Need Grips for my PT-145.

[DarkKnight01]

ive tried looking at hogues website but it seems they dont make any for the Taurus Mil Pro PT-145... i know i seen a pic here somewhere of someones PT-145 that had what looked to me like a hogue... but i cant seem to find the pic to shoot them a PM, or find them on the hogue website... any info?

Hmm, I have a PT-111, and since it is a one piece polymer frame, I don't think there are any grip panels that can be attached. I wonder if you are thinking of the slip-on grips, some with grooves, that are made by Uncle Mike's, Pachmayr and a couple of other companies.

The Uncle Mike's slip-on grips can be found here: http://www.butler-creek.com/adtempl...y=4954223&subcatky1=4548794&subcatky2=3036920

yes the slip on style is what im referring to =) thx for the link... im guessing these things arent a custom fit... more of a one size fits all? or a 3 sizes fits all in this case?

I have a few of these grips, albeit made by Pachmayr. My small size grips neatly fit my single-stack AMT DAO Backup in 9 mm. I don't think they could be stretched to fit a double stack.

In looking at the Uncle Mike's selection, I think that the medium size would work with a PT-145 or PT-111. And in eyeballing the large size, I think they would ride up right over the mag release on the Taurus.

I personally like the slip on grips without finger grooves, but I don't think I have found one yet except in size small.

Just take some skateboard tape and put some on the back and front strap. Or you can order pre-cut ones for the sides from decalgrip.

thx for the info =) ill look into it, would need to first look at some first hand... but not sure if id like it or not... i think id rather have something less permanent that i can remove if i decide i dont like it.

I have done it on many of my carry firearms that have hard grips(MilPro PT145, P32, Crimson Trace grips on my J frame etc.). You can cut it to whatever shape you want and it is not permanent but it doesn't come off unless you want it to. Hasn't destroyed any finishes either.

It's cheap and worth a look.

I have both a PT145 and PT111. Find the Hogue Handall slip on grip at your gunshop. For the PT111, I used the Handall Jr. which is a bit smaller.

Here's a pic of my PT145.

Thats the pic I seen and thats the slip-on im looking for =) so hogue does make one that fits the 145 according to their website they dont. But im sure it just hasnt been properly updated.

Thx silhanek. Ill be picking one up soon

silhanek, you should make our shoot out in Buckeye this weekend so I can give that Mil Pro a try.
