642-2 with Excaliber Rosewood

37 with Pachmayer Grippers; since changed to Magnas and Tyler-T

Smith & Wesson RB Combats on top, Nill on bottom. Each of these covers the backstrap, which aids me in shooting, though neither is the best for pocket carry. The Nills are my absolute favorite grips, I have never tried a pair that didn't make the firearm feel like an extension of my hand.

Got 'em from www.gungripsupply.com Great grips, but not S&W factory.

Hello.

Another set of the inexpensive HideOut Grips. These are on a 642 carried every day for years and they've been relieved to work with speedloaders.

Best.

Yeah, I guessed they were not factory but I like customs that resemble originals. Those look good to me. I am looking for a set for a 642. Will these work well for a females (smaller) hands?

Where can the hideout grips be purchased?
What do they feel like?

 

[Stephen A. Camp]

Hello. I purchased mine here:

http://www.brownells.com/aspx/NS/store/productdetail.as...t=hideout%20grips&s=

Mine are the "textured" ones but those are not all that "grabby". I usually work mine over with an engraving pen. How they "feel" is subjective but to me they seem sort of like a "thick" set of standard grips with a short T-grip covering the front grip strap.

Best.

If everyone might consider listing the grip as well as depicting it/them in photographs it would be helpful to newbies and even those of us with some experience. Also, comments as to recoil with +P, etc., would be appreciated.

I would post photos but I have nothing special.
For carry and shooting I have Hogue Bantams and Monogrips in rubber. My hand is building up with the Bantams so that I am near shooting/carry them exclusively.

Are there any grips comparable to the Bantams? I don't think so when you want concealability and light weight. Also, I think they're better for pain of recoil than the stock UM boot grips.

 

[ifilef]

I'm considering a pair of the Hideout Grips, but I'm curious as to their actual weight.

And I don't have a clue as to which of them I'd prefer or would be a better choice.

My Hogue Bantams actually weigh in at only 1.4 oz. on my digital postal scale.

 

[Stephen A. Camp]

Don't have a postal scale but my cheapie scale says 2 oz. for the Hideout Grips and grip screw.
