Pachmayr 03249 Gripper Grips, S&W J Frame Round Butt,Black

Full size grip but my J frame but doesn't hurt concealability. Always a great product from this company, fits like a glove.

The original wood grip looks great but not a comfortable grip. This Pachmayr Gripper absorbs recoil even better than expected. Note: It’s not a 2 piece but a “clamshell “ design.

Best aftermarket pistol grips I've ever used. Way more comfortable and durable then original grips. Helps with better pistol control which aids in great accuracy. Quality for the cost. Highly recommend them.

Fit like a glove on my old 5 screw S&W Model 60. Feels great in my hand, much better than the old wooden grips. I bought this gun in 1977 to serve as my boot gun when I worked as a law enforcement officer. Have not shot too many rounds through it during its life because it hurt with the wood grips. Can't wait to get to the range to see the difference.

Having shot with a Pachmayr grip before, I bought this for my new Smith and Wesson 642. It's a perfect fit for my hand, giving my pinky something to grip which was not available with the stock grip. I'm going to carry with it on, despite the slightly increased size. With the way I carry on the 5 o'clock position, it should not be an issue for concealment. The rubber has a great feel and the checkering provides a positive grip. This grip will eat some of the recoil and tighten up those groupings. I'm also able to use my speed loader with this grip, which I was unable to do with the factory grip. My only observation upon install is that the seam does not completely meet on the bottom. There's a small gap. If it were not for this issue, I would have given 5 stars. However, I don't see this being a performance issue and I'm not terribly concerned with how it looks. I bought this for function, not ascetics. If I buy other J frames in the future, one of these is definitely going on.

Wrap around, easy install on S&W 637, do not have to remove the pin in the butt of the handgun.

As with MANY other reviews for this grip, it's easy to install, but fit is very sloppy. If you tighten the screw too tightly, the grip has a huge gap between the two halves. I didn't like it.. it looks lousy and sloppy. If you loosen it, the gap lessens... doesn't go away completely, but the grip feels loose. Pachmayr could do way better. I sent this back immediately, didn't even try it at the range. I got the Hogue Tamer grip, and while it's a tad more complicated to install, it's not difficult at all, doesn't require special tools, and fits a hundred times better than three Pachmayr. Feels great in my hand, and controls the gun well. This grip is garbage...go with the Hogue.

Some complain it's not the same Pachmayr as before, I see little to no change from my older grips. They work well. I don't think I have a S&W that doesn't get a set of these grips.
