Make Sig P220 Grips Wider

[ccwcanada]

What would be the easiest way to make the grips on my 220 wider? A better solution than using hockey tape...

I have big hands and long fingers, so my fingers wrap right around the grip with the my shooting hand, and I just can't get a consistent grip with my support hand because there's nowhere to put it, other than on top of my other fingers...but that's not stable. In other words, I can't get my support-hand palm anywhere near the grip, because my shooting-hand finger tips wrap almost all the way around to touch my palm.

In all the "how to grip a gun videos" you see on youtube...they're always on about getting your support palm onto the open space on the grip. I can't do that, and my support hand just rolls around on top of my fingers.

They're wood grips on right now...black wood. I thought maybe I could just put wood spacers in between the existing grips and use slightly longer screws...but it ain't that easy.

My 226 has slightly wider grips (they could be a lot more), and the grip and shooting control is far better.

Any ideas?

See if you can buy a Hogue grip for the P220 first; it's fairly cheap and makes it a bit wider.

Second thing I can think of would be to get some custom grips made for you, no idea how difficult that will be though.

Third option is to make the grips yourself, if you have the patience and time. Not gonna save any money this way either.

The wood hogues do make the grip wide vs stock.
Alternative could be buying a 226.

*missed you are using wood grips already (factory?)
You will have to wrap your hand around the other.

Yah someone offered me their Hogue wood grips because they are too wide for him...so I told him I would take them after my vacation and wedding (money's tight for a few more weeks!).

I do have a 226 and I do like their slightly wider grips...I could use them even wider though!
