One of my four Model 3913 pistols still wears the Hogue rubber grips that came on it, so I see the possibility that thicker wood grips would help plus even enhance the appearance. Still, I am disinclined to go that route. The 3913 is not a big range pistol for me. Its raison d'être is as a slender carry gun. How it happens to feel in my hand at the range is not terribly relevant. It does what it does well. It is a work of art. However, I'll take a double stack along if I ever feel I need more than one of my trusty plastic pocket guns.
