fattus had no problem fitting one for me the other day.
the only time there would be a problem would be if there is a hole in the grip.

they fit ok with a normal grip but all the design/grip is all at an angle. probably doesnt help ive got 2 halfs and a whole grip underneath already. causing the grip to stretch and deform.

ill give the vacuum a go. thanks
