Product Description

For the ultra-minimalist revolver user who conceal-carries in the pocket: Ultra-concealable boot grips for the Smith & Wesson J-Frame line, optimized for pocket-carry. Recoil Rider grips are the the lightest boot grips available for the J-Frame, plus they absorb recoil with a slim profile and a snag-free draw. They also improve the grip angle of your S&W J-Frame for a more natural point-of-aim. If you're carrying your revolver the pocket, these boot 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 when pocket-carrying.
  • Natural point-of-aim: Improved grip angle mitigates the J-Frame's "Point-Down" feeling which required bending the wrist at an unnatural angle.
  • Low-Profile: The slimmest and lightest boot grips ever made.
  • Optimized trigger reach: Backstrap thickness provides a more natural and comfortable trigger finger placement.
  • Lighter weight: Reduce the weight by over an ounce compared to traditional grips, offering the most lightweight boot grips ever made.

    Sizing Guide

    • Standard Fit: Best for small and medium-sized hands. (At or below chart measurements).
    • Large Fit: Best for larger hands (At or above chart measurements). Thicker backstrap improves recoil reduction.
    • Concealment Note: Both sizes are fully optimized for AIWB and pocket carry. Choosing Large only increases grip width and backstrap thickness - overall length remains the same.

    Assembly

    If you are having difficulty installing or removing the grip, I recommend heating the grips lightly and evenly with a hair dryer on low heat. This will make them more pliable and easier to install and remove. Do not use excessive or prolonged heat, as this could cause discoloration.
