hogue pistol grips? nylon or rubber
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have a question, I want to put hogue pistol grips on my 15-2 Dan wesson .357 mag, I like the monogrip by hogue, the nylon pistol grip are said to be able to be worked to fit a person's hand better, does anyone know if these type of pistol grips still absorb the recoil like the rubber pistol grips.

Posts: 47 Have you ever looked at Hogue Auction? You can pick up beautiful fancy wood pistol grip which Hogue lists as blems. For the life of me, I can't see the problem with 'em- even Hogue's seconds are nicer than others, such as Ahrends- firsts. And their prices run about 70% of retail...its making nice pistol grips affordable.

Posts: 20 The nylon ones are said to be easier to shape I think because they are nylon throughout and the end result will look uniform. The rubber ones are a nylon core with an out skin of rubber. You can shape the rubber ones, but if you file/sand too deep you will go through the rubber completely and get to the nylon core. The thinned sections of rubber may peel away from the nylon I suppose. I sanded most of the finger grooves off mine because they don't match my hands and went into the nylon.....it was no big deal to me as I am more interested in comfort, but they do look funky now. I will try to post a pic so you can see what it will/may look like.
