Just got my cushions from ktaddons today, put them on with a sleeve grip from Butler Creek and what a difference for my old arthritic hands. Only put about 30 rds thru it but it's easy shooting now. John
I'd say that the bulk added is nominal at worst and unnoticeable at best. The rubber is only about as thick as a credit card, not very thick. Doesn't hinder any draw ability or conceal ability of the p3at. All it does is improve the comfort and feel of the gun in your handsniper7369 said:It looks like those grips add a lot of bulk to the gun, do they?
You need to trim at least 1/16 inch from the bottom front area of the grip sleeve to give some clearance around the magwell. If the sleeve slips down any (or maybe even if it doesn't) you won't be able to insert a mag. Your current setup is VERY unsafe if you carry for CCW!TheWrights2004 said:
I haven't noticed any issues BUT will go ahead and take heed to your advice...what can I say...I can never pass up the opportunity for a little trim ;DJohn_E_Davies said:You need to trim at least 1/16 inch from the bottom front area of the grip sleeve to give some clearance around the magwell.

Yes, but can you find a pink bike tube? :alioop said:Oh, and let me pass this on, I use the poor man's grips. Yes, I use a bike tube to fashion my grips. Still not a problem with them.
What size bike tube works best? Or are they stretchy enough that it does not matter?. Are the thicker thorn-proof ones good to use?alioop said:I too agree that the bulk added is minimal. No problems with my holster or anything else. No sir, you won't feel the difference except that it feels better to hold when you shoot it. Not that is was all that bad to begin with.

I've been using pieces off a old tube from my mountain bike and they fit ok.What size bike tube works best? Or are they stretchy enough that it does not matter?.
I never thought about those. Might have to try one.Are the thicker thorn-proof ones good to use?
Either way I HIGHLY suggest against the ones that come pre-coated with SLIME! ;D ;D ;Dcarmike442 said:I've been using pieces off a old tube from my mountain bike and they fit ok.What size bike tube works best? Or are they stretchy enough that it does not matter?.
