FAQ

Do you make boot grips?

For the ultra-minimalists who want the absolutely lowest-profile revolver grip for pocket carry, I do offer boot grips for the S&W J-Frame. However, the classic-style Recoil Rider CCW grip is also designed to fill the role of the boot grip. The bottom edge of the Recoil Rider grip extends only ~6mm from the base of the frame (outlined below in green). Consequently, Recoil Rider grips conceal almost identically to boot grips but provide a three-finger grip with a spot for your pinky.

Recoil Rider Revolver grips have a 3 finger grip with a dedicated spot for the pinky, but conceal carry in the pocket like a boot grip.

How do you make your grips, and what are they made of?

Recoil Rider grips are 3D printed in-house from a "rubber-like" polymer. This combination of manufacturing technique and material enables me to produce an extremely lightweight grip that absorbs recoil without snagging on clothing.

Are there chemicals that should be avoided during cleaning?

No, proceed with cleaning as normal. Solvents and other firearm cleaning agents can cause cosmetic discoloration of the affected area if left in contact for several hours. For example, when in contact overnight, the affected area may have a glossier surface finish, but won't have degraded functionality or durability. For normal firearm cleaning procedures in which the solvent is wiped off of the grip within minutes of application, I did not observe any effect.

Will you make grips for other firearms?

Yes; I'm currently developing grips for the Ruger SP101 and the Kimber K6S DASA. The best way to stay informed when these grips release is to subscribe to the email list below. If there is another firearm you'd like to see in the lineup, I encourage you to contact me.

What size should I get?

If you've already consulted the size chart and are still unsure, here are a few data points that may be helpful:

Go with the Large Fit if you:

  • Want to maximize recoil reduction. This size has a wider and thicker backstrap.
  • Find the Uncle Mike's J-Frame Boot Grip #59010 too small.
  • Find the the stock Ruger LCR grips comfortable (either the Hogue Rubber Tamer or the Hogue Rubber Tamer Cushion without finger grooves).

Go with the Standard Fit if you:

  • Want the slimmest package for pocket carry. This size has a slimmer profile, which enables an easier draw from the pocket.
  • Find the slim profile of the Uncle Mike's J-Frame Boot Grip #59010 comfortable.
  • Find the Stock Ruger LCR grips too large.
