This is my third X-Grip for my "Officer's Model" 1911. I allows me to use a full size magazine, while smoothly extending the grip area to that of a full size 1911 pistol. The "pinky hook" molded into the X-Grip gives enhanced control of the little beast, helping to moderate muzzle flip. I carry with a full length +X-Grip magaxine installed and two reloads, wearing X-Grips.

Although slightly on the expensive side, this product is good quality and sturdy. It is meant to be a permanent fit so would be difficult to remove, once installed on your magazine. On the plus side, that makes it sturdy, but on the -ive side it is not intended to be transferred from one magazine to the next. On the Plus side, it does fill the "Pinky-Finger" extension in the front of the grip BUT, I was hoping it would fill in the void from magazine bottom plate to the end of the 1911 grip (the heel of the palm). It does not. So there is a gap from the bottom of the grip to the bottom of the magazine.

You have to know which magazines they will fit ahead of time and the description on the package wasn't accurate. supposed to fit Colt officer mags, but I went through about 6 styles before finding a mag tha would allow the mag to seat in the gun after installed. The only one tat worked was the Wilson Combat, style 902, full size 8rd mag. PS. Once installed, they are impossible to remove without destroying them.

I have a compact 1911 45 acp and I have used these extenders on 4 full size mags. The fit and finish is great on this product. I love the way it looks and the added length makes the grip fit your hand much better.

The xgrip looks great, adds some to the last finger groove but did not fit correctly. I installed per directions, then found out the mag would not lock in place, would not insert far enough and the xgrip was stopping it. Still trying to figure out how to make it work. Being this thing is designed to go on and stay on! Not sure how thinking of filing without damage to the clip.
