LimbSaver

I've just purchased 2 limbsavers, one for the Walther PPS and another for the Walther PPQ. On the Walther forum a number of PPS owners recommended the limbsaver as it helps reduce felt recoil and makes the slim grip a little more comfortable.

Limbsaver also sell products for ARs and shotguns. The 'Pro Handgun Grip' pistol products are generic sizes rather than for specific make/models. There are 3 sizes:

• Full frame semi-auto
  
• Full frame compact
  
• Full frame sub-compact
  

While I've not found any significant issues with felt recoil from the PPS, having shot 150 rounds in 30 minutes, I decided to give them a try for the price of $10-$12. I am also trying them to see if they help improve grip when shooting in warmer conditions and hands become sweaty.

Fitting the LimbSaver takes all of 5 seconds, they stretch over the existing grip. If you have replaceable backstraps you may or may not wish to try moving to the size smaller backstrap. The LimbSaver feels like soft rubber with a slight tackiness/stickyness.

I've not had a chance to try them at the range yet, I'll be posting a report after this weekend, however photos are below.

note: I have also fitted grip-tape beneath the limb saver which provides a much better grip.
