2011 STI Grip Module | Dragon Scales Black Hand Textured
Say goodbye to oversized, slippery 2011 grips that fight your hand. The Extreme Shooters Dragon Scales Black Grip — the original custom texture featured on STI DVC models — transforms your Staccato, STI, or other 2011 into a natural extension of your hand. With thousands of shooters trusting this upgrade, it's the industry's go-to for ergonomic control, tighter groups, and a premium feel.
The Original Dragon Scales — Fix Your 2011's Bulky Feel
Factory Staccato and STI 2011 grips are notoriously hard to hold — too big, not ergonomic, and prone to slip. We solve that with a full reduction, double undercuts, and our signature hand-stippled scale pattern. The result is a custom 2011 grip that boosts accuracy, improves control, makes reloads easier, and feels tailor-made for competition, carry, or casual shooting.

DvC STI grip
Great product great people! Amy was pure gold, was able to switch out my order for the right size. I believe it's the people that makes the business. Will shop here again.

This grip is excellent. Ordered it to use on a 2011 build for a Cheely Custom frame. Easy install and feels great in the hand. Customer service from Extreme Shooters is excellent as well. I mistakenly ordered the incorrect screw package for the grips. The response was quick and friendly. They even upgraded me to the correct screws with no extra charge! I would recommend them for any 2011 pistol

I bought the Dragon Scale grip module for my DVC P and I could not be happier. The only natural course of action was to try out the Tree Bark grip next for the Staccato P Duo I have coming. I will follow up again once I have this installed and get out to the range again. Thank you Extreme Shooters Grips!

Customer review
This grip mod turns a block of plastic into probably the best handgun you've ever owned. The STi line is arguably a very good gun but the new grip style on the Staccatos leave much to be desired. I bought it anyway due to the reliability and quality, but it was not comfortable. I read about Extreme Shooters and decide to give it a shot. This was money WELL spent. Price is very reasonable and the turn around time was quick! Two individuals that had shot my Staccato a week before said they didn't like the gun, both of them were astounded at the difference after Jason trimmed it down and one of them is now buying a Staccato. This is a first rate outfit!

I have a 2020 staccato XC with the improved Gen 2 grip. Unfortunately not an improvement at all compared to my DVC three with dragon scale grip. Rubbery, too wide for my hands, etc. I ordered the dragon scale grip which arrived at my house quite quickly. My gunsmith installed it without any problems. This grip makes the top end pistol even more of a dream gun. The way it should be. Thanks Jason and Extreme Shooters!

Just wanted to say thank you for the World Class Customer Service. I purchased a new grip for my STI Hawk 5.0 last Monday and recieved it on Friday. Had the new grip installed by that afternoon and used it in a 3 gun match on Sunday. The grip was easy to install, looks and feels amazing.

Installed on my STI Apeiro, and dang, this grip is indeed perfect. The texture is exactly what I was hoping for and the cut is great. One of the better upgrades I've made to the gun. This grip won't disappoint you.
