I used this grip on a S&W 5906 to replace my factory grip which had developed a crack. I was surprised that this item was available for purchase on Amazon. Merchandise was promptly shipped and in excellent condition when received. Installation was easy enough, but did require a minor modification to achieve an acceptable fit. I did not give the grip five stars because of the required modification as well as a small gap that formed between the pistol's frame and the grip at the upper end which I was unable to correct. The grip is, however, a good replacement for the factory grip. I would buy it again.

After a lot of searching and being told by many that you could not get Hogue soft rubber grips to fit the S&W model 5904 (not for sure why people thought that) I finally found them here at Amazon. As you can imagine I was some what skeptical if they would be the correct ones. After getting them not only where they the right ones but they fit and look awesome. I also heard that they were hard to put on and that is some what true, not the hardest thing I have ever done with a gun but it does take some time. However this is because of S&W setup not Hogues grips. I love the feel of them and the price was awesome.

I highly recommend these to anyone looking to replace the plastic handles. I will have to say that I am partial to the Hogue grips to anyone who is interested in a nice feeling grip.

I bought these grips because my stock ones were worn and cracking. I have not had the chance to shoot with the new grips yet, but they are very comfortable and seem to improve stability during general handling. They only knock i have is that they are a little bulky, so concealment is partially compromised. Luckily my hands are big enough that it doesn't affect my reach.

In short, I would recommend these grips if you have medium to large hands.

the grips where good, looks just like in the picture, the price was the best thing. the package got here within a week.

I had purchased a used S&W 5906. Though the gun was in decent shape, the grips were not. I found these Hogue grips on Amazon and figured I'd give them a try.

The installation was basic: Remove two screws on either side of the old grips, gently pry up the old grips, remove the mainspring and retainer and pin. You may want to clean the gun at this point. Next, insert the new mainspring retainer and tap the mainspring pin into place. It's important that the pin is evenly spaced on both sides of the frame otherwise the grip will not seat properly. Once that's done, insert the new grips and and new screws.

I am very pleased with the fit of the new grips. There are no gaps and it appears to be one solid piece once everything is put back together. The feel is slightly tacky with good texture. The SW5906 has a rather large grip, however, and if you have smaller hands it may push it just over the edge of comfort.

No downsides really. These are basic black plastic grips. They won't win beauty contests but are inexpensive and quite functional.

these are some nicee grips and are alot more grippier then the standard 3rd gen plastic grips for smiths.
only thing i didnt like was is was hard to put the little plastic peice on and the grip pannels didnt line up 100% of the way but it was definetly good enough to still keep.
