Fixation System for the Backstrap of Pistol Grips
The present invention describes a fixation system for the backstrap of pistol grips, preferably micro-compact pistols. The present invention aims to promote better ergonomics for different users of the same pistol. As each person has different hand dimensions, it is not possible to develop a grip geometry that ensures an ideal hold for everyone, thus, the present invention describes a system that allows the interchangeability of backstraps of different sizes, all of which can be fitted to the pistol's grip. To attach the backstrap to the grip, a housing and a tab equipped with at least one through-hole are designed on the grip and a protrusion is arranged on the backstrap, which fits into said housing, and holes for a connecting element to be inserted and held in the holes and the through-hole.
