    Ergonomics of match grips

    I have experimented with carving some grips for my Feinwerkbau model 80.
    I have tried some different shapes adding support and removing material where it
    seemed necessarily and are fairly happy with the result.
    I now want to carve a new set, the final set, but I find it hard to find good information
    on the theory behind good match grips and what features that makes a good grip.

    I want my next grip to be following whatever rules they have to follow to be allowed
    as match grips as well as to follow any good theory behind a good functional set of grips.

    I find it hard to find any good information on the subject other that that they (the gun)
    should fit in a 5cm wide box.
    Maybe it is my language skills that comes in short, I do not know?

    Does any one have some experience, pointers, good links or any other information they would
    want to share with me?

    Cheers.

    the Match Guns site is better.

    Can not really see anything regarding the grip, yes it shows what to measure on ones hand, but nothing on how to translate that into the grip?
    Although it did show me a few more things to be aware of so it is helpful. Cheers!

    Nice one, found this one to be great. It explained quite a few things about the ergonomics of the grip. Cheers!
