What's the verdict on the Hogue Handall or Pachmayr Grip Glove for pocket holster use?
I carry a 1st Gen LCP a good bit (nearly every day) and am honestly impressed with the accuracy and shootability at reasonable ranges. For a dinky little pocket gun, it's not too hard to keep a magazine full of shots on a sheet of typing paper at 40 feet. The LCP is great for those instances where it's tough to conceal something much bigger, but it could use a little help with regards to how it feels in the hand. Do you guys use any of the rubberized add-on grips?
I've got an old LCP I carried for ages as a LE backup gun. My wife always liked it but found it painful to shoot. A Hogue Handall fixed that for her, but I can't shoot it nearly as well with the Handall on it. They do make the gun more comfortable to shoot.

Mine has a Pachmayr, makes it just a bit easier to hold on to. Cheap enough to try and throw away if you hate it.

I use the Hogue Handall on Mine and my wife has the Handall on hers and my 83 year old Mom has them on hers as well. Cuts down on the felt recoil and allows a more secure hold on the Pistol. We all have Ruger 7 round magazines in the pistols.
The 2 Ladies carry in their purse and I carry in the Breast Pocket of my shirt.
