Product Description
"Zero-compromise" concealed carry grips for the Kimber K6 revolver line, including the aluminum frame K6XS, the steel-frame K6S DAO, and the K6S DASA. Before, wheelgun shooters had to choose between shooting comfort (sticky rubber grips) or carry comfort (rigid wood or G10 grips). Recoil Rider revolver grips provide both, combining the recoil absorption of rubber grips with the snag-free carry comfort of wooden grips. Plus, they shed almost an entire ounce of weight for easier carry. Recoil Rider grips for the Kimber K6 cover the backstrap to optimize trigger reach, and feature an intuitive grip angle for a natural point-of-aim. Whether you're carrying your revolver AIWB or in a pocket, these grips deliver an upgraded shooting and CCW experience.
Features
- Recoil Absorption: Covers the backstrap with a cushioned, shock-mitigating material that tames even hot ammo.
- Snag-free Concealment: Unlike traditional rubber grips, Recoil Rider grips have a non-tacky exterior that glides against cover garments to prevent printing, shirt grabbing, or chafing your stomach during AIWB carry.
- Natural Point-of-Aim: Grip angle allows your sights to align naturally like a modern semi-auto.
- Low-Profile: Conceals like a two-finger boot grip while providing a full three-finger firing grip with a dedicated pinky rest.
- Optimized Trigger Reach: Adds backstrap depth for repeatable, comfortable index finger placement on the trigger.
- Featherweight Carry: Saves almost an entire ounce compared to factory grip options, making your snubnose feel effortless in a pocket or waistband.
Compatibility
- Compatible with the Kimber K6XS, Kimber K6S DAO, and Kimber K6S DASA.
- Speedloader Compatible.

Really nice grip. Easy install and control at the range was great.
Good evening David;
I want you to know how appreciative I am for your recoil rider grips for my Kimber K6 XS, 2 inch 38 caliber revolver. I had a very pleasant surprise.
I shot it with the original factory hogue grips which fit my hand well. The recoil with the original grips was harsh on the palm.
After I put on your large recoil rider grips and tried them, it was amazing how much it reduced the felt recoil, made it easier to handle with follow up shots, good accuracy at 5yards,, and actually made it a pleasure to shoot,compared to punishing experience with the original factory grips by hogue (and they are a very good product).
I also compared your recoil rider grips on the Kimber K6 to the PachMyer grips that I put on my Smith & Wesson 442 (ungraded lipseys edition). The Pachmyer grips gave me a good hand purchase on the SW 442, but the shooting experience was noticeably Not as good recoil dampening as with your grips on my Kimber. it definitely makes me want to purchase your grips for my SW 442 but I just bought the pachmyer grips so I will wait. Bottom line: I’ve always carried & shot 9 mm; but your grips make such a huge difference in comfort and control of a snub nose that I may make it my only edc.
Thank you for your service and diligence to provide such a great product.
Be safe, have a good week & be blessed

I did a review prior to shooting the pistol. I bought a dasa to be confident in my edc. I never fully trusted autos.
I shot 38 range ammo, Hornady critical defense+p and 357 Hornady. All were comfortable to shoot. I will carry the 357 rounds as I find them totally controllable. I think without the grips I would probably carry the 39+p. Best revolver I e ever shot, the grips play a big part.
I've got an air weight smith that's painful to shoot. It gets these grips next.
These grips are outstanding. I can shoot full-house 357 Mag loads out of my Kimber K6S DASA 3”, and I’m not feeling any pain in my hand. They allow the revolver to point extremely well too. Very happy with these grips! I purchased the Large size.
I am a retired police officer who started my career carrying revolvers. Perhaps it is a bit of nostalgia, and although I don’t always carry a revolver these days, when I do, it is usually my Kimber K6xs. I love that gun, but I never cared for the Houge grips that came on it. I switched to a set of "boot" grips, and although they concealed better, the gun was a handful with Remington HTP 158gr .38+P rounds, my preferred carry round in short-barrel .38s. My search for the perfect grip continued. I read some reviews on Recol Rider grips and decided to give them a try. The grip arrived today; installation was simple and took all of two minutes, then I went out back to my range and tried them out. I don’t know what type of compound they are made of, but they have a unique firm-yet-soft feel and absorbed the recoil of the +P rounds very well. The three-finger grip is secure, and the slight texturing is just right. The gun does not print under my shirt or snag, and I got a great purchase on the weapon when drawing from the holster. The grip puts the muzzle at the perfect angle for quick target acquisition. I couldn’t be happier with my Recoil Rider grip, and as a veteran myself, I was glad to support a small, American, veteran-owned business.
