Default 2" .357 mag cutting knuckles up on trigger finger any ideas?
My taurus .357 2" is busting up knuckles on every shooter who shoots it with .357 mag loads, H110 125 JHP goes fast and hard, but recoils cuts trigger finger on the knuckle. Other than no more mags, what can I wrap around the trigger guard to help fix this? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Lever action rifle users often wrap the lever with leather. Might help your situation.

Seems that a set of large rubber grips may help?

I'll bet you get more responses if you repost in "Firearms & knives- other brands". This forum is for competition with Smith's only.

Grips are soft sticky rubber factory grips, my trigger finger is getting it's knuckle busted on the lower / right hand side of my index finger, violent recoil i guess.. maybe I will try and find leather or other soft rubber to cover the trigger guard. It looks identical to this one:

Those look nice, But the knuckle on the right index finger is still exposed.
