I just got some new Hogue G10 Piranha grips for my 239, and this is how they fit along the back. Is this normal?

Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice.

We had a guy from Hogue on the forum didn't we? Is he still around?

This should be in the Pistols section. And Ken of Hogue will be along to help you out. I suspect Ken does not frequent the Lounge, if at all. And yes, that's not normal.

...and post some pics of that gun with the new grips from the side. I have a 239 and would love to see it with the G10's.

Ive put those same grips on a 239, 229, and 225A1 and all fit tightly. Most comfortable usable grips I've found. Next will be the 226.

Thanks everyone. I called Hogue, and they're looking into it.

Definitely not right for Hogues. Something is up. Interested in what Ken or someone else from Hogue says.

Ken's an excellent help here, I'm sure your issue will be taken care of.

No, Hogue G10's are amazing and that is not the norm, but I am sure they will make it right. You have to remember there are variances in any product, I could be the gun's frame or the grips or stacking tolerances from both.

Hi Ken,

I did indeed send them to Hogue last week. The girl I am working with confirmed they are correct, and fit correctly on three different pistols. She is sending me another pair tomorrow. If those don't work....well....I'm not sure what to do after that.

Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice.

I will put my eyes on them now.

Ken,

Thanks so much for following up on this. I really appreciate it. I'm looking forward to getting the new set of grips.
