CS40 vs CS45 grip question

[rjm6120]

Can anyone tell me if the rubber grips for a CS45 will fit a CS40? I am trying to replace a somewhat "bubba'd" set of rubber grips on my CS40, but fleabay only has listings for a CS45.

I appreciate any guidance!

Yes, they are the same - Access Denied

Midway has them in stock for $21.49.

I didn’t spend much time on EBay looking but even the used ones I saw were more than that.

Yep, the same S&W PN# (263300000).

Thanks for the responses, fellows.

4T5GUY....didn't think about Midway, and yes that price is way cheaper than the cheapest one I saw on Ebay. Thank for the heads up!

Brian Parrish....not a new gun, have had this probably a couple years. Bubba tried to "texture" the back part of the grips, probably with a pocket knife, and I'm just getting around to thinking it's time to finally replace them lol.

Here are the obligatory pics lol....you can kind of see what was done on the back of the grips.

She maybe got knifed by her ex-boyfriend, but she is still real pretty!
Love it! Thanks for the pics.

I contoured the back of my CS9 grips, then rounded the grip's heal to reduced printing for better AIWB carry.

Haven't done that to my CS40 grips yet because it doesn't get carried often enough.

Hmm, that’s not the “usual” O ring spacer.

Did you come up with another idea? Sorry if I missed it discussed in previous posts that you might have mentioned it in.

Lol, the "usual".

I came up with that to "fill the gap" when using these flat Kahr base plates on my CS9 mags.

Before I had any access to relevant info/internet I started accumulating P series Kahr’s. I’m not “that” OCD but the space between some of the different caliber magazines when inserted/locked in bothered me.

Trying different O rings from my assortment I found the perfect ones. Lube them and they last a long time.

So even some factory Kahr base plates “need” a filler in Kahr pistols, not just in S&W’s. (If you are OCD or OCD curious.)
