Why
buy an inferior two piece revolver imitation when you can
get the real thing?
Monogrip
one-piece revolver stocks were designed and patented by Guy
Hogue, a retired L.A.P.D. shooting instructor and armorer.
Guy, a perfectionist, was never satisfied with the way two-piece
revolver grips mount and fit, even when custom made. The
answer...a one-piece grip that mounts from the bottom. Trademarked
Monogrip, the one-piece design eliminates the short- comings
of traditional two-piece grips. This single piece grip slides
on revolver frames from the bottom, requiring no modifications
of the firearm.
A
patented steel "stirrup" device clips over the existing
stockpin or bottom strap of the frame. The stirrup is the key
component in the system that adapts the grip to the gun handle.
Attached in seconds, the stirrup solidly secures the grip to
the frame. Because the mounting force is from the bottom, they
do not shoot loose. Obsolete two-piece revolver grips that attach
from the side must rely on the frame to stockpin tolerance to
maintain a secure fit. This tolerance varies, which on a two-piece
grip can lead to loose shifting panels.
Since it
is a fact that gun frame dimensions do vary slightly, Monogrips,
by virtue of their unique mounting system compensate for varying
frame tolerances. This assures a secure, comfortable grip. Monogrips
not only dress up a gun, they also are designed to provide optimal
pointing characteristics. Shooters are on target faster and
more consistently with a grip designed to point naturally. The
famed Hogue orthopedic handshape, comfortable and secure, is
a smooth ergonomic design that positions the hand consistently
every time. Monogrip's design allows a high handhold on the
backstrap which effectively lowers the bore line. This low bore
line reduces muzzle rise in recoil and materially aids rapid-
fire recovery time, especially when using a two-hand hold. Palm
swells are ambidextrous, allowing equal comfort and control
for either right or left handed shooters. Generous recoil shoulder
helps spread impact from heavy magnum loads. And of course all
revolver grips are fully relieved for speedloaders.
Hogue
pioneered the design concept and refined the functional shape
for Monogrip. There is only one original. Although others have
tried to copy Hogue's shape in a two piece revolver grip, nothing
compares with the features of a true Monogrip.
