Cool Hand G10 Grips for CZ 75/85 Compact, P-01, PCR, 75 D

The bad first: When fitting the grips into the frame, they bind slightly and don't slide all the way forward. This causes the screw hole to be misaligned with the one in the frame. I could have elongated the hole in the grip, allowing the screw to line up, but I spent the time to find where the grip was binding. For my particular C100 it was with the top and bottom portion of the grip on the back that protrudes through into the frame cutout. Once those areas were shaved down a little, the grip would seat forward fully and the grip screws went in easily. What want easy was filing the grip material down - it is well constructed from a tough material but that works against you when trying to modify it. I kept the ratng as 5 out of 5 stars because I suspect the precision construction and tolerances of these grips are better than the manufacturing tolerances of my C100. Although mineeven is excellent, this area of the frame may not be as rigidly "in-spec" to the CZ75 is it based off of. The good: everything else! The grip texture is pretty aggressive and looks like it should cost 2 to 3 times what I paid. They mold perfectly to the frame and feel fantastic in the hand. The star drive grip screws look great and come with the tool to install them. Based on the effort required to shave maybe .1 or. 2 mm from those back areas, they should outlast the frame they are fastened to. An overall great product. They were more than worth the effort to fit them to my frame and are a great value.

Very cool grips! Fit and finish are excellent, easily as good as VZ for $30 more and better than Hogue & Pachmayr, IMO. The color and pattern are exactly as pictured and I really like it; makes the gun pop (NPI) and looks less police service sidearm. I'm not sure every pair has this but mine came with a tiny phenolic insert to form the back of each grip panel. The inserts are red and show up at the butt of the pistol as a thin red stripe. It's kind of a custom touch and looks nice against the black and white. Again, to my eyes, YMMV.(I attached pics) These are comfortable for me with very good grip but without irritating my hand or my side when I carry. They also don't grab and hang up on my clothing like the CZ rubber grips do. These probably don't soak up recoil as well b/c the CZ ones are rubber and have a palm swell but my pistol is 9mm so who cares. If you have smaller hands these are much thinner than stock and shorten the reach considerably. The one oddity is the grip screws were side specific, sort of a port and starboard fit. This may be what another poster experienced when he said one of his screws wouldn't work.

They fit and feel so nice. It really slims my PCR down. They are some lookers as well. The only issue which if you are not willing to fit and finish yourself is screw hole misalignment. This one on the left was too far off to even force fit. I had to egg out the through hole and recess areas to get it to fit. Not hard just kinda sucks.

The first set of grips I received had a manufacturing flaw where one grip panel wouldn't fit due to a missed machining step. I went to Coolhand's website and filled out their contact form with a description of the issue and asking them how they wanted to go about getting me an exchange. A few hours later I got a phone call from an actual live person who was very friendly and got me squared away with replacements that were shipped out to me the next day just as they said they would. They emailed me the tracking number and 2 days later I had my new grips and screws. They fit my Canik/TriStar T100 perfectly and are just aggressive enough on the texture for a nice feel without being too much. I've had VZ grips on my 1911 since shortly after VZ got in business and these are every bit the equal to them. They look good, feel great, and the flat, thin panels let me get a better, more comfortable grip than the original palm swells. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Coolhand to anyone looking for replacement grips.

These grips look amazing on my CZ 75 B Compact. I don't have the issues with fit like some other people have had. The grips aren't shaped perfectly. There is a tiny bit of over hang at the bottom of the mag well, but not enough to hinder mag insertion. The grip is mild to moderately aggressive. A bit more than the factory grips, however they are still comfortable to wear concealed. The shape of the grip texture gives you traction both horizontally and vertically. I'm very happy with them.

Looks good but doesn't fit well to pistol.

The screw holes are night aligned with the receiver's holes. Will have to make modifications. The grips are nice. Just wish they fit nice.. Update. If you take a small dremel with a square off grinder. You can grind the internal place holding protrusion on the bottom and it fits perfectly with the holes aligning and edges lining up perfect. I'm pretty handy so this took 5 minutes. Most gun owners I think would be able to perform this. It's a great grip aside from having to grind it slightly.

The first thing I noticed was the white label on the back of the package saying "Made in China". I don't know why, but I assumed these were made in the USA. When I ordered these I was concerned with two things: color consistency and the fit. These grips were good in both categories. The color and shading is almost exactly like the product photos. The black/grey combination looks beautiful on the PCR. The workmanship is amazing. No burs or inconsistencies and the pattern of the texture falls exactly on the same spot on each of these. The fit is good as well. No high or hollow spots and no loose sounds. The grips are a tad long compared to the stock grips by less than a 1/16". But when looking at the product photos it reveals the same overhang. Even so, the magazines engaged well and my snap caps rounded properly, but a trip to the range will be the deciding factor. If the slight overhang is an issue, you would NOT want to sand/file material off evenly across the bottom because on near the lanyard, they're perfectly flush on the bottom but as you move towards the front strap, the overhand becomes apparent. So filing/sanding them could be tricky. The texture of the grips are great. They don't seem too aggressive or too smooth, but after 150-200 rounds it may be a different story. Also, the screws with rubber washers fit well below the surface. So far, I'm pleasantly surprised. UPDATE: After several trips to the gun range, these grips felt amazing. Not too rough on the hands and very secure in the hand. Also, I didn't have one feed failure due to the slight overhand of the grips on the bottom. Maybe it's me, but it seems the grey color of the grips got lighter. I applied oil to darken them but they didn't get darker. Maybe it's me or the way the grips reflect light but they look lighter than before.
