Nice Grip Upgrade for the LCP

[mike7mm08]

I carry my LCP daily. Like it but the grip is a bit thin and recoil is on the verge of uncomfortable. The new Hogue Handall hybrid helps a lot. It is specific to the LCP. Comes with a longer pin to replace the pin in the grip frame at the rear of the slide. You also pop off the rounded plastic piece behind the magazine well. Grip is held in place by the pin and fits into the hole you have after removing the piece behind the mag well. Fits perfect goes on easy took about three minutes to install. Available fro standard as well as Crimson trace equipped LCPs. Grip feels way better still thin enough for pocket carry. Have not shot it yet but I am sure recoil will be more managable.

Nice, but I used a piece of bicycle tire inner tube for the same results.

This is considerable thicker than a inner tube especially through the backstrap. Inner tube enhances the grip but does little to reduce recoil or increase the thickness of the grip.

In the two years that I have owned my LCP, I have tried several sleeves/grips/inner tubes on it. This includes several Pachmayr and Hogue models. The newest grip from Hogue is the best design and fit that I have seen for LCP. It is a quick and easy install, and feels GREAT !!!

YMMV.

I need to get one of these. This is exactly what I've been looking for.

Looks good! Where did you buy it?

 

[mike7mm08]

I got it direct from Hogue. Could not find it anywhere else. Only complaint is Hogue claims they charge actual shipping. Yet I get billed 8.83 for it shipped in a 5.15 flat rate box. Oh well even with shipping it was under 20 bucks for a great improvement.

Shot it today. WOW what a difference. Still muzzle flip but no recoil. Now to do something about the useless front sight. I got the laser but in bright light it don't do me any good.

I need to try one of them in my hand, I havent bought and LCP yet since they feel too small in my hand, that looks like it will fit a lot better. Thanks for the pics.

I tried them in my picture you might be able to makeout the dots on the rear sight. I cannot get a dot to stay on the front sight. I carry daily in a pocket holster and it must move around enough to rub the front sight. I have replaced it three or four times and gave up. I got some tape for fishing lures I am going to try next. Maybe a strip the whole length of the front sight.
