vaquero rubber grips

[gruesomenewsom]

I'm looking for rubber grips for my vaquero, preferably with a covered backstrap. I saw pachmayrs but they seemed to be the only one, the hogue monogrip still has the open strap. suggestions?

Rubbers on a Vaquero??? Isn't that illegal in some areas. Athe very least - blasphomy.

Only ones that I can think of are the Pachmayers.

i have a friend who works for lyman (which owns pachmayr) and when he recommended their grips I thought the same thing, BLASPHEMY! But he explained to me that the gun is really a shooter and that since i dont do any cowboy-action style stuff with it I might as well make it comfortable. I realized he had a good point.

I could never be comfortable with rubbers on my Vaqueros. I shoot mine with 44 mags all the time. I feel slightly ill.....

I used the Pachmayr grip on my Blackhawk .45 for a while but the guys over at Ruger forum shamed me into taking it off and learning how to shoot it with the regular grips. I do use a thin glove when shooting my .44 for more than a few cylinders of full power ammo. What it really boils down to though, it's your gun. Put on it whatever is most comfortable to you and allows you to shoot better!!
