Grip Size Marking?

Post by Jon Math »

I purchased a used LP10. The factory grip fits me really well. The original owner has no idea what the grip size was/is. I was wondering if they mark grips or if not what is the best way to determine what size I have.

Isn't there a letter stamped on the bottom of the grip? Both my first EVO-10 Compact and now my EVO-10 Regular, medium right-hand grips had/have an "M" stamped in the base.

older ones sometimes didn't have any markings, my LP5 I remember had nothing on it.

to answer your question, there isn't a way, one M grip from the same model feels different from another grip, otherwise absolutely identically looking grips. To complicate things further, if you take production from different years, they are completely different.

Thank you both for the insights.

It is not stamped on the exterior.

Too bad hearing this. I’ve always used large grips, but I suspect this might be a med or even small, and I really love the fit. It’s a Morini I believe. I need to restock a Benelli that I recently purchased that came with very nice Bulls Eye legal but not ISSF legal grips. I'd like the same grip as this AP has.

I can help you with that grip you're looking for your Benelli. One of the services I offer is 3d-scanning of your current grip and putting a 3d-printed copy of it on whatever gun you'd like. With a composite wood filament for the new grip, it will feel just like your original. I can even make adjustments to the grip after scanning that leaves the main part of it intact but adds or subtracts features like upsweeps and thumb shelves that NRA rules allow but ISSF doesn't. Take a look at my site, PrecisionTargetPistolGrips.com, for more information.

Thanks,

Andrew
