Good, but wanted grippier - Hogue SIG Sauer P229 Contour Classic Inverse Checkered G10 Grip

These are made by Hogue which means they're made very well. I tried these out on a P229 Elite for a short while and loved how they fit my hand but for the size and weight of the pistol I wanted something which would stick to my palms a little better. They've since been replaced by the Piranha textured version of the same grip which gets the job done.

If you plan on concealed carry these inverse checkered grips will probably agree with you a lot more than the Piranha, though at that point I would think traditional checkering would have better traction than this inverted style. Still much better than the pre-E2 hard plastic factory grip panels though. On a 1-5 I'd place these around a 2-3 for texturing. Ordered mine in the later part of 2024 and got "Rev A" marked grips.
