I have a Gemini customs 3" ruger sp101 that I have had a little trouble finding stocks for that I am completely satisfied with.
I know I am probably being nit picky about it, but with the money I have put into it thus far I want to find that grip that fits me perfectly.
I had tried the badgers, trigger reach was too short.
Tried hogue’s and found trigger reach was good, finger grooves left something to be desired.
I sanded the finger grooves off, comfortable to hold now, but gun rides up under recoil a bit much for my liking, due in part to the slight taper towards the bottom that the smooth hogues have.
After that, I contact hogue to see if they could help me, which to my surprise they said they could make me a grip that fit my needs, but I’m now left trying to decide which option to go with.
Essentially I have 2 options, I can get a k frame roper/hideout grip made, where the grip is smooth, but the base is wider to aid me in controlling the gun better under recoil, or I can send them a tracing of my hand and they can make me a grip that has the correct spacing I need on the finger grooves.
Thoughts?
