Revo carry??

R9SCarry......thanks for the thoughts and the welcome. This is off topic in a Rohrbaugh forum, but what do you think of CT grips. To me and my aging eyes they are fantastic. I can draw and hit target multiple times before gun reaches eye level. I am slowly buying them for several other handguns and cannot say enough good things about them. I do have them on Kimber ultra carry and sig 229. They are good on those guns , but they are truly outstanding on j frame revolver. Anyone who carries j frame should try them, you wont be sorry.

I agree with the value of the Crimson Trace grips on a small revolver -- they are fantastic.  I don't have a set for my current j-frame, but I will have a set again soon.  It just gives you a lot more options.  Suddenly your fixed iron sight gun has "adjustable night sights" so to speak!

CT grips would be a natural for the Rohrbaugh if they can make them that small/thin.

Jim ..... there have been several threads over on THR about CT grips .... for the most part they are well spoken of.

Like you tho, and Duane .... I LOVE them!!  My first set went on the SP ... and I cannot speak highly enough of them.  I also have added them to a M629-6 and an M28-2 ... the latter I carry in winter at various times.

I still shoot as if ''irons only'' ... I won't change that habit as a primary method but .... as I am shooting, there is my red dot showing as well .. if I can see it and wish to use it.... which is sorta instinctive anyways I guess.

Last Saturday I was eating thru a box of 38 spl reloads .. for draw practice .... and despite cloudy/bright conditions .... I could still see the red dot on target ..... only 5 yards I admit.  I was finding tho that, as I drew and came up on target with irons (as well as almost ''point'' shooting) ... I did register the dot sufficient to get a confirmation of ''usefullness'' of the shot or shots.

Had it not been there, I'd not have been compromized one bit but - it was a ''plus'' ...... an adjunct, that made for better results.  I did 'draw and one' ..... 'draw and double-tap' ... and 'draw and all 5' ... all the time, that dot was just visible and I think aiding placement.

Ho do the CT grips effect perceived recoil in your S&W 629-6?

Mike - I find no obvious difference, when compared with std wood grips or the Hogues that were on originally.  I guess the CT plastic grips are just a tad ''harder'' and so do not seem to ''absorb'' recoil as much as perhaps the Hogues.  Minor point tho really for me.

With hot loads that gun is a tad punishing, eventually ... regardless of grips and certaining assessing the ''perceived'' recoil .. the only comment might be that the CT grips are a tad less comfortable with regard to the hand web .... too many rounds and you do know it!

Having said that - I consider they are still an excellent addition.
