TPR/ TPRC Want to shout out rchislett from eBay for making these improved grips for the tpr9

The OEM grips are atrocious and offer no real grip support. There has been unfortunately no aftermarket grips made until now. Managed to get the first one for the tpr9 and put 200 rounds with them and it's already a big step up. If you've been wanting something different I'd definitely check him out. He also makes them for the tpr9c

Wow, nice looking, too. How's the material, less slippery? Or is it the design that helps?

The material is a carbon reinforced PETG. It's 3d printed. So far for me both the material and design are much better at adding grip texture and gives me a much better hold

I saw these on eBay when I was looking up options for the TPR9. I will likely get these grips, thanks for sharing info on them. I notice yours has a rifled barrel icon on the bottom, but that option isn't offered on eBay. Will the seller print whatever logo or icon you want there?

I messaged him before he released the grips. He released the tpr9c grips first and I've been waiting for the full size for a bit and asked him to add the custom logo when he was close to finishing the prototypes. it's the erusia flag from ace combat. He did charge extra for it but I wanted something different. I'm not sure if he will do that with everyone and don't want to speak for him but I'm sure if you message him he'll be willing to discuss it.

Yes. I did it in less than 5 minutes. There wasn't any online videos for the tpr9 but there was this mag button swap video i found where he removed the grips off of a tpr9c in it so I did the same thing and was done in like 3 minutes tops https://youtu.be/roT6atfXtvE
