The item adds nice grip and control without adding too much thickness. It reduces how much the gun slips in your hand when you shoot and seems to help reduce felt recoil. It is nice for concealed carry because it stops the rough grip from rubbing on your skin if you are not wearing a under shirt. I would give it 5 stars however it was very difficult to put on the gun, in fact when I opened it I thought they sent the wrong size. You are definitely going to have to heat it up and use Windex to get it on. It literally took two people to get it on and it did cause a very small tear in the bottom edge. I watched the video from Hogue and the guy has definitely done this a lot of times.

Works as designed. For anyone who may not have installed one before....ensure your weapon is clear, remove the mag, and heat this little sucker up with a hairdryer (or heat gun) you can slowly wiggle it into place. Works great and makes it a more comfortable grip. Reduces the "feel" of recoil. Picture is with my Sig that also has hogue grips.

These are a little tough to get on, but they really add a nice rubber grip to the slick polymer grip of the gun. This was for a M&P Shield pistol and I really like the way it adds some thickness to the narrow grip as well as the finger grooves. Easier to keep your grip when shooting. I also ordered the FDE color for a black pistol to add some color.

I wasn't sure wether to get this product or grip tape of some kind. I just knew I needed something better than factory, I really wish I ponied up and got the shield 2.0 because the grip is vastly better. Anyway, this grip is as advertised. Gives the gun more to grab a hold of and some texture . I also wasn't sure if I wanted the black color or fde. My gun has the fde frame. I really wanted it to match better. It's a few shades lighter than the s&w fde color on the frame. Now I wish I got the black one so if you were wondering.. I don't like the shade It is. I'm sure up against a black frame It looks fde and no-one is the wiser. It fits really snug. Watch some youtube videos they really help, hairdryer worked. I give it two thumbs up. I'd buy it again, but in black. So hogue needs to make it darker or just call it another color. I do like it better than grip tape because it gives more substance to fill your hand. That's my opinion!Read full review

I already had one of these on a .40 caliber Shield and I liked the feel and additional comfort of the grip when shooting. I don't have small hands, but rather average sized, so this added a little more grip surface to the already great, narrow grip. I used one of these on a full size pistol once, but it added too much to the grip size, so I discontinued use on large frames, going with Talon Grips instead. For my experience, the Hogue grip sleeve works well for sub compact and micro pistols if more grip size and/or comfort is desired. One installation tip that is not a big secret: To make installation go a little easier, use a hair dryer to soften and expand the rubber. It does take some effort to install, but a little heat sure helps.
