What about it aren’t you comfortable with? Changing out a grip isn’t going to make Night/Day difference in that regard.
When I was a firearms instructor I tended to stay away from that word… comfort. It never seemed to have any place. In pistol training, comfort leads people to instinctively take the wrong grip. That is why new shooters all grip a pistol in nearly the same wrong way! While the correct grip, Thumbs pointing Forward, is actually quite Uncomfortable, to a new shooter. That is, until one is used to it. Then they wonder how they could ever have gripped it differently! There are several other areas this same thing happens. Stance… even sighting at times. For instance, when a person is cross eye dominant. Comfort, causes their shots to be several inches Right or Left depending on eye dominance. I learned early & instructed the same, to conform yourself to the system being used. I always would just shake my head when hearing a person talk about how they shoot X pistol SO much more accurate than Y pistol. I made a habit of relaying this story to those I was teaching. And if there was a table with 12 different pistols, in different calibers/cartridges, I would still shoot each one with relative accuracy. Some may show slightly better than others, but all would be accurate.
Accuracy doesn’t care about comfort. It only cares about fundamentals & consistency. (As it relates to the shooter, not the gear.) If a person finds comfort DOES in fact, take a toll on accuracy, it means they have adopted bad habits instead of focusing on the fundamentals. As a result, they are not consistent.
That aside, if it’s simply a matter of wanting comfort, having nothing to do with accuracy, I completely understand. To me, it goes along the same line as aesthetics. While it won’t change consistency/accuracy in the least, I still want my firearms to be attractive! Same goes for something like a sharp line digging into my hand. While it’s not going upset my consistency, I’d rather it not be there, LOL!
