Product Description
We have a bunch of Mete/Rival/TTI Death Grip backstraps that came out roughly .015" inch "undersize" when measured from the flat side to the top of the rounded hump of the of the grip.
These backstraps are mechanically perfect -- and most people won't notice the difference -- but they don't meet our standard of quality control. If look closely you can see that these are a little narrow at the top. Also, because they're shorter, you can see where the two sides of the checkering pattern meet (normally you can't see that).
If you're focused on function, this is your backstrap!
Similarly, if you're intending to wrap your gun in skate tape or some other enhancement, there's no reason to pay full price for one that's perfect. Get one of these and save yourself some money.
Get a "Death Grip" on that gun!
Nils Jonasson (pro shooter for Canik) asked us to increase the amount of checkering on his TF backstrap. He likes to maintain a "death grip" on his pistol, and checkering helps lock the gun in his hand.
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!
TF's "Death Grip" has checkering spanning the entire gripping surface. Once we'd covered everything with checkering, we backed up, removed the factory-pattern "scallops" on the sides and extended the available gripping surface even more!
Compared to any competing model with scalloped sides, the Death Grip has more checkering in contact with your hand, more total weight, and thus more of the control-enhancing features you want!
Weight and felt recoil are directly related. By adding weight the gun calms down, creating a smoother-shooting, slower-kicking, more-neutrally-balanced handgun. Brass is best in most situations, but if you're carrying the gun around all day, you might want aluminum instead.
- Machined from bar stock H02 Brass or 6061 aluminum
- Ridiculous volumes of high-traction checkering CUT into each piece (not cast) for maximum "grip" and control
- Built-in mount points for factory, TF magwells
- Lowers the center of gravity (better balance, calmer handling, less top-heavy)
