I have a couple of Taurus 856's and I bought this because I thought VZ Grips and 2 tone coloring looked "cool". But after I got it I quickly realized I hated the VZ grips. The shape and the extra thickness forces a change in the way you grip the gun. They force your hand up towards the hammer and and make it much more difficult to hold the gun correctly. And they change the angle at which you pull the trigger from straight back, to pulling upwards toward the hammer making the trigger pull seem much heavier.
AFTER I bought it I looked at reviews on some sellers websites and many people mentioned how they hated the VZ Grips on this gun and had actually replaced them with the stock Taurus rubber grips - that's when you know these are bad grips.
Long and short of it is: The Taurus 856 is a great little gun for the money, BUT the VZ grips on this one are a Total Fail and you should not be paying a premium for this gun.
A huge jagged grip for a compact 38 is silly but the gun would be fine for $320ish. Looks like Impact Guns is trying to unload some flops
