Haven't shot it with these grips yet (felt kick will be harder), but I'm very happy with it as an alternative to a holster...to the point I prefer it to the few holsters I've tried. The only cc holster I could imagine liking better would be an IWB cross draw (don't have one).
I wear it (Mod 60 2.125" barrel) right at 4 o'clock; the major con with that being drawing while seated in a vehicle, but it is accessible. It's uncomfortable at 11 or 1 o'clock, and doesn't hang right for cross draw.
The main things I like about it are:
1) it fits. No bs like trimming screws or remodeling holes. You could nit-pick the fit, but you would be nit-picking. Hassle-free installation is a good thing.
2) it works! Hang it on your belt and go on about your business.
3) it's small. No extra space used, as with conventional holsters (which tend to make the thing you're trying to conceal bigger).
4) easy to grab. The small size grips don't extend beyond the frame which leave maximum finger room, and the way the gun hangs presents the grip at good angle.
5) easy to draw. No retaining devices, no holster angle to work to. A cool thing with this system is the gun can pivoted/angled/rotated any direction and still be pulled out. There's no holster angle restricting/dictating a direction for the gun to be drawn. Grab the handle and pull it out, just like that.
6) nice feel. I also like the way the hook part of the grip becomes a comfy little pad for the big joint on the trigger finger, but I haven't fired it yet.
7) almost forgot...the price! The price is nice, under $30 will put them in your mailbox.
I went with off-white grips on the stainless 60, I like it.
