I had a set of VZ grips for one of my J frames. The fit was good, not great. I had the tactical diamonds in Black Cherry. They were just a bit too rough, grippy, for my taste. In the holster wear a thick T shirt or your skin will be raw. At the range, felt like I was trying to hold briars. I did not try another set. Maybe the smooth grip would have been better. Just my experience. I have a 1911 with the tactical grips on it and I like it fine.
