J frame grips

[magnum0710]

Can anyone here identify what grips these are exactly and confirm they're actually for a round butt J frame? Came across these and it says they're Hogue Tamers but they look nothing like the tamers or any other Hogues I've seen for J frames. Does Hogue even make a rubber grip without finger grooves for the J's? I'm guessing they're probably something else in the wrong package but they're listed as new.

I've seen ones that resemble your photo for a Ruger LCR.

Those are factory grips for the M&P Bodyguard revolver. Someone probably upgraded their grips and put the originals in the blister pack.

The cross screw at the bottom makes me think those won't work on a conventional J frame.

I wonder I'd they'd fit the 642, I actually wouldn't mind those style grips. They cover the backstrap yet they're still thin.

I never owned an M&P Bodyguard Revolver, but I would say no.
Hogue Tamers are designed to fit on a conventional J frame and the M&P Bodyguard.

OEM S&W M&P Bodyguard grips appear to be one piece and slide on from the bottom, with a cross screw at the bottom. A conventional J frame has a grip pin at the bottom of the frame and there's no room for a cross screw.

Thanks! I guess I'll have to continue my search. I'm hoping to find a better set of grips but don't want anything huge. I pocket carry my 642 alot, I like the factory grips but want something that covers the backstrap. I'd really like to try the tamers but they look like they'd be too big to pocket carry. I wish there was something like the factory Ruger LCR grips for the 642, the bantams look close but don't cover the backstrap.
