Most comfortable grips on handguns

[Redhawk5.5+P+]

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHogue, and applies to shotguns. I have Hogues on quite a few guns, 92fs, Taurus 94, Mossberg 500 pistol grip[amazing when shooting no pain!] Slip on for my Glock 19/26.

I'm starting to consider Taurus as a swear word, but I loved my once owned (good gun) M608.

Well I think I am about to get a part time job, and with that I really want to buy another model 94 or maybe the 22mag/22lr. Give them a try, I have no problem with my model 94. 3k+ rounds.

If we're going with rubber wrap around grips...HOGUE...but they will loose their texture over time.

Can any one recommend some great custom wood 1911 grip artists? I've found a few but wondered who you guys prefer or recommend.

BDD8 You might check out Raasco grips at: www.raascogrips.com The ones below are smooth, but they do offer checkered, I believe. This pair of paper based micarta grips on my Ruger SR1911 give me a good grip and look like aged ivory...beautiful. Raasco delivered them in a week and a half. Good work. Here's the pic.

Best Regards, Rod

I prefer well fitting wooden grips. On target and range guns the grip texture can be rougher than on carry or action sports guns.

I prefer Nills for fit and finish. They are ergonomically correct for my hand.

I prefer the older factory target grips on Smith & Wesson K frame guns. Newer versions often are poorly fitted, and very blocky and square feeling. The factory grips on Colt Single Action Army's are the best ever for me, the eagle type.

The rubber grips all feel too narrow at the back for me. I like a slightly rounded profile in the rear, like the old Smith K frame targets, rather than the narrow and squarish feel of the Pachmayers and Hogues. The J round butt and K round butt Pachmayers feel ok, but I'm still not a fan of the rubber. Many rubber things Including gun grips) seem to smell like skunk to me.

I tend to put Hogue rubber wrap around with finger grooves on all my semi-autos.

I haven't experimented much with changing out the grips on my revolvers yet. I don't like the grips with a lot of checkering as they are painful after a number rounds. I know the sharpness can be knocked off with sandpaper but I would rather find a revolver grip that looks good and feels right without a lot of tinkering.

Rubber is the best by far, for feel. But most anything else looks better, especially good wood.
