Although others have tried to copy Hogue's shape in a two piece revolver grip, nothing compares with the features of a true Monogrip. Hogue pioneered the design concept and refined the functional shape for Monogrip. And of course all revolver grips are fully relieved for speedloaders. Generous recoil shoulder helps spread impact from heavy magnum loads. Palm swells are ambidextrous, allowing equal comfort and control for either right or left handed shooters. This low bore line reduces muzzle rise in recoil and materially aids rapid-fire recovery time, especially when using a two-hand hold. Monogrip's design allows a high handhold on the backstrap which effectively lowers the bore line. MaSingle action revolvers have been making a steady comeback from the brink of extinction for just over fifty years now, and the resurgence shows no sign of letting up. The famed Hogue orthopedic handshape, comfortable and secure, is a smooth ergonomic design that positions the hand consistently every time. Shooters are on target faster and more consistently with a grip designed to point naturally. Monogrips not only dress up a gun, they also are designed to provide optimal pointing characteristics. Since it is a fact that gun frame dimensions do vary slightly, Monogrips, by virtue of their unique mounting system compensate for varying frame tolerances. This tolerance varies, which on a two-piece grip can lead to loose shifting panels. Obsolete two-piece revolver grips that attach from the side must rely on the frame to stockpin tolerance to maintain a secure fit. Because the mounting force is from the bottom, they do not shoot loose. Attached in seconds, the stirrup solidly secures the grip to the frame. The stirrup is the key component in the system that adapts the grip to the gun handle. This single piece grip slides on revolver frames from the bottom, requiring no modifications of the firearm.Ī patented steel "stirrup" device clips over the existing stockpin or bottom strap of the frame. Trademarked Monogrip, the one-piece design eliminates the short- comings of traditional two-piece grips. The answer.a one-piece grip that mounts from the bottom. After 10 years of custom making conventional two piece grips, Guy, a perfectionist, was never satisfied with the way two-piece revolver grips mount and fit, even when custom made.
