Welcome back DefGrip as a premium donor sponsor! I absolutely love this product, and I have one on just about every gun I own. If it’s not on one, it’s just not on there YET! This grip is a game changer for those of us “sweaty handers” who can’t stand that sandpaper feeling or the hassle of applying and reapplying “stuff” all match long.

Their generous donations have made their way into quite a few lucky competitors’ bags.

Patented moisture-wicking gun grips for G***k, Sig Sauer, S&W, & 20+ brands. Dri-Touch Polymer. Easy Instal, better grip, improved accuracy. $24.99.
