Super-RedHawk owners -grip question

[WebHobbit]

I'm still considering buying a Super-RedHawk .44 Magnum. I JUST ABOUT have the wife talked into it!



I have a couple of questions about the grip.

I once owned an SP101 and liked the factory grips except for the way the space just under the trigger gaurd is exposed. Couldn't stand that so I ended going the Hogue route. I notice the SRH has the same problem.

What I'm wondering is if changing the SRH's grips out from factory to Hogue added any distance to the trigger reach? With these stubby fingers I can't afford any extra trigger reach.

Any small handed shooters out there come up with a better grip for the SRH?

Lastly would someone like to post some decent pics of SRHs..especially with after-market stocks?

have a .44 SRH that i changed grips out to Hogue. if the reach is more/less, i have not noticed. would change them back and forth to be more specific, but, the changeout is not a simple one, so
pardon me if i do not. my hands are about average: size 9 glove.

the Hogue grips are more narrow. this could make up for the lack of long fingers. disclaimer: i like Hogue grips on most stuff. YMMV

I'm a Hogue fan too...atleast with open-back strap models on S&Ws. Since the SRH doesn't have a back-strap to keep open I wasn't sure how that would work!

It's good to know they are thinner though , thanks.

I have small hands and I find the stock grips very comfortable. I have handled the Pachmayer fingerless grip and it is similar in size to the stock, maybe that would fit you. They also make a finger groove model which is larger.HTH

The stock grips do fit my hand I just don't like the way they leave a bit of metal exposed under/behind the trigger gaurd. I like that part covered like the Hogues (and most other rubber stocks) do.
