A lanyard ring can be used as an attachment point for a lanyard. The other end/loop of the lanyard can be attached to a belt, etc., or a loop passed around one's neck. If dropped, then the object (firearm in this case) can be easily retrieved. As an example, some (like me) wish to carry while boating and want to prevent permanent loss into deep water. Or prevent loss off a steep hiking trail drop-off.
One warning to heed: either use a lanyard (cord) which has a breaking strength less than one's weight (or thereabouts) or always carry a knife at the ready. We wouldn't want to be dragged under by a fouled lanyard, in which case the gun is worth less than a life.

I just ordered 2 each from Hogue. The nice lady there said they had lots of them in stock. ($2.50 each and $2.75 shipping for all 4)

gramps said:I like it, so I checked out my 4 inch Redhawk with hogue bantam grips. It looks different. The grips don't cover the metal, there is no hole to screw into and the serial number is there. Rats.

gramps,
All is not lost. You don't have to have Hogue grips to use the Hogue Screw Ring.
Order the Hogue grip stirrup too. With extended wood or rubber grips, you can mount the screw ring similar to this but with a round hole in the bottom of the grips:
Hondo44,
Never thought of that, it is a good idea. Most of mine have Hogue's, so I am OK, but I will remember this for future though.

Thanks for the suggestion of the lanyard rings. In Missouri as of this year you can use both , a rifle and pistol (at the same time) for hunting deer. I have bought both a Redhawk and Super RedHawk in 44mag for this fall deer season. I also installed lanyard rings on both per suggestions of this post. Need help know selecting the lanyard intself! I have no idea what to look for, type of material, length, best manufacture etc.
Midway has a few options, from about 10 to 18 bucks.

I hope they still make them I just got a TOKLAT and a S&W V-Comp 44 mag.I will call Monday
It's not hard to D&T the bottom of a revolver grip frame.
After almost losing a handgun I started putting lanyard rings on all of the handguns possible.
If you look at companies like Brownells you'll find them in different sizes.

Here's a picture of my
sp101 and gp100 with the hogue lanyard screw. I really like them because it makes it really easy to take the grips off. I would like to have one on my redhawk as well but I like the bantam grips too much to change them.
