I love my Ruger SP101. I really do. My only issue with it though, has been the grips. I’ve gone through no less than 5 different sets of grips. I’m looking for a Unicorn. I want some nice, tight, compact grips that both conceal well and doesn’t punish me for pulling the trigger. Shown above are my current grips. They shoot well. While being a “Boot Grip” they don’t hurt my hand because they be THICC. This Shorty is FAT. So it fills the hand and distributes recoil very well. The problem is because of that girth, it prints like I’m pulling a billboard with me. And the grips are very grabby and any covering garment over it is going to start climbing. I’ve decided that these are terrible. I need new grips. I need to find that Unicorn. Leading Suggestion has been VZ Grips.
Perhaps something in G-10, that doesn’t have the stickiness to clothing the Pachmyer rubbers do?
Yeah, I’m leaning VZ Grips. They look good too. What I really want is some nice wood Boot Grips… But dang they would HURT in actual firing.
Probly not what you’re looking for, but I’ve found these to be quite comfortable. As a preface, I have fairly large hands, and just don’t do well with boot grips.
These are maybe a bit long — depending, of course, on how you carry. They allow me to get little finger on the grip, and that makes for better control with magnums. And I dress for the gun (early slob). I usually wear a t-shirt and an open cover shirt, with my SP in a very comfortable pancake holster from Master. That pulls it in close, and is an easy draw.
