S&W Model 28 grips

[Zhillsauditor]

Hey all,

I picked up a S&W model 28 in 6" yesterday at a gun show, for a pretty reasonable price ($340 out the door). For some reason, I had it in my head that it was an L-frame gun. Anyway, although I am happy as a fat man that found an extra gallon of Blue Bell ice cream in the freezer about the quality and condition, the gun is a big boy and my hands are not the largest around.

It came with a set of Hogue rubber grips on it. I think they are pretty thin, but can anyone recommend a better N-frame grip for someone with smaller hands?

Standard Magnas with a Tyler T-Grip adapter.

FWIW I'm not sure of the current availability of T-Grips. Prices shot up late last year after the company seemingly stopped shipments early in the year and rumors circulated that they had closed up shop. The factory is now under new (or reconstituted?) ownership and the website says they are shipping T-Grips again, but I am not sure if this has been verified.

I'm very fond of Ahrends stocks. They're thinner than the S&W target grips, but thick enough to fill out the hand.

I have a S&W 28, and last year bought some Craig Spegel stocks for it. It took a while before I got them, but they sure fit my hands well.

So far I have put 2 sets of Jerry Miculeks grips on my S&W’s. One on a 21 and the other on a 24. They are remarkably comfortable and are very good at putting your index finger in the correct position on the trigger. I also don’t have very large hands and I like them.

The Pachmayer Presentation Grips are thinner, economically priced- and they don't look half bad. I have small hands and kinda long fingers- they are a pretty happy fix for me.

+1 on the Service/Magna grips and a Tyler T-Grip, but they will likely take a bit longer to get to your door.

I want to go to the OP's gunshow! That is a great price.
