What is the difference between the CCW Grip and the Boot Grip?
Features
- Absorb recoil: Recoil Rider revolver grips cover the backstrap with a rubbery material that mitigates shock. The hotter the ammo, the greater the reduction in recoil.
- Snag-free: Unlike traditional rubber grips, Recoil Rider revolver grips won't snag your clothing when pocket-carrying.
- Low-Profile: The slimmest and lightest boot grips ever made.
- Optimized trigger reach: Backstrap thickness provides a more natural and comfortable trigger finger placement.
- Lighter weight: Reduce the weight by over an ounce compared to traditional grips, offering the most lightweight boot grips ever made.
- Natural point-of-aim.
Compatibility
- Compatible with the aluminum frame Kimber K6XS and the steel frame Kimber K6S DAO.

Speedloader Compatible.
Weight Comparison
- Kimber K6xs (stock): 15.8 oz

Sizing Guide

- Standard Fit: Best for small and medium-sized hands. (At or below chart measurements).
- Large Fit: Best for larger hands (At or above chart measurements). Thicker backstrap improves recoil reduction.

Concealment Note: Both sizes are fully optimized for AIWB and pocket carry. Choosing Large only increases grip width and backstrap thickness - overall length remains the same.
Assembly
If you are having difficulty installing or removing the grip, I recommend heating the grips lightly and evenly with a hair dryer on low heat. This will make them more pliable and easier to install and remove. Do not use excessive or prolonged heat, as this could cause discoloration.

Fit and finish on these grips are top of the line. It took less than 5 minutes to remove the old grips and install the new. I can’t wait to my Kimber to the range.
The boot grips for the k6xs are a game changer. They make the gun stupidly pocketable, they are the lightest weight grip you'll find on the market and they really do an awesome job mitigating recoil from +p loads. The new material seems to be lighter and gives more traction under recoil while maintaining a non-tacky feeling. Some sort of voodoo magic going on over here.
