I designed those. I wanted a hole and lanyard but was overruled by the beancounters. Its not that difficult to do. Remove the grip by heating up with a heat gun or hairdryer. Prick punch about 3/8" from end. Drill with a small (1/8" or so) then open up hole with a 1/4" drill and deburr with cointersink or file. Heat up grip and slide back on. We use rubber cement to hold the grips on. Then put a hole through the grip with the 1/4" drill.
