HogueOverMolded Rubber Grip for S&W 460, 500, & Governor Round Butt (Tamer Conversion), K, L, N, X, & Z Frames, Black - 19022

Great fit on a new production 686-6 Plus (7-shot) .357. Much better grip than the factory ones which were too slim. Soft rubber, easy installation

These grips work great and fit is correct. I was a little concerned by the reviews that stated that there were gaps around the frame, but I thought I'd take the chance. When I initially put them on, there indeed were gaps around the frame. After I studied the problem for a minute, I realized 2 things.1. You must hold the grips in the position that they should be in and push up on them while tightening. 2. If gaps start to appear, you have over tightened them. Back the screw off until there are no gaps. I have used the Smith with these grips on it and everything was/is fine. The grips are secure, no problems

Perfect fit on my 629 Stealth Hunter

For me the most important feature of this grip is that it completely covers the backstrap of the revolver grip frame. This not only moderates felt recoil, but also protects the metal backstrap from rust-inducing hand oils and sweat.Now for the SWITCHEROO - the grip I first received was NOT an Overmolded Grip, but instead was a different Hogue grip (looked like a Hogue Smith Wesson S&W K or L Frame - 19002) that had been put into the Overmolded package. I suspect that a wily customer had kept the Overmolded grip that he ordered, put his old Hogue 19002 grip in the package, and sent it back for a refund. Fortunately, I immediately noticed that the grip had an OPEN BACKSTRAP and returned it for the genuine article. The switcheroo probably went back into inventory and will be probably be sent out again, so be on the lookout for those rogue Hogue grips!BTW, another good feature of this grip is that it is good for people with large hands.

Purchased and installed on a S&W 629 (round butt). Installation took about a minute and required only a screwdriver. Grip is sized to fit medium to large size hand. A shooter with a small hand or short finger reach may find this grip a bit too large. Grip shape and texture is perfect...provides a sure hold of the revolver while drawing, shooting, and re-holstering. Because this grip completely covers the gun's backstrap, I'm pleased to report no more painful shooting sessions with the .44 magnum. Highly recommended for softening the recoil of hard-kicking wheelguns.

Did not arrive with stirrup pin

I was very happy to finally find a grip for my 357 S&W that I really liked. Another h Hoage addition to my collection.

Nice fit on my S&W Model 69. Takes the sting out of the recoil. Allows a nice purchase on the grip to accurately fire the revolver.
