If your hands are that big, you don’t need larger grips, you need a LARGER gun.
I just can’t control a gun with rubber. Hand is still pointing at the target, but the muzzle is making pilots nervous.
Roger that. I NEVER carried a J-frame 38 in harm's way at work. Even with Pachmayr Compacs, I have trouble running the little monsters. They ARE just as cute as can be, though.
Pachmayr grips might have saved my life once. A client within a C-store parking lot in Palm Desert took exception to my interruption of his "spare change" begging and attacked me with fists and feet. I felt him reaching for my holster, so I grasped the grip with my right hand and covered that assembly with my left. His response was to grab the outboard edge of the issue Bianchi breakfront uniform holster
and bend it outward, ruin the holster, and free up the barrel--which he tried to grasp. Enough of this noise--I took the Model 64 into my left hand, and punched this idiot once as hard as I could--and down he went. The holster was toast, I still had a Model 10 x 2" under the car coat, so I tossed the 64 into the patrol car trunk onto the wool blankets kept there. The guy was coming around by this time, so I got him cuffed up and loaded into the back seat without much foofahrah. He didn't cause any more ruckus at the hospital or later at the booking desk. The watch lieutenant had some initial concerns about "Use of force" until he saw the destroyed holster and learned how that occurred. I got a new holster from inventory, R&R'ed the ruined one, and went back outside to play. So--I have an abiding fondness for neoprene handgun grips.
