Hogue HandAll Beavertail Rubber Grip Sleeve for Glock 42, 43

After reading all the reviews and watching tutorials online showing how to install this thing, I almost didn’t buy it because it looked so intimidating, and my hand strength isn’t what it used to be. Well, I sprayed a little Windex on it, rubbed it around with a forefinger, got it started, seated, and centered nicely in about, oh, a minute. No cutting out shims from the package to help installation, no using a rag to help me manhandle it onto the grip, no boiling water to soften the rubber. Seriously, I watched videos of younger, bigger stronger guys really struggling to install this and using all those methods. Ha. Guess I’m a bad ass, lol. By the way, this product is really nicely made, really fits well and enhances the grip and feel. Looks absolutely factory too. Nice!

Grip fits great. Nice and snug and very comfortable. I didn't have any problem putting it on. Sure, its a tight fit (its supposed to be) but I didn't use any oil, tools or the plastic card helper that comes with it. All I did was start the front end over the grip so it got a good hold. Then pulled the rear (bever tail end) up, then the front, then the rear...etc working it this way until I got it on perfectly. I can see someone with a weak hand strength could struggle with that, but for me it wasn't that hard at all. All-in-all, love the grip!

It’s hard to install but it fits perfectly. You need the tightness for it to be firm enough when you shoot. Just be aware of the installation, follow the instructions and it will help you with the installation.

I've got several of these grips on different firearms and they are always excellent. I don't find them that difficult to get on without having to cut out the little shoe horn things from packaging or spraying window cleaner, but to each their own. Feels great adds a little thickness for a better grip. Love the texture highly recommend.

I own my G43 for a couple of years now and the problem is that this pistol is too small for my hands. As a result, I can be accurate with the first shot, but I have to readjust my grip for the second shot. So, I have this pistol which is made for carry purposes but I am not confident it will be effective in case I ever need to unholster it and that is not the feeling you want for an EDC pistol. I have the large backstrap on my G17 and that works very well for me (I even won some competitions with it) but it is a bit large to carry so recently I have been thinking of buying a G19 which I would be much more confident with and it is a pistol that many carry. Just in case I can save the money, I decided to get this grip sleeve as a last effort to make the G43 work for me and while I cannot call it "perfect", it helped a lot by adding a bit of thickness to the grip and I love the fingers separation because when I grip the pistol, my fingers go to the right place and feels like a more secure grip right away. So I took the pistol to the range and I immediately saw an improvement with the follow up shots. It is not perfect as the pistol is still too small and I have to curle my index finger too much to depress the trigger but the grip sleeve helped a lot. I wish it was a bit beefier on the backstrap but I will take what I can. So for now, I am keeping my money on the G19 idea. Now, installing it was a bit of a task at first because I thought "how hard can it be to stretch it around the pistol grip" but then I tried and I found out that it is not only hard but it is probably impossible. I read some reviews where people used hot water to soften it and even as a "lubricant" to have it slip on but the only time I am willing to get water on my pistol is if it is raining and I absolutely have to unholster it so I was not going to do that. Then I remembered my car trim removal tools and that worked like a charm. You can see the tool in the picture and it is a cheap tool you can pick up at any parts store or even here at Amazon (this one would do: Trim Removal Tool Kit - Pry Tools ) so I put the sleeve as far in on the backstrap as I could then inserted the trim tool on the side and worked it around the front side of the grip (all the way to the other side of the pistol). I did this move 3 or 4 times and the grip sleeve was installed. Then I used my thumb to move it back down so it is flash with the magazine opening and it was installed dry and very tight. If you own a G43, this grip sleeve is highly recommended. Especially if you lave large hands for that pistol.

I bought two of these; one for my Glock 43 and one for my S&W Shield 40. The same size fits both. I like how this enhances the grip on both guns. It added little bulk to the grip while providing a tacky, easy to retain grip to both of the weapons. My only complaint (and reason for not giving five stars) is this item is a real booger to install. With the help of a You Tube video, a lot of time with my wife's hair dyer, some soap, and a lot of swearing, I got these installed. It is doable, just not easy. But with the tight fit, neither one is going to slip or move. So I am saying, the results are well worth the time and aggravation. I would recommend this item.

hogueです。 誰がなんと言おうとhogueでした。 グリップに装着するときのキツさや、装着後のフィット感。 ラバーの質感、デザインのセンスの良さ。 文句のつけようはありません。 ショボいハンドガンもよく見えます。 しかもなんかこれ安いし。

ワンランク上がったスタイルフォルムになり大変満足してます。手に馴染む質感また、実銃にも採用されているボーグ製のグリップ購入し満足

はめるのに少し苦労しますが焦らず少しづつすれば大丈夫でした。裂けてしまう恐怖心なく出来ました。しっかりフィットしていい感じです。

ウマレックスのG42に取り付けました。 このタイプは取り付けに力が必要ですが、取り付けた後は全くズレも無く、しっかりとグリッピング出来るようになります。 安定して握れるようになるのは良いですね。 おすすめです！
