Revolver grip recommendations

[roadkillbill]

Hi, I've got a S&W 625 JM. I am not crazy about the grips, too slick and undersized in my opinion. Anybody want to share opinions? Thanks.

Hogue makes a competition grip that is fantastic. I'm still kicking myself for selling my set on the comp revo I sold, and am thinking about buying another grip for my 5" 625.

Here is a pic, it's (obviously) the gun on the bottom.



They run about $50, and come in different comfigurations. All wood, all rubber, hybrid etc. I highly recommend them. Good grip, and the pinky kick on the bottom gives you a place fro your weak hand pinky. Great stability.

hogue all the way. Had one on my super black hawk, and my super red hawk comes stock with it.

Do you have excessively sweaty hands? Personally, I can't use rubber or simple texture plastic grips. I get G10 or wood.

Negative on the sweaty hands, I think I'm leaning towards the other fellows recommendations. I like a beefier grip, with the finger grooves.

S&W used to ship N-frames with somethin' like these, in the late '80's ...



... those were the fattest grips I'd ever handled! ... but, it's a different feel from the round-to-square conversion grips!

I've since been competing mostly with a 1911 ... at which, I'm now favoring much more slender grips ... which is kinda odd, 'cause I've got XXL hands!

I now actually favor the factory/hogue rubber grips ... as they're among the most slender! ... and the extra traction is nice!

If ya want a fatter grip, but with some traction, I'd look at slippin' a hand-all 'er some such over a wood grip ... that JM might be a nice one, fer that?! ... not sure if anyone makes any such thing that'd fit well, though?! ... maybe borrow one, to check it out?!

Maybe seek out some 1-on-1 training ... work on yer grip ... if ya don't like Miculek's style ... and ya don't like Strad 'er my style ... maybe it's you?!
