Ruger 22/45, any grip options on those, they are so skinny!?
« on: November 13, 2006, 02:54:13 PM »
Thinking of getting a Ruger 22/45 plastic framed .22 MK. 3.  But, unlike a real .45 ACP, the grips are molded solid, it is a little on the thin side for me.  Are there any options to widen it, like a rubber wrap around type used on Tokarev pistols?

Thanks.

I have this on my 22/45:

My hands are pretty big (exactly why I liked the 22/45 to begin with) and this sleeve makes for a nice fit.
The problem with troubleshooting is....sometimes it shoots back!

I havn't seen any.  I didn't buy the 22/45 for that reason.  It just didn't feel right.  It was less expensive but I just couldn't do the grip thing.

This is not my gun but it looks like he did a nice job on it and give directions.
