I need new grips for my 642!

[ctaggart]

I would like new grips for my snub that give a little more cushion on the rear but I would like to keep the length of them just as short. Does anybody have any suggestions or pictures?

A little help here. What make and model of snub do you have?:whistling:

[Arbee]

Round-butt or flat-butt 642?

I have badger grips on my snubs, their wood and fill my hand nicely and I have big hands.

Hogue and pachmyer make rubber grips that cover the back strap that would give more cushion.

Don't ahve any experience with the Pachmyers.

The Hogue monogrips in nylon is what i just got. The extend down past the handle frame to give your pinky a place to rest. The feel great in my hand. I also think they bring up the sight picture more naturally. Only bad think is that they are a little bigger and print more.

I am considering getting the Hogue Bantam grips which one person on this sight said he liked better than the standard issue uncle mikes boot grips.

B sure to post and let us know what you end up with and how you like them.

Thanks,

Joe

Excalibers combat boot grips are nice also. It's what I use on mine and I love them. I do have my eyes on the Badgers though.
