Review: Good product, fussy installation. - These grips are a good value and a noticeable improvement over the skinny, hard plastic grips that S&W puts on them at the factory. As noted in many comments, the installation can the tricky. For me the most difficult part was driving out the factory grip pin. This one did not want to leave home and took some pretty stout whacks with a heavy steel hammer and a 3/32 Tekton pin punch before surrendering. A shot of Remington DriLube spray helped it along. Then there is the fussy bit of prying out the little plastic nibs that are in there so that the grips can also be used on another J-frame model. Forcing the grips onto the frame is a bit of struggle and requires some hand strength. The end cap went on easily for me, engaging the new grip pin. Nothing about the process is highly difficult, but if you have no relevant experience you may want to seek help. I am rating the grips five stars for comfort, functioning, and affordability. I don’t think Hogue could do much to make installation easier, being limited by the original design.
Review: Yes, It Tames Recoil!! - 60020, Installed on S&W 642-2. The OEM grips gave a two-finger hold, left backstrap exposed, and didn't come far enough up to cover the "hump" at top of grip--and that hump really smacked my palm, between thumb and index finger. This grip gives three-finger hold, covers the backstrap with rubber, AND goes all the way up to top edge of the frame hump, with an extra insert to absorb shock. It spreads and softens the felt recoil. Tula 130 FMJ (not listed as +P, but feels more like .357--a lot hotter than Remington .38 125 JHP +P), awful with OEM grip, is literally comfortable with this Hogue. Installation was not difficult. Read instructions and look for 'track' in grip, that the OEM cross pin travels in. On the 652-2, the original cross pin was used. For other models, Hogue provides a replacement to swap it out. There's also a plastic filler strip. I left it out, and grip fits solid with no looseness or wiggle. Pressing the plastic butt cap into position was easy, the instructions were good on that. I may end up shooting this little fella more, now that it's no longer a painful ordeal.

## Features

- COMPATIBILITY: This grip is precision-engineered for an extensive range of S&W J-Frame Round Butt models, including the M&P Bodyguard 1.0 38, 38, 49, 317, 331, 337, 351PD, 360, 431PD, 437, 438, 631, 637, 638, 649, and 650; certain Centennial frames (032, 042, 332, 340, 342, 432PD, 442, 632, 640, 642, 940) and the Round Butt versions of models 30, 32, 33, 34, 36, 37, 43, 50, 51, 60, 63, and 651, as well as early I-Frame models.
- FITMENT WARNING: This grip will NOT fit the Bodyguard 2.0 or S&W Model 40 or 42 due to their unique grip safety and frame dimensions, nor will it fit any Charter Arms revolvers (such as the Undercover or Pit Bull), or semi-automatic "Chief Special" models.
- Round Butt vs. Square Butt Verification: To ensure the correct fit for your S&W J-Frame, measure the flat surface on the very bottom of the grip frame (where the serial number is typically located); a Round Butt will measure approximately 1" in length, while a Square Butt will measure over 1 1/4", requiring a different grip style.
- Enhanced Shooter Comfort: This one-piece Monogrip features an ergonomic design with a large, closed backstrap and bottomstrap that promotes a natural grip for superior control and reduced fatigue, while the specialized construction provides a seamless, high-comfort fit that maximizes recoil absorption.
- Durable OverMolded Construction: Made from premium rubber for long-lasting performance.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect Upgrade for the S&W Bodyguard 38
*by S***. on October 17, 2023*

I always felt that the grip on the S&W Bodyguard 38 was too small. It's not long enough and the handle is quite narrow. It never felt very secure in my hand. Enter this Hogue Grip. I watched a few videos on youtube on how to install it. I had it installed in under 15 minutes. It was easy to do and makes a huge difference. Now the grip is wider and a bit longer so it fits comfortably in my hand. Highly recommend. A couple of installation tips: 1. Cut two rectangles from the plastic that the grip ships in and use those instead of business cards to slide between the frame and grip when you are sliding on the grip. 2. Use one of those 4 way screwdrivers, with the bit removed, to open up the end of the grip instead of using a shell casing as recommended in the directions. The screwdriver handle gives you plenty of leverage to open up the grip cap so it can easily pop on over the installed screw thing in the handle.
