Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns Grips for a 44mag

I just picked up a Ruger .44mag New Model Super Blackhawk
I have kinda big hands ,and the stock grips dont fit what would be a good grip for bear paws

If you don't care much what they look like, try the Pachmeyer Presentation grips. I have semi-large hands and they give me a good grip. They only cost about $25.

Dragoon style grips are larger than normal

I like those, but cannot tell if they are just wider than the factory grips, or do they extend down below the frame so you can fit all four fingers on them?

Who made them?

For the price of his grips I would check if he would make them to your specs.

The Hogue monogrip is kind of an eyesore compared to nice wood, but works well.

You might want to check Ebay for Herretts.

Agreed.
My Redhawk was NO fun to shoot, UNTIL I put Hgues on it!

Now? it's a pleasue. In fact I think I'll take it to the range this weekend.

well I do thnk the Hogue mite be the ticket for that part of the settin it up, now work up a good load

Here's another vote for Hogue Monogrips. Put 'em on my 7.5" Redhawk shortly after I got it. Much more comfy and controllable, (at least in my hands), than the wood grips Ruger put on it.

the only stcok grips I have ever liked on a ruger are the ones on my GP100 .357. One more thing I have to do on this Blackhawk is a triger kit and litein it up a bit

I did this to my Flattop and it has worked out great thus far.

Houge works for me also.

deflave I just took a look at that site I think ill give it a try tomoro and let you know what I think thanks NH Frank

To lighten the pull you only need to bend the two trigger spring "arms" upward a bit until the pull is where you want it. That way the spring is still fully intact and captured. That said, properly working the hammer hook depth is the way to a fine trigger.

My S&W M629 came with the Hogue mono grip.
They always worked great for me.

Thanks for the tip Tony sounds a lot better than just un hooking them

Another $0.02 cents worth for the Pachmeyer Presentation grips.

My best impressions from the Presentation grips is how have they place the bird-finger at a more consistent , proper position below be trigger guard.

Big mittens seem to find home better, as it works for me.

I also use the Pachmeyer Presentation grips on my Ruger Blackhawk 44 Mag.

I some one gave me a box of cast 240 grain bullets what would be a good load for them
