In the high-stakes world of IPSC and competitive pistol shooting, your grip is the primary interface between you and your firearm. When every fraction of a second on the timer counts, a standard factory grip rarely provides the specialised performance needed to excel. For shooters looking to shave time off their splits and maintain rock-solid control during complex stages, LOK Grips offer a performance-driven solution that goes far beyond aesthetics.
Here is how LOK Grips can transform your competitive edge.
Superior Recoil Management & Weight Customization
IPSC is a game of speed and accuracy, and managing recoil is essential for fast follow-up shots. LOK Grips provides specialized options that allow you to tune the weight and ergonomics of your platform:
- Brass GridLOK Series: These weighted grips can add a significant amount of mass around 8 ounces to your handgun. This added heft helps tame recoil, making follow-up shots quicker and more accurate.
- Palm Swell Designs: Unlike flat factory panels, the GridLOK Palm Swells are thicker in the middle. This added bulk fills the hand more completely, which many competitors find incredibly comfortable during intense matches.
- Aluminium Options: For those who want the benefits of a precision-machined grip without the heavy weight of brass, lightweight aluminium options are available.
Aggressive Textures for Every Condition
Whether you are competing in dry heat or humid environments, a slick grip is a liability. LOK Grips offers CNC-machined textures designed to “bite” back:
- Bogies: The go-to for serious traction. These feature a dimpled surface that makes it feel as if your hand is glued to the pistol.
- Roughnecks: Featuring big, sharp checkering, these provide the ultimate traction for a competition gun where no slip is tolerated.
- Veloce: A clever hybrid texture that mixes a golf-ball-like pattern for the fingers with a smoother rear, providing a solid hold without digging into the palm during heavy recoil.
- Crosscut: Designed with diagonal grooves that help prevent the hand from slipping, even when palms are sweaty or wet.
The G10 Advantage: Built for Competition
Most LOK Grips are CNC-machined from G10, an incredibly tough composite made of fiberglass layers soaked in epoxy resin. For the active competitor, G10 is superior to standard materials because:
- It is extremely durable and resistant to chemicals, and it will not absorb moisture or warp.
- It provides a more “connected” feel to the gun compared to the generic, rounded feel of many factory polymer grips.
- The layered construction allows for a wide array of colors and patterns, letting you personalize your competition rig.
