Subzero's "Fish Scale" M & P grip enhancement

**JohnN** · 12-18-07, 23:16

Just received a small backstrap in Subzero's Fish Scale pattern and I like the feel of it; not too rough but with enough texture to lock your hand in during recoil. Well done, thanks.

I guess I am going to have to get him to do a couple of each for my 45 and new 9.

You got a new M&P45?!?

I forgot about this thread... I got to fire a few rounds through an M&P with one of the subzero backstraps. Very nice! Increased grippiness, but not harsh on the hands.

I think I was the first kid on my block to have a M&P 45. If you were out shooting with the guys then you probably shot it. Tom had it when I was out on the ship.

I did just get a new 9 though.

Yep, I shot it a bit.

I felt guilty at first, since Tom said you had not even shot it yet. It shot so nice, however, that I got over the guilt.

Was that the one M4arc was licking?

Yeah, but that was before he dropped it on the concrete floor.

I guess we could change the tag line to a varitation of the old Timex tag, "It takes a licking, from a short bald guy, and keeps on ticking".

I have changed out the rear sight since my return. I really like the Burwell sight picture. I will have to see how well I like it. The new 9 has factory night sights and my just stay that way. That being said, I guess I am going to have to get a new 9 to shoot USPSA with.
