installed TANDEMKROSS HiveGrips on my S&W Victory
* Aggressively textured rubber for improved grip in any shooting condition
* Patented impact and vibration dampening material
* Ergonomic finger grooves for better control - ideal for speed and accuracy
these grips have a nice feel and make the Victory fit in my hand much better...

Any issues with magazine release or use?
Thanks for the review, I have been on the fence about these grips. I'm still on the fence, but leaning in...

So I finally "pulled the trigger" on these. I found them for $38 on MidwayUSA shipped.
TandemKross Hive Grip SW22 Victory Rubber Black - UPC: 769498483121
I guess I was a little too aggressive doing the final tightening, and I snapped a grip screw.
I contacted Smith and Wesson customer service, and bada-bing, they are shipping me out new grip screws free of charge! I found the customer service above and beyond what I expected.
love
-a happy customer

I installed them on my Victory as well as the extended mag release. No issues at all and the grips are very comfortable especially with the low felt recoil of the 22.

Bought wood grips, wish they'd have had these hive grips then. Put the tandem kross trigger on, never have gotten it adjusted to my liking, anyone find this to be the case, any solutions?

I've had the Hive Grips since right after their release and have one issue. I often find that the safety has been engaged after a few shots. Apparently the base of my thumb hits it and pushed it up. The factory grips have a bump that reduces this issue.
I'm going to try and find something I can use to build up that area. Maybe Sugru moldable plastic.

Do you find it impossible to put your thumb on the safety while shooting?

I try and keep my thumbs forward as I was taught, but I might try that next time.
