Section 8: Handguns Subject: S&W 4506-1 Msg# 872748

I do prefer my well worn Hogues on the old 4506-1, but have the Delrin one piece grip on the newer gun. I much prefer the factory grip with the straight backstrap over the "recurve" version due to my smaller hands.*
*I still say I do not have "small" hands. I wear size "large" gloves -- no mediums will fit. But most things are made in China now, so I probably am a "medium sized" person. In any case, I have "artist" hands according to many women , so I won't complain! |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: That really is a big beautiful pistol. In my opinion, Smith & Wesson got it right when they built the 4506-1. I own mine thanks to your direct influence! Question for you. Do you prefer the Hogues to the original nylon (Delrin?) stocks that came on the gun? Were Hogues dept. issue for you folks? I have never tried Hogues on mine, and always though they might make the pistol a bit too large for my hands. |
