Why pay for checkering or cause someone else to risk carpal tunnel? That’s a good question, and something 10-8 Performance has an answer for. They are offering pre-cut sections of Grip Tape for 1911 front straps. The aim is to avoid the cost of checkering for a working gun. Additionally, the tape can be easily replaced when needed.

Two versions are offered: Ultragrip Fine grit (similar traction to 30 lpi checkering) or Medium grit (similar traction to 20lpi checkering) (lpi is lines per inch). Each piece is adhesive backed for ease of installation and comes packaged as a set of 5. According to 10-8. for best results, apply only to smooth front straps and be sure to thoroughly degrease front strap with acetone or alcohol prior to application.
