HANDALL BEAVERTAIL GRIP SLEEVES Reviews & Ratings

The new grip sleeves are designed to fit specific polymer pistols now on the market. The Beavertail Grip Sleeve line has been engineered with models for precision fits on specific firearms. The initial offerings in this series has sleeves designed for perfect fits on three sizes of polymer firearms. While each sleeve has been created for a precise fit on specific polymer framed firearms, they also alternatively fit many other similarly sized firearms with a fully functional and aesthetic fit. The Beavertail Grip Sleeves are installed by slipping them over the frame of the firearm until seated into perfect position. Once installed, the HandALL sleeve provides a single finger groove for instinctive handling of the firearm. The finger groove leads into a gentle palm swell that has been carefully designed to fit naturally in the hand. The beavertail built into the grip sleeve rises high along the backstrap of the frame giving full rubber contact with the hand allowing a higher hand-placement on the grip without the fear of the slide biting the skin between the thumb and the trigger finger. In addition to protection and comfort, the beavertail also cushions the hand during recoil. The HandALL is built from a long-lasting durable thermoplastic elastomer compound. This rubber ages very gracefully and keeps a firm, tacky feel throughout the life of the grip. It will not harden, split or crack with age or usage. The grip sleeve is textured with Hogue’s familiar Cobblestone™ texture, a series of small circular bumps that provide an efficient non-slip, non-irritating grip on the rubber.

Good grips but hard to install

Now that I have them on, they are nice. This was one of the hardest things to install on a Glock 26. It took several attempts and the first grip ripped.

Good grip, but difficult to install

Daddy taught me to discard the instructions as the first step in any assembly. The instructions with this item suggest cutting "shoehorns" from the plastic packaging, which only serves to make in non-returnable, and which provided me no aid. I am also not convinced that the windex (TM) used as lubricant, per instructions, was any help. Only three things made installation possible: soaking the grip sleeve in hot water, cussin', and putting a finger inside the grip sleeve in place of the "shoehorns." Now that it is installed, I like the grip sleeve, as it provides a better fit for my larger hands. The device seems to be well made, fits well, stays where it is put, and looks as if it should last quite awhile. As for the instructions, I suggest hangin' 'em on the nail inside the privy.
