I bought a set for my Taurus 856UL and Immediately noticed a weight reduction. I put them on my scale and it was confirmed. Close to 2 once’s lower than with my old grips. It is also much more pleasant to shoot. Thank you for a great product folks!!
Much better than the factory grip
This is my third Recoil Rider grip. (I know there's a program for that) and I was not surprised to find it fit perfectly. I bought a blem this time, I swear I can't find what's the matter with it. I keep buying these because they're lighter, really absorb recoil and couldn't be made better. I use them on revolvers, all of which can all use with a little bit less weight. The last two have been a boot grip. Obviously I think these are the best on the market.
Very good feeling in the hand, it's soft without being sticky like the original grip on my LCR, making it a superior pocket carry grip option. 10/10 would buy again if another was needed.
I really am a huge fan of this grip. The reduced forces felt from heavy loaded 357 mag are very noticeable. The grip itself is more than enough to hang onto while also providing the correct make/texture to pull cleanly from concealed with no issues. I’ll be looking here first for grip upgrades every time.
Will add the customer service answering questions have been A+
I have much larger-than-average hands, and it's such a relief to find grips that specifically come in a Small and Large size. The Large size completely fixes any issues I had with getting the correct trigger reach thanks to a nice thick backstrap.
I was skeptical at first about the claim that they provided the squishiness of rubber without the tacky-stickiness that drags on clothing, and since I'm shooting .22WMR I'd be fine even if they were solid G10, but that's exactly how they work. I've got some hockey tape on mine for if my hands get sweaty, but as far as drag on clothing the grips are perfect even without it.
The size is also excellent, being no taller than the factory grip option, so no issue with concealment.
I will definitely be picking up another set whenever I get a centerfire revolver.
Fits perfectly and securely on my S&W 340PD I carry for personal protection while camping/hiking/trailing.
The thick padding on the grip makes putting .357 through it significantly more tolerable, with .38/+P ammo benefiting as well.
The texture of the grip is perfect: not sticky or tacky, and has the right amount of knurling/texture to preventing it from being slippery.
I'm sure this will vary person-to-person but the Large option of the grip actually fit the shape of my hand perfectly. I have larger than average hands with long fingers, and the bottom has just enough for my pinky to hold securely without sacrificing the rounded ergonomics on the bottom.
Quality product. 100% happy with my purchase. Will recommend to anyone looking for a quality J-Frame grip.
Made it to the range to try these grips out. Was very pleased with the recoil. I have a Smith & Wesson 940 9mm Davidson Exclusive that came with VZ boot grips. With those grips I would get a sore wrist after 25 rounds or so. Now with these new Recoil Rider grips, I can shoot a full box of 50 rounds and not notice any soreness in my 68 year old wrist. The grips conceal very well AIWB or in the pocket of cargo pants/shorts.
I’m very happy with these grips and with my XL size hands I still get a little bit of my pinkie on them. The install was as easy as it gets.
Thanks for a great grip.
Excellent grips . Lightweight, not too sticky or grippy but plenty grippy enough. Can get three fingers on it. Works well in AIWB or OWB holster or out of pocket . Recoil absorption is really good . Best all around I’ve found and i have accumulated a drawer full of grips for j-frames and LCRs through the years .
I researched all the well-known replacement grips. Chose RecoilRider Boot grips for my 642 and CCWs for my 640. Replaced factory grips. Unbelievable difference in felt recoil on both as well as much improved grip position. Very natural grip angle.
These are outstanding.
I got the large size and it helped reducing the felt recoil by a lot. Installation was very easy, especially after warming up the grip with a hair dryer. The removal of the original grip was a huge pain. I wish Recoil Rider would include the grip removal tool.
I had a set of G10 grips on my Kimber k6xs and and the recoil impulse wasn't terrible, but very noticeable!! Enter the Recoil Rider grip! This grip made shooting the snubby much more enjoyable and my accuracy improved because I wasn't anticipating the recoil as much!!! Great product!!!
Saw lots of reviews on these for many different revolvers especially the diamondback SDR went ahead and purchased and I couldn't be happier if not any bigger than the factory grip yeah it seems to hold three fingers the grip angle on it seems more natural as well doesn't tear up my stomach or stick to my shirt super happy
This grip is a game changer. Easy to install and it fits like a dream. I loved it so much that I went ahead and ordered a second one.
Keep up the great work!
Just received my LCRX Grip..Perfect going to buy for my S&W 642...wish I had found these before spending $100's on grips that are now in my closet...You wont be disappointed!

Unlike other rubber grips, Recoil Rider grips have a non-tacky surface finish, so they won't print or snag your clothing or skin when carrying AIWB.

Very easy to get a repeatable grip. Your fingers just fall into place where they need to be.

If I had these grips years ago, I wouldn't have sold my J-Frame.

The recoil mitigation is noticeable. It shoots more like a rubber grip but without the downsides.
