Product Description
"Zero-compromise" concealed carry grips for the Ruger LCR and LCRx line. Before, wheelgun folks had to choose between shooting comfort (rubber grips) or carry comfort (wood or G10 grips). Recoil Rider revolver grips provide both, featuring the recoil absorption of rubber grips with the snag-free comfort of wooden grips. Plus, they reduce the weight for easier carry. Recoil Rider grips for the LCR cover the backstrap to optimize trigger reach, and feature an intuitive grip angle for a natural point-of-aim. If you're carrying your revolver AIWB or in the pocket, these utilitarian grips will provide a superior shooting and CCW experience.
What is the difference between the CCW Grip and the Boot Grip?
Features
- Absorb recoil: Recoil Rider revolver grips cover the backstrap with a rubbery material that mitigates shock. The hotter the ammo, the greater the reduction in recoil.
- Snag-free: Unlike traditional rubber grips, Recoil Rider revolver grips won't snag your clothing or rub against your skin when carrying AIWB or in the pocket.
- Low-Profile: Conceals like boot grips but provides a three-finger grip with a spot for your pinky.
- Optimized trigger reach: Backstrap thickness provides a natural and comfortable trigger finger placement.
- Lighter weight: Reduce the weight by almost an ounce compared to traditional grips, offering the easiest CCW experience available.
- Natural point-of-aim.
Compatibility
- Compatible with all Ruger LCR and the hammered LCRx revolvers, including the 3" barrel variants, and all calibers.
- Includes spare screw to enable full compatibility for the 3" LCRx.
- Speedloader Clearance: Tested compatible with the HKS 36A Speedloader.

- Large Fit: Best for larger hands (At or above chart measurements). Thicker backstrap improves recoil reduction.

Assembly
Due to the flexible nature of the grip material, it is advised to apply a thin strip of painter's or duct tape during installation to secure the hammer pin block from vibration-induced movement during shooting.

I got the standard size Recoil Rider CCW grips for my S&W J-Frame and loved them, so I just bought the Large size CCW grips for my Ruger LCR in .357. They are about the same size as the two-finger rubber grips that came with the LCR, but they allow you to get a third finger on the grip and control the muzzle flip much better.
They are very soft, even softer than the standard size Recoil Rider grips on my J-Frame. These grips completely eliminate any snap or discomfort associated with shooting .38 Special through my LCR. I have not tried .357 yet, but I can shoot .38 Special +P all day with these grips.
These grips combine a smooth snag-free surface and excellent ergonomics with shooting comfort and better recoil control. I literally can shoot my small revolvers better, faster and with more accuracy when using Recoil Riders. If you own a revolver that Recoil Rider makes grips for, buy them! You will not regret it.
Just make sure to follow the instructions in the provided videos to make installation easier. In the case of the LCR, the grip screw will bottom out, so stop tightening when the video says to stop tightening!
Must have! changes draw stroke from AIWB so your hand grips the LCR (or J frame) with a solid whole handed grip.
I'm going to order two more. One for a Ruger LCR in 9mm & another for my 2nd LCT .38.
I also have two LCR's in .22 long rifle & an LCRX in .22 LR, but have to prioritize based on grip, draw, & recoil management. Great product if your a LCR/J Frame EDC person. I want to try the boot grip also. I do know the ability to grip from AIWB may change based on design. I shoot A LOT! I encourage to try these grips out. Enoguh ushion, yet not to sticky
After seeing these grips all over instagram for awhile I decided to give them a try on my 38 LCR. Recoil with plus p loads have always been stout on the super lightweight snubby with defense loads. These three finger grips help immensely, and still managed to keep the footprint tiny. These are excellent!
I recently switched out the stock Hogue grip on my Ruger LCRx (1.87" bbl .327 fed. mag) for the Recoil Rider grip (Large Grip - Charcoal). The Recoil Rider is only slightly larger than the Hogue but affords a three finger grip and allows for a much more secure draw from my holster. I can still easily conceal carry the Ruger as the Recoil Rider has no impact on concealability. I look forward to getting back over to the range with my Recoil Rider/Ruger set up!
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 .
