Do Kahr wood grips add much thickness to the grips.

[jam_ppp]

Thinking about getting the Kahr checkered wood grips for my MK9 and am wondering if they are thicker than the standard black (nylon I think) grips that came with the gun.

Thanks,
jam

Yes they are thicker. I do not have mine in front of me but I would guess they add about 3/8 to 1/2 of thickness to the overall grip.

I can say that if you had an issue with your thumb contacting the slide stop while shooting, then with wood grips it should not be an issue.

I prefer the Smooth grips over the Checkered.

Good Luck.

Just a little bit thicker but not too much. I ordered the checkered because I had smooth ones on another gun. I prefer the smooth ones better. The checkered ones scratch real easy - Just letting you know. I definetely like them better than the stock ones though!
