Jack, the Pachmayr Slip on #4 will work on both the PM9 and the P380 and I highly recommend. Other options for increasing the girth of the backstrap and adding additional cushioning is some cut-to-fit Dr. Scholl's mole skin placed under the slip-on grip. As for other slip on grips, Uncle Mikes I believe has a small one that will fit. The Handall Jr. should work fine on the P380, not sure on the PM9. As far as strength, the Pachmayr is the strongest of all and easy to trim if so desired. It's just not that easy to find but our store has them.

If your looking for some grip modification to fill out your hand, Decal Grips would seem to offer the least benefit, since they only cover a small portion of the side of the grip. I tried the Decal Sand Grips and didn't like them. Left them on for less than a week. I also tried the early Talon Grips(rubber) for the CM9 and really liked them. I had those on for about a year. and the portion of the Talon Grip that covers the sear panel started coming off. At that point, I had some experience using GunTape on my G26 and SAR K2P so I tried using GunTape on the my CM9. That has been the best grip, by far, of any of the grip solutions I've tried. It really does seem to fill out your hand much better than you could reasonably expect, considering the thickness of the material involved. With the GunTape I was able to wrap all sides of the grip. I think it looks good and it feels great in my hand. The newer Talon Grips are an improvement, in that they extend the wrap to cover the base of the grip. I prefer the GunTape, because I get better coverage at the back of the grip, the pinky extension, and If I have problems with the sear panel coverage, it is a simple matter to cut a piece to cover that portion of the grip, and not be forced to replace the entire Talon Grip.

BTW, I believe the problem with the tape covering the sear panel is the result of lubricants migrating from within the sear panel and contaminating the grip tape adhesive.
