S&W 610 smaller grip?

[kayak-man]

Hey guys, long time no see,

i just got my hands on a S&W 610, and I find the stock rubber grips to be too big for me, I’m really having to strain to reach the trigger (at work the medical gloves I use are size M)

I’m looking at the VZ grips, but it’s hard for me to get a feel for the size just looking at the website. Does anyone have any recommendations on grips to make an N frame a little more shootable for my slightly smaller hands? I did a quick search here but my Google fu was weak.

I would look at Altamont classic panels perhaps. Their combat grip might also work for you.

Maybe a set of Classic Panels and a BK grip adapter (think Tyler tee grip only polymer)

I have classic panels with a Bk adapter on my K frame model 10. The N frame is a little larger but it may work for you.

Which stock rubber grips? Got a pic to share? S&W has shipped with several different rubber grips depending on the era. My 610 came with a rubber grips made by Pachmeyr but I switch to the Hogue over molded round but grip. The Hogue does not cover the back strap so your reach is is shorter front to back than the Pachmeyr that does cover the backstrap.

These are same grips that I currently have. They aren’t the small rubber two parties ones that I remember my JFrame having, they cover the back strap completely. I feel like almost anything is going to be smaller, but i wanted to get a second opinion before I pulled the trigger

edit to add: I didn’t see the part about different eras at first. If it helps, it’s a brand new gun that bought a month ago

Update:

To the future forum member or Google searcher that had this same problem,

i rolled the dice on the VZ grips Tactical Diamond N Frame round bottom.

Accessing the trigger and cylinder release (hogue extended short) is significantly easier. Almost feels like a completely different gun.

texturing is agressive enough that sweaty palms don’t seem to be a major issue, but it’s not so sharp that it makes shooting unpleasant. Finger grooves are surprisingly comfortable. Initially it felt like I had a less effective grip, and I’ll need significantly more live fire to confirm, but at this time it seems like this is a dramatic improvement and the way to go.
