Anyone else love Hogue monogrips?

[2Afan]

Some comfy shooting in my future… just installed these on my 15-2 combat masterpiece and my model 547

Sorry, NO! I do have some lying around that I store for what if. Wood mono grips much better! Bob

 

[NY-1]

They fit great compared to whatever Lyman did to cheapen Pachmayrs, but I always thought that the Hogue Monogrip's stippling pattern and design made it one of the ugliest options out there.

Might just be my aging weak hands… the rubber grips help me keep a better purchase on the revolvers

The wood looks much better.. IMHO, but my shooting is improved with the Hogues (on the few other revolvers upon which I've also installled them)

 

[wellthought1]

Love Hogue monogrips and I love pretty wood grips too!

 

[Babysitr]

bought a used set recently, put on my 27-2 shooter..haven't tried them yet,they feel good,but dont look near as good as the football targets

 

[BAM-BAM]

Wood with single finger grove are OK. A bit long for my taste

Craig Spegel's Boot Grips and extended Boot are better..... for me!

 

[Telecaster]

I find them functional but hideous.

Rubber Hogue Grip

I like them better than the ones that come on new S&W's, they served me well, but I have since switched to the wood Hogue grips.

I use the mono grip on all of my working guns. Nothing is better looking than factory targets or harder to shoot than factory targets…

All about control

I shoot a lot. Black Rubber Grips matter. BRGs allow
me to handle and grip my S&W Revolvers the same
when shooting.

I like them so much I put BRG panels on my Ruger
1911. So much better control when interacting
with that Slide slamming back and forth.

When I want a rubber grip, I only use Hogue. I used to use Pachmayr, but they stopped making products that fit well after Lyman took them over.

 

[mtgianni]

My hands like them much better than my eyes do.

 

[Lou_the_welder]

I dare anyone to shoot this gun, without these grips. Full magnums. Thank you Hogue.

 

[C3Ranger]

Love 'em for the range! Not for looks or EDC.

 

[Breaker]

I have several pairs in exotic wood, rubber recoil reducing and the composite G10 material. I rotate them on my S&W revolvers to match my intended use or mood. Grip preference is subjective, but all of them consistently fit well and arrived from Hogue as advertised, so I am a fan.

 

[DeplorabusUnum]

I have them on all my N-Frames. Don't really care what they look like when I'm shooting. They just feel better and improve my accuracy over wood presentation stocks. So yes... I love them, I guess.

I do like Hogue Monogrips. As attractive as the wood ones are, I do not have any of those. My DA revolvers are all working guns and I would not want to mar the beautiful wood grips. My preference is the nylon version.

During my PPC competitive days I used either the nylon Hogue Monogrip or the Rogers (later Safariland) grips. It was a very close call. Details some other time.

I wanted to be able to get a secure grasp of the revolver, but not so secure that I could not adjust my hold, if necessary, while firing a competition string. The stippled finish, for me (YMMV) was and is ideal.

During the time I taught the state mandated CA CCW course, I introduced a substantial number of revolver shooters to the rubber Hogue Monogrips. Without exception this conversion, especially on S&W J frames, substantially improved their shooting, and as a consequence, their confidence.

On SA revolvers, it has to be stag, or faux stag as our western B movie heroes used. I think that is right in the Code of the West. If it isn't, it should be.

 

[fdover]

I have a pair on my 29-2 4" and love them. Sure makes shooting that gun more pleasant.

Hogue needs to hire a design studio to improve looks but keep the usability.
IMO nothing better for a day at the range.
Keep the beautiful wood for the safe queens and photo shoots.
