Quick Tip: How To Install a Hogue Monogrip

  • čas přidán 26. 08. 2019
  • For years, the URL for Hogue's website has been GetGrip.com - and that describes exactly what their Monogrip® does for you. This one-piece, molded rubber grip gives you a comfortable super-secure hold on your revolver for excellent control and minimal battering of the hand due to recoil. The ergonomic Monogrip® is a drop-in replacement for the pretty but sometimes less than comfortable factory grips. Skeptical about the "drop in" part? Don't be. Brownells Firearm Support Technician Caleb Savant walks us through the installation and demonstrates how easy it is to "Go Mono" for a better grip on that Smith & Wesson (or other) revolver. J-frame? K-frame? N-frame? Forget the frame-size alphabet soup because, as Caleb says, Monogrip® installation is the same for all of 'em. Bonus Tip: A Brownells Magna-Tip® 210-6 bit fits S&W grip screws juuust right.

    Super tip from Hogue support if for some reason the screwhole on the stirrup/bracket doesn’t align with the hole on the grip (which had never happened to me before but did installing a Hogue monogrip on my N-Frame Model 627): get a typical, conventional foam earplug (mine were blue so very visible). Cut the earplug in half and gently, using a probe or small punch, insert the piece of foam between the stirrup/bracket and the frame. Don’t worry that it’s obstucting the hole from underneath, the screw will push right into it. Slide the grip on to where it is fitted perfectly in place. Using a flashlight, look through the hole and see where the earplug is showing through the screw hole (this is where a brightly colored one comes in handy). Using the punch (and careful not to damage the threads), gently guide the stirrup/bracket hole in alighment with the hole on the monogrip. In my case, when shining the flashlight in, all I could see was blue when I had done this correctly...that was how I knew the holes were aligned. Screw locked in first try. Shout out to Teresa in Hogue customer service for this tip.

      Another way, which I just did, is to first put the screw in the bottom hole before you slide the grip up. When you slide the grip up, just before it reaches all the way to the top, you'll feel resistance against the screw. At this point just start screwing it in, and as you do, it will move the grip up the rest of the way and into place as you tighten it. I tried over and over and it never aligned, then I tried it that way and it worked perfect the first time. I didn't even need an earplug or anything extra.

    Its nice that brownells is reaching out to a younger crowd. That teen is going to grow up to be a fine gunsmith. He may not be old enough to own a handgun yet, but when he is, hes going to have a nice revolver.

    The monogrips on the Hogue website are now solid nylon, not rubber. Also, I couldn't find them on your website. Out of production in rubber?

    How about doing a video on replacing the grip on a Taurus Model 66.It doesn't have the screw at the bottom.

    • @18wheeler77
      @18wheeler77 Před 4 lety

      garageguy879 the hogue grip will be compatible. I installed one on my Taurus 85 and it comes with a little adapter clip and a roll pin that will allow you to use the screw on the bottom.

    Hey dude, I got a question. I already installed my hogue on a pistol, but how long do they last, and when should I replace it.?

  • @carbonfibercrypto2919
    @carbonfibercrypto2919 Před 2 lety

    Now this is how it should be designed. I have a Hogue grip that they actually sell for $30 WITHOUT a retaining screw. So, you just have to hope and pray that you can slide some cheap plastic on either side of a roll pin without damaging the cheap plastic holes inside of the cheap plastic butt cap. Then, if they don't align properly, good luck removing the cheap plastic butt cap without damaging the cheap plastic. You can try to repeat the process, but by the time the grip is installed, you will have damaged your firearm, the table, and the cheap plastic grip.
    I would prefer a retaining screw at the bottom.
