I always thought they were dumb. I guess I never thought about the holster issue.

 

The holster issue, $40+ cost for the part, time to install? I'll pass.

 

There are many ways to spend $$$ for add-ons. Marketing works.

 

The only "gas pedals" I still have are the Sport Takedown Levers from Armory Craft on a P226 and on a P320. They are not huge like the GoGuns, Align, or Armory Craft Type 2 take down levers, but does give a little extra space for the off-thumb. Additionally, they fit in standard holsters.

 

Icrues Percision ACE XMACRO GRIP MODULE, eazy to find holsters...

 

Main reason I didn't get one. I love my 1791 holster but it wouldn't allow the pedal so I did not order one.

 

I've never found a reason for a "Gas Pedal" ... I don't hold a gun like that. My grip is too old and too ingrained to change now. My left (weak side) hand is too low to ever get my thumb that high on the side of the gun. When you've been doing something one way for 45-50 years, change doesn't come easy.

 

I should have talked to you first, before I spent money on a whole bunch of gas pedals. I tried the New grip style with my thumb resting on the gas pedal at Prairie Fire, and thought, "wow, maybe I need to change with the times." But sometimes the old tried and true methods remain the best option. Oh well. I'm out just under 2 bills, and a valuable lesson learned.

 

Good luck finding a gas pedal holster for your P226 or P229. There are quite a few holster manufacturers that list gas pedal holsters for the P320 and the P365. I'm sure you can find one out there to meet your desires. If nothing else, you many have a local holster manufacturer working out of his/her garage that can make the holster for you.

 

I liked the gas pedal on my P226 X5 STAS as an index point, and the CompTac holsters accommodate it just fine. I’m less excited about them than I used to be.

 

I have a giant gas pedal on my Bullseye .22 but don't have any interest in having one on a carry gun.

 

All of mine have a Gas Pedal *With the exception of the Bul 1911 Commander but I don't carry, all of mine are range toys and the GP makes the groupings much tighter and happen much faster BUT, I am not trying to fit them into a Holster, so I get it ...

 

Yeah I found out the holster issue on my G34, great idea on any pistol until you want to holster it........

 

I went with Garrett Holsters for my P226 X-Five w/Gas Pedal. They called, verified I knew what I was asking for (wanted one made for the gun with the gas pedal), and turned it around for me in quick order. Very happy with the fit and quality of the holster.

The only place I have a gas pedal is on my jeep

 

I shoot revolvers as well as autos, and have been down the road with different grips, including the index-on-the-triggerguard, that has led us to ugly guns, with a right angle TG.
Not a low speed/high drag guy, in any case. It won't be forever that MFGs put gas pedals on standard pistols, and we'll be saying, "what in hell is that for?"

For duty use no, for competition yes. There are other benefits in competition.

 

Agreed, and the factory designed gas pedal on my X-Five Legion is just fine for competition, and fun at the range.

 

Have you tried one of the Armory Craft Sport Takedown Lever (for the P250 or P320)? I never did like it when Sig changed from their original takedown lever on the P250 and moved to the flat takedown lever they use on the P320. However, Armory Craft has a great takedown lever that is even better than the original Sig takedown lever. For me, it takes the place of the gas pedal (yeah, I tried one of those) but will fit in any holster designed for either the P250 or the P320. And it will work for you just like the gas pedal (but without the need for a special holster).

 

Tanks. I'll have to check it out.

 

I have the sport takedown on all my 320's including my X-ten. I like them as they aren't huge and no holster issues at all with them. Makes a great index for consistent hand placement.

 

I love Gas peddles 🔥🔥🔥 shoot Flat 🎯

 

The problem is getting holsters. You can find Kydex, but those of us who like leather are not as successful. I have the Icarus grip module that you show in your photo, and there are a bunch of Kydex holster makers who make holster for it. Icarus also makes an ACE 365 AXG Macro grip module that no one makes holster for, either Kydex or leather. I've made a post asking if anyone knows of a holster manufacturer that makes one for that Icarus grip module. So far, no responses. And none of the holster makers that Icarus lists on their website make a holster for it, either. If you look at the photo that I posted in my posting, you can see that the muzzle end of the ACE 365 AXG Macro grip module is taller than the Icarus grip module in your photo (my photo shows both of them together from the muzzle end). I am going to end up going to one of our local leather holster makers to get the custom holster made.

 

Ok, here's my Macro with new Icarus AXG grip without built in gas pedals. Fits my original Macro leather holster fine too. The grip feels incredible too, like a glove in my hand.

 

Nice! Yours appears to not have the same issue my AXG module does. Here are photos of my ACE 365 AXG Macro. The second photo shows a front-on comparison of the AXG module with the Icarus ACE 365 XMacro module. Note the difference in height of the front of the AXG module. If you compare it to yours, you can see the obvious difference in height. That is why it won't fit in any of my XMacro holsters. So, I guess I need to contact Icarus directly and ask how they plan on fixing the problem with my module.
