Gripping the snub revolver

[HeadJunter]

A lot of people ask me about how to grip the snub revolver, so I wrote an article about it.

The proper grip for a small revolver is somewhat different than for an autoloading pistol. This is dictated by the different shape of the revolvers stocks and by the difference in mechanical operations between the revolver and autoloader.

With a revolver, the grip that works best for most people is known as the ‘thumbs down grip.’ A few shooters may need to modify it to best fit their hands.

Sorry - interested in reading it, but the site had so many popups that I gave up!

I shoot my revolvers thumbs down too. Keeps my support hand thumb away from the flame cutting of the front of the cylinder.
