Full description and what we offer
Extreme Shooters specializes in custom 2011 grip reductions, aggressive hand-stippling, and durable Duracoat finishes. Operating from Lake Havasu City, Arizona, they've built a reputation over 10+ years working directly with USPSA shooters, concealed carriers, tactical professionals, and law enforcement.
Every grip is custom-made to order based on your frame and hand size:
- •Grip Reductions: Extra Small (maximum reduction) to Large Hands (minimal reduction)
- •Textures: Dragon Scales (balanced, industry standard), VIP, Costa Tree Bark (aggressive, discontinued), custom patterns
- •Paint Options: Solid colors or custom designs using professional Duracoat finishes
- •Undercuts: Single undercut trigger guard on tactical models
- •Materials: High-quality polymer construction
Standard lead time: 3–5 weeks for hand-stippled grips. Custom paint adds a few extra days for curing.
Don't have a new gun? Extreme Shooters accepts send-in grip customization. Ship your existing Staccato, STI, or 2011 polymer grip with mainspring housing for reduction, stippling, and paint—no gunsmithing required, just mail it in.

Extreme Shooters provided the original Dragon Scales and Costa Tree Bark textures for STI and Staccato production pistols and continues to offer them directly to customers today.
Dragon Scales is the same pattern used on classic STI DVC grips—providing traction without excessive bite. It's the industry's preferred choice for carry and competition. Tree Bark is more aggressive but currently discontinued.
Their grips appeared in John Wick 3 (Combat Master), Magnum PI, and Sons of Guns.
