I've had them on my 9mm shield that I carry everyday, and I love them. I've never had a problem with them, and they are still like The first day I put them on.

I've experienced issues with two sets of Talon Grips on my G43. When my hands or gun get sweaty from shooting outdoors in the sun or from carrying in the heat, the grips slide pretty easily. On the first set I thought it might be that I hadn't installed them correctly somehow, contacted Talon and they sent me out a new set (GREAT CS, by the way). Same issue with the second set. First time shooting on an 80 degree day, they started to slide around as soon as I started to sweat.
Pretty disappointing because they felt great but unfortunately just don't hold up well.
I think that I would contact them again. They may have changed adhesive suppliers recently.

I have A Gen 3 G20 10mm That was uncontrollable with Full Power reloads.
Store bought was fine, But the reloads really Barked.
So I Got a Wraparound Talon Grip for it.
Worked Great, But I had the same problem that some are reporting for the Glue Sliding around on the grip frame when I Installed them Per Instructions. And the Cut edge where the Grip tape came together was starting to curl as well.
So I removed them, And bought another set.
This time I Used Denatured Alcohol And Cleaned the Grip Frame of all Oils and Dirt Much Better that I Could with the Included Alcohol Wipe. (do not use Rubbing Alcohol, it has oil in it)
When I Installed them this time, I Did NOT Cut the tape to fit the frame but I overlapped it so the Tape Stuck to Itself.
Problems Solved. They do not move anymore. I Love them Now.
Thinking of buying a set of Talons for my S&W Shield .40.
it's fine with Winchester White box Ammo, but when I stepped up to Ranger LE Ammo I Can't hang on to it.
I've been using tractiongrips.com products. They work wonderful also.
I put them on my Bersa BP9CC.They are great !!!
Same as Talon Grips !! Called Traction Grips on E-Bay.
+1 for traction grips over Talon
