    Shield - Hogue beavertail grip concern

    I purchased a Hogue Handall beavertail grip sleeve. It feels pretty good in the hand because of a little more width and increases trigger finger distance. All well and good. I have medium-sized hands.

    My concern is that when I pick up my wife's Shield with Talon grip wraps, that my 'purchase' is always in the same place, where it belongs. When I pick up my Shield with the Hogue, sometimes I have to adjust my hand. It doesn't 'slide into place' easily like it should.

    I suppose this isn't much of an issue with a holster holding it at the same angle, I could train for that, but just grabbing it off a counter seems to introduce this variable. I'm considering going back to Talon grips.

    What do you think?

    I would take off the sleeve and go back to Talon grips or just stock grip. I’ve considered a sleeve, but it affects the draw, so one less variable if I dump it all together. Just my 0.02.

      I also have the hogue grip, and love it. I have not had any issues so far.

        I think that the rubber of the grip that goes against the hand webbing kinda grabs, doesn't slide easily into 'place'.

          I had the Hogue and liked it. Unfortunately it will not work with a Crimson Trace installed.
