Product Description
Weight and felt recoil are directly related, so by adding weight, our brass backstrap calms the gun down, creating a smoother-shooting, softer-kicking, more-neutrally-balanced handgun. Adding weight to the frame also reduces the tendency toward "weak wrist" malfunctions common to all polymer frame handguns.
This manifests itself most often when shooting weak-hand-only. The extra mass gives the frame a greater resistance to being pushed rearward in recoil -- helping ensure reliable cycling when the shooter can't supply full resistance due to weakness, poor form, or a too-low grip.
The brass backstrap concept descends directly from our famous "Seattle Slug" magazine guide, which adds 3.5 ounces of weight to the Gen. 2/3 Glock 17. That concept worked so well, it was eventually banned BY NAME in both USPSA and IDPA.
- absorbs recoil
- lowers the center of gravity (less top-heavy)
- High-traction checkered surface (better control)
- built-in mount for magwell (both the factory magwell, and TF version)
- increased "weak hand" reliability
- brilliant brass color! (Cerakote Black and Flat Dark Earth also available)
- Grip = roughly Canik "small"

Nice!
Fits perfectly. Looks great. Adds a nice little chunk of weight to help tame the recoil a little bit. This, a brass +4 mag base pad, a tungsten guide rod, and a Holosun 407C, and my Rival now weighs 36.9 ounces (empty mag).

Canik mete sfx brass back strap
Epic style, perfect fitment, awesome comfortable grip, added weight feels so good in the hand and helps keep recoil under control. 300 rounds before and after. I was way faster getting my sight picture after shots.

Great addition
Fits perfectly, and balances the rival well while adding some nice texturing! This was my first Taylorfreelance purchase but will not be my last.

Best of the best
I have been using TF products on my two competition SFXs and this item also does not disappoint! Bought it for my new Canik Rival dark side and color matching is unreal. Not to mention on the functionality if it. TF keeps improving their fit and finish and this means so much for the end users. I will triple recommend any FT items for anyone whos looking for an improvements for their competition pistols!
