The Houge boot grip does feel great in the hand and makes the J-frame even more controllable than it already is. However, IMO the added length and width of the Houges takes away from the most attractive feature of the J-frame, conceal-ability. The J-frame is just barely small enough for the pocket but perfect on a belt. For me, with the Houges, pocket carry is no longer an option and belt carry isn't as easy. After all, the hardest part of a gun to conceal is the grip.
The uncle mike's boot grips are great. They are perfect for concealment and fill the hand nicely. What type of grips were on your revolver before you changed them out?
