The Right (And Wrong) Grips

K-Frames

In my modest S&W collection, I have several K-Frames with original Magna-style grips. These were polished along with the grip frame and numbered to the specific piece, so I hate to take them off and inevitably lose them. When I want to shoot one of my older K-Frames, I generally add a grip adapter. The original Tyler T-Grip was made of aluminum, while later Pachmayr production used a tough synthetic. These fill the gap behind the trigger guard and improve handling at a modest cost.

For K-Frame S&Ws, my favorite grip is the Miculek style, designed by revolver wizard Jerry Miculek and made by Hogue. Hogue makes other grip styles as well, all of superb quality. I know of no other K-Frame grip that feels as good in the hand or handles and shoots as well. Jerry said he likes the grips to be smooth so he can “squirm the gun” if his initial grasp on the gun during a draw isn’t perfect. Once he tightens his grip on the gun, it doesn’t move any further. Smooth, not slippery, is how he describes the grip.
