Taurus Grip Tip...

Post by speedsix »

...if you order for the 445, 415, 425, 450,606,607 the "Ribber Grips" which are a bit larger than the factory ones, and made of many small ribs to soak up recoil, also order the proper length screw as a seperate item...it doesn't come with the grips and the factory grip screw isn't long enough to even go through the bottom of the new grip...ask me how I know...5-7 days more to wait :oops:

I have used them for different length screws when changing grips. Sometimes with different heads, but liked them better!

Do you know of a source for smooth grips for a 445? I don't care for those ribber grips. :bigear:
