Got the schedule set up and the pieces in place!!
This weekend we will look at the differences between Hogue Monogrips and Hogue Tamer Grips . . .
They resemble each other but they are quite a bit different from each other – and we will shoot both and look at them side by side . . .
Yes I am teasing you!!

When I received my TRIPLE-O Knife from Bob at LEO COMBAT ( my review of the TRIPLE-O knife is here ) he threw in a package of these – a neat idea to “snag proof” the hammer on a S&W 637 – the S&W 637 is great as it is a true DA/SA revolver – you can simply pull the trigger and it will perform a “double” action – rotate the cylinder AND bring the hammer back to sear break thus firing the revolver – as well as being able to bring the hammer back manually – rotating the cylinder and bringing to hammer back to rear lock – then pulling the trigger gives you a “single” action – hammer drop/firing the revolver . . .
The S&W 637 is capable of quite decent single action accuracy – however the hammer snagging on clothing or body parts while attempting to extricate from your pocket / under pants / or wherever you might stash it limits it being used by a lot of folks – they simply buy and carry a S&W 642 ( internal hammer ) and don’t worry about hammer snag . . .
How to test drive this?? I dug out the S&W 637 and a pocket holster for it – loaded it – slipped the shroud on it – and put it in my pocket . . . I tried dry firing it multiple times and it “pops” right off of the hammer just like in the video – so I will carry it in my pocket for a couple of weeks and see if it comes off in normal use – I will not do any pics – What ?? Stick my bore scope down my pocket ??
Been in my pocket all day and hasn’t come off yet – ( and yes I have my S&W 642 in my other pocket ) so I will get back to you folks in a week or so and let you know how it works . . .

I really like the Herrett’s grips – yes I know – “stocks” – OK??? – that were on the S&W 36-1 – good looking – but not really practical . . .
I finally found a set of Pachmayr’s for the little darling – I needed grips for a square butt not a round butt – they finally came back in stock – I ordered a set and here we are – and again nothing against the Herrett’s but they just don’t fit me as good as the Pachmayr’s and the little dear is still being used regularly as a “working” revolver – I really don’t want to scratch up a set of grips that are vintage – and worth more than the revolver . . .
Hanging out with it’s big brother – J Fame on top – K Frame on the bottom , , ,
The Herrett’s are good lookers . . .
But practicality wins out as the little darling is still pulling it’s weight – no hanging out in the vault drinking beer – playing poker – and smoking cigars for a living . . . All y’all think I can’t smell the cigar smoke – really?? And I do notice the beer missing – and if you would pay more attention y’all would realize the 380’s are table talking / bottom of the deck dealing cheaters – I will never again set in on a game with them – but what do I know? – just saying . . .
