Grip Control thumb rest for Walther PDP

Grip Control – foldable thumb rest for Walther PDP & Walther PDP Steel Frame

The Grip Control from BlackSteel replaces the original disassembly lever on your Walther PDP – available with a polymer frame or PDP Steel Frame – with a patented, folding thumb rest .
