glock 17 and has held up to the wear. My other Glock 17 has the sandpaper and it’s worn down to paper in some areas granted it’s had about 15-20,000 rnds put through it. I prefer edge, it’s grippy rubber but also has aggressive texture which provides a good purchase on the handle.

You’re 100% correct about it wearing down over time and, easy enough, I just switch it out with a new one. I’ve actually been carrying with the talon pro and Handleit edge also because it doesn’t snag my dry fit shirts.

I've used both sand great but only last about a year Rubber One Last years

I’m lucky to get 6 months from mine because I sweat so badly.

That sandpaper looks sloppy. Doesn’t seem like a nice fit. Edge looks good.

[@billdrill22]

It was sort of sloppy. Just very difficult to get them to fit the pdp. I put the edge on it and it fits much better.

Sandpaper handle it grips are the best! I can attest to that. I’ve been using them for a long time and you just won’t get the grip you’re looking for without them. I’ve tried both AND other grips btw

[@billdrill22]

Completely agree. Love the sandpaper/granulate models. Even carry with them.

Wear gloves

[@billdrill22]

If you can believe it I hate gloves. Just one more thing I have to keep up with. I’m a bit of a minimalist and try not to carry things I don’t need or use every day.
