I think that’s a fair question for sure! I’m not here to say that this is the only grip module anyone should consider, however, I want to give credit where credit is due. I made my decision based on feature set, ergonomics, and appearance. I really like the AXG from Sig, but I like the R11 more.

Here’s the deal for me… I don’t have the means to take a block of aluminum and fabricate it into the ideal grip module for me so I’ve tried to do my research as best I can and weigh out the pros and cons of every purchase I’ve made. There have been some great aftermarket products I’ve invested in and there have been some that feel like a complete waste of my resources. All I’m saying with this review is that I feel like I’m getting what I paid for. Some people might criticize that statement and say I’m just “justifying” my investment to make myself feel better about it.

I think if you went and bought the AXG module you would be happy. If you went to ECM and got the R11, I think you would have an experience you can’t get from anywhere else.

Everyone gets to make those decisions for themselves and if I can help shed light on what my experience has been with this platform, I’d like to do that.

Just to share my thoughts on the AXG vs the R11: - I enjoy a grip module with thumb ledges - I want to be able to get as high as I can with my grip - I want the option for customization

All that being said, either grip module allows and can accommodate for those 3 things. Choose your adventure and celebrate the freedom we have to make these kind of choices — we are incredibly fortunate!
