Beefy Grips

[boggie]

I've got a S&W 629 classic and I'm looking for bigger grips.  I don't have big fat hands just real long fingers and when I grip the revolver the trigger touches up at my second knuckle.  Anybody have any suggestions for some over sized grips?  I'm assuming I'll have to go with wood grips, no problem there.

Find a shop that has the Hogue grips and see if they have any installed to test for fit.  I have somewhat large hands and the Hogues seemed a little small.  I found a Pachmyer that was a little larger for my Ruger and I had to get a blank and carve for my Dan Wesson, to get the best fit.

My experience with Hogues are that their wooden grips, especially the 'no-finger-groove' models, are significantly beefier than their equivalent rubber grip. I base this on the 2 Blackhawk and 1 Security Six grips that I've had on my Rugers.

I will agree about the pachmayer grips are a little bigger the ones without finger grooves. I have small hands and short fingers and the houges with finger grooves fit better. I had a set of pachmayer on my s&w 27 and put the houges on with finger grooves and they fit better.

I could use some beefy grips but mainly just to fill the hand so the trigger is centered with the tip of the index finger. Mine are currently stock though as I don't want to take away from the lines of a S/A revolver.

I'll look into the Hogues and see if they fit better.  I was hoping there was some other names out there I hadn't heard of, other than the usual suspects of Pachmyer and Hogue.

You could always contact Herretts, they make walnut Jordon Trooper that are much bigger than factory grips?

S.B. ......................I might just have to come up there to borrow that piece for a while.....I am trying to think of what I can offer you for collateral now but it is tough
as it could be a MM/DD/YYYY thing.

Pachmayr Decellerators are beefy and fit my long-fingered hands well on a 629. Oddly I went back to the factory grips and have been using them happily. Although the Pachmayrs satisfied my desire for a beefier grip, I find that I shoot better and get a more consistent grip with the factory grips.

Questor - I have to go with you on this one.  I have tried a number of different types and styles of grips on my 29 and on my 28 and wound up going back to factory magnum grips.  I would prefer to find a couple of pair of the dark Rosewood smooth magnum grips as those fit my hand the best.  I'll just have to keep on lookin'....  Mikey.

I can recommend Herrett's. They make the grip (stock) to fit your hand.

Now, BR, you know the trouble I've had with that in the past?

I work as a construction laborer and my hands swell depending on what I'm doing at the time. I find that different grips fit my hands at different times?
