The Hogue name has long been a hallmark of excellence in the realm of handgun grips, and their latest offering does not disappoint. Born from the ingenuity of LAPD officer Guy Hogue, who sought to improve his duty revolver’s grip decades ago, this rubber monogrip continues that legacy with precision and innovation.
Crafted specifically for the Smith & Wesson N Frame Square Butt revolvers, this monogrip is molded from a durable synthetic rubber. Unlike inferior materials that may feel spongy or tacky, Hogue's rubber offers a soft yet firm recoil-absorbing experience. Importantly, it stands resilient against all firearm solvents and oils—ensuring longevity without deterioration.
This single-piece grip installs effortlessly onto your revolver frame from below without requiring any modification to your firearm—a testament to its thoughtful engineering. The inclusion of a patented steel "stirrup" device allows seamless adaptation by clipping over the existing stock pin or bottom strap of the frame.
A key advantage lies in its design: allowing shooters to maintain a high handhold on the backstrap. This positioning effectively lowers the bore line which reduces muzzle rise during recoil—a crucial factor when aiming for rapid-fire recovery time with two-handed shooting techniques.
An additional feature includes ambidextrous palm swells providing equal comfort and control whether you are right- or left-handed—demonstrating Hogue's commitment to versatility and user-friendly design.
