If you’re rocking a Taurus GX4 but want something a little different than the factory polymer grip, you may want to look at Mischief Machine. The company recently started showing an aluminum grip module called the Commander on social media. It offers a number of updates in both materials and features for your Taurus pistol.
Taurus GX4 Commander Gripframe
Mischief Machine already offers aluminum grip frames for the SIG Sauer P365 and the IWI Masada Slim. They’re teasing a Springfield Armory release as well. Most likely this will be for the Echelon pistols. In the meantime, the Taurus GX4 Commander grip module has just landed.
Mischief’s Commander is an improved grip module made from a solid block of 7075-T6 Aluminum. It has a 1911 grip angle and an enlarged mag well. There’s also an interface provided for a future Magwell attachment. The Commander additionally has an enlarged, ambidextrous magazine release.
Being an aluminum frame, it uses G10 grip panels and backstraps. This lets you customize both the look and feel of your pistol. The included rail is Picatinny 1913 compatible and they suggest using a Streamlight TLR7SUB weapons light.
To swap to a Mischief Machine Commander, you just need to drop in your GX4 assembly into their grip assembly. Then add a GX4 barreled slide with a 3.7″ or longer barrel or an XL slide. The Commander grip assembly uses Taurus 15-round magazines.
The Mischief machine Commander comes in a black hard anodized finish, but Cerakote is available as well. Colors offered are McMillan Tan, Cobalt, Titanium, Midnight Bronze, Multicam Dark Green, as well as custom options. Cerakote finishes add two weeks to the lead time on orders.
The Mischief Commander grip module retails for $349.00. A basic Cerakote color adds $35 to that price, and a custom color is $60 additional.
