I'm interested in them for my G29, but are the easy to get off if I don't like them? Are the removable after a good amount if time WITHOUT LEAVING RESIDUE/STAIN/ETC.
 
I for one like 'em! I have them on several guns now (rubberized version) and yes, they are easy to remove and leave no residue that can't easily be cleaned up with alcohol. For the money they're well worth a try.

I have them on several pistols I use the (rubber one's for carry).
The only one that gave me a problem was on the xds 45.I went back to the bike tube for that one.The clean righ up with a little alcohol.
 
I just bought a set for my KAHR CW45. I give Talon grips an A++++++ all the way. They shipped super quick, they went on just as the instructions said. I have the rubber grips. I love them. Awesome feel, super quality look. So get you a pair and enjoy
 
Have them on my G26. Fit is perfect, take your time installing(very easy). I bought 2 more besides the one I have. $10 bucks a piece, it's good deal.

Do talon grips cover up the "cheese grater" front and rear portions of the CW45's grip? I love my CW45 but that grip sucks after 100 rounds at the range.
 
LOL @ rskent. I know exactly what you mean... Unless your IWB holster protects your skin from the entire grip, the granulated Talon Grips will rub you raw... I am not sure about the rubber ones. On my pocket pistol, they make it a little more difficult to retrieve, but with correct pocket holster it could be better. i dont like giving negative review of such a good product, but that is my experience. I have Talon grips on my pistols and they help tremendously with controlling the gun and I have not taken them off... Yet...
 
>>After the first time I carried my gun in a IWB holster under a T shirt I took them off.<<

Should we assume you're talking about the "sandpaper" jobbies vs. rubberized?
 
The talons do look nice new but the only set I have seen and tried were ok on a buddies kahr . A little roughed up on the edges from many months of CC and range time. I still would stay with my inner tube grip covers. Looks means very little on my carry guns.

I have a pair for my XDs in the rubberized texture - I doubt my pocket or my skin could handle the sandpaper.

I can't find anything wrong with my pair. They complement the pistol aesthetically, give good purchase, haven't peeled in 200 rounds or everyday carry and they were relatively easy to install. The grips even came with an alcohol pad so I didn't have to hunt one down. So far, about 1.5 months in, I'd recommend them.
