the set of Hogue wraparound rubber ones are so old (20+ years) - they are getting kinda sticky - the rubber may be breaking down or something.
Any favorites? - I guess I prefer 'rubber' for the increased grip but not the stickiness these old ones are giving off...
thanks in advance -

Member I like my VZ's.
But if you're looking for rubber, Hogue is the way to go.

Member Spiegel's have been a standard for years. VZ obviously makes good stuff, too.

Agreed. Mr. Spiegel is the man for HP grips. I called him and told him what I would like and he nailed it. Easy transaction.

Member If you like the rubber and the Spegel's, you need to look for discontinued Uncle Mike's; rubber based on the Spegel's! Although I have the Navridex thin micarta panels for carry and BBQ purposes (Hogue cocobolo as well), I have a pair of the Uncle Mike's for my BHPs for range days.

Member I really like the factory mark III grips. It takes away some of the boxiness of the grip.

Looking for a set of those, too. Non-lanyard ring cut.

:^) I'm still on Craig Spege'ls waiting list.
I have always admired his work.
Member Uncle Mike's rubber panels, if you can find them.
