Kevin, yeah. I don't understand it. If folks want to make the argument that rubber is eaaier to grip with sweaty hands, that's an argument we could have but I don't for one moment buy the idea that narrow assed rubber grips soften recoil. if anything they make it worse because they focus it on a narrow strip in one's palm plus they ugly as Eleanor Roosevelt
