15 years into collecting and I finally bought my first polymer ever, a gen 5. Thanks so much for these videos and the discount code. I just finished installing my Talon PRO and I absolutely love it.
That is awesome!
How does the pro feel? Is it like a sticky rubber? Or smooth but grippy like a silicone handle on a spatula or something?
@@tonytiger2450 It's hard to describe, not "sticky" but definitely grippy. Not smooth, but kind of soft and grippy. Really great for getting a good hold if the gun has blood/sweat/water all over it. Only down side is after a year or so it starts to wear off in high-contact spots
@@SlickVega ty for the feed back :)
I received the talon grip for my 9mm shield today also got the grips for my 3 mags installed them immediately didn't need to read instructions I've seen enough of your grip installs so I knew how to do it came out nice I love it can't wait to shoot the gun with my new grips thanks for the great instructions
I have carried my Glock 17 with granulated talon grips and a few small strategically placed pieces of my 12 year old son's skateboard grip tape on duty for years. I've tried the rubber and pro on other Glocks I own and I think the granulated grips are by far the best. You just need to rub some of the granulate off so they arent as abrasive.
Another nice Talon Grip install video but now I want your (Justin) Opinion on how it is feeling out on the range with the talon. Now we need a part 3, how ever you can work that out I will be waiting patiently.
Thanks...
In theory we should find watching you fit aTalon grip to another pistol boring..but I find it strangely (disturbingly?) soothing! Bedtime stories for guys with gun issues!! Nice work!
Likewise, I always think it's going to be boring to do the install and yet it feels therapeutic.
Just a tip, I use the backing to keep the left side edge from sticking until I get the front strap wrapped around, that way I don't have to peel it up
Yep, I've done it both ways. That is a good method too.
Yes it’s always helpful to make these. First time doing this and wanted to watch videos before
Glad it was helpful!
Yes easy af to install even for my first time
thank you! just got the rubber for my 43x and love it. best tutorial i found.
THanks I needed this. Adding to my Glocks and some other guns I own.
Great grips... Highly recommended!
I was curious how it would work with the aggressive texture.
Seems to work fine.
I like this video. Thank you Justin!
They are. Nice! 😎🤘🍻
Entertaining AND helpful. Thanks, Justin.
Looks really good
Can you do a video sometime on removal of a talon grip? I've always been curious of how much residue would be left behind and how hard it would be to remove the residue. It would make me feel better about using more talon grips on handguns I have. I currently only have them on my Walther PPQ.
Warmachine_13 zero residue left behind.
You can use goo-gone on the leftover adhesive and it will not hurt the polymer.
@@Agondonter777 ok thanks
Regarding the bubble. You took care of it without issues, so I guess if it ain’t broke don’t fix it, but I think you could make poke little hole and reheat rather than peel up after heating and compromise the integrity of that first adhere. Although idk how good the adhesive is on these bad boys so maybe idk what the hell I’m talking about and NOT puncturing holes in your new talon grip is the way to go lol.
Got a grip for my Shield and ordered 2 hats! Thanks!
Awesome. I hope you used the discount code.
Justin Opinion Yep I sure did thanks!
I like talon and have used their products. But I must say. Once I found traction grip. It’s basically the same product with a superior adhesive about 40% cheaper.
Thanks I just ordered mine nice discount 💪🏽
I hope all is well with you during the Hurricane!
Dats sum nice kit! Do they make grip tape for a blunderbuss?
Thanks ! Great How to video.
Looking good brother
Great video!!! Thank you!!!
THX
Thanks I just used your code got 2$ off n ordered the same ones
Love them grips I get my gun dealer laffing at me I use them on every gun even on my rem tac 14 shockwave grip and on the magpul forend
Looks good. I've never had to use the MBSs so it would be a "one & done" mod for me.
I dont mean to be so offtopic but does anybody know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account?
I stupidly lost the password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me.
@Aron Nathan Instablaster ;)
@Jack Bodhi Thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and im trying it out now.
Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Jack Bodhi It worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my account !
@Aron Nathan You are welcome :D
But... They keep saying its perfect, why are people changing things on it!? 🤣
Maximus Joseppi because they can
Good video as always.
I lay vinal on cars for a living, and shoot guns for fun. Having experience in both, that was painful to watch. Lol.
Is that the 379-rubber grip or the 379- granulate grip? Which would you recommend
Can I put this on a Glock 17 gen 5 with a back strap already on the gun?
good job..
hi Justine, I just went and purchased a Glock 17 gen 5 with factory night sights for $649 and? the lower front part of the frame matches the rounded edges of the slide!!! YES, I couldn't believe it I ask the dealer was this customized? he said no he just got 3 of them in this week and that Glock has corrected that issue with the frame not matching the slide on the 17s and 19s because of the complaints they were getting I suppose? -it was the very reason I bought it and really wasn't planning on a gen 5 til I saw this issue corrected and I believe this will be a big selling point for the gen 5s now but I am still seeing a lot of the gens 5s in stores where the frame does not match the slide
Walter a little late but all new gen 5s come with the slide matching the frame and no half moon cut out on the grip
Dude!! The patch!!! Where can I get it???
What texture did you buy or suggest?
Are index points available?
Get some nights sights!
Just ran across your video…is the rubber grip tacky? If so does that go away?
Not really a "tacky" feel - just the natural friction of a rubber surface. The good thing is that it stays that way. I've had some on for years that still feel the same.
@@JustinOpinionChannelawesome, I’m leaning toward getting one of these for my 48, the grip is perfect, i like the size, I just need a little more friction in certain situations. So this is looking real awesome to me. Thanks
Justin, why does your G17, gen5 slide not have any forward serrations?
It's an older gen 5 model
Just put the rubber grip on a G43. From unpacking to the female hair dryer, 5 min. Heated it up to the point of being very hot to the touch. Had air bubble just under trigger area. Instead of peeling it back. I used a sharp scissor point, small safety pin will do too. Poke it and push out the air. Vala, no more bubble.
For those of you that don't have a female in your life. Use a fish hook. I kid, I kid.
Bela arma!!!
You said...bubble butt... :)
Hey Justin. Did you ever put a talon grip on your cz p10c? If so how do you like it over the heavy factory stippling?
I did and I love it!
Justin Opinion thanks. Just ordered 2 grips and used your code
Cool. I think you'll really like the difference.
Right on..not another one...lol
Does the grip include finger grooves? Lol!😁
Wonder how many people will buy a Gen5 and then get a Hogue sleeve with finger grooves for it. :)
Love the tiny ass alcohol wipe lmao!!!
Ooh. I see the name 😅
That “patriot patch co.” Gave me douche chills
Anyone know how the blue one looks..
what is a good handgun full size for under $1000 15+
Cz SP01 or P10F , Glock 17 or19, Sig p320, HK VP9, S&W M&P, man the market is your oyster.
You don't pay for the Talon grip. Does that mean that they are a sponsor and the reason why you put these on so many guns ?
It's kind of a chicken and egg question. I've used Talon grips for years, and I love them. The folks at Talon grew to appreciate that I was giving their products some attention, as more people started to watch. At some point, I requested a discount code so that my viewers could save a few bucks - which they gladly provided. I still kept purchasing most of the grips I use until they scolded me and said "quit buying them, we'll send them to you". Every little bit helps with expenses, so I am okay with that. I try to be diligent in telling viewers they were provided by Talon just in case you think my opinion is for sale. So, sort of a pseudo-sponsor, I guess. Hope that answers that part. The reason I put them on so many guns is because I prefer a polymer pistol with a Talon over one without, almost all the time. There are some exceptions - I think the M&P 2.0 is fine without one, as is the Honor Guard. I've had the pleasure of meeting some of the folks at Talon, and they are great people running an honest company that was founded on (at the time) a unique idea to improve polymer pistol grips inexpensively. I like that a lot, and so I am pre-disposed to show them lots of love.
Thank you for your honest answer. I'm more into wheel guns, but I do understand about polymer pistol grip. They really aren't that good. Again, thank you.
WHAZZZZZZZZUP???
Talon web page is pretty basic. So what is the grip texture on this gun? They have three you can select, and moss is a color, so there is rubber and sandpaper. Which is this?
These are the black rubberized - my personal favorite. I sometimes use the granulate (sandpaper) for a dedicated range or match gun. The Moss as you observed, is just a color variation of the rubberized.
Thanks! They sell them through Amazon with Prime shipping. Probably the best $18 I will spend to spruce up my Gen 2 Glock 22. Thanks for the great videos!
i will never waste another penny on fake ass talon grips. especially the rubber ones. they suck
I'm sorry that you've had bad luck with them. What went wrong? I've installed three so far, all on M&P Shields, and have never had them come off or cause an issue.
God that is sexy lookin!!!
O sea mano prima la seguridad no no enfrentes montas el arma primero revisa que no tenga malos sabes qué tipo qué clase de personas eso con una pistola de fuego
Just my opinion, but if you need to improve the grip on a brand new model.....not good!!!
Greg Laborde It's not a matter needing, it's a choice. Plain and simple.
It's all preference. To some the stock Glock grip is excellent. Othersike rubber feel.
