The Makarov has workable grips to begin with, but they aren't the best out there and many American imports have horrid grips. The solution to MANY complaints about the Makarov is the Fab Defense grip made in Israel. They come in left or right-hand configurations and offer improved texture, a palmswell for better grip angle, a relocated magazine release, and a substantial beavertail to stop slide bite and give you a good, high grip. You can get them in Black, Flat Dark Earth, or OD green colors. If you want a set of these grips, search for them on eBay and order them direct from Israel. I have no affiliation with Fab Defense and did not get compensated in any way. These grips were purchased by the owner with his own money. Enjoy!
