Anybody using this? How do you like it compared to the stock Hogue LCR grip?

I have one and it makes pocket carry a lot easier. It's smaller than the regular and has a different texture so it doesn't hang up on fabric.

Yup, changed out my original grips for the "boot grip". Didn't know at first if I would like them. A lot less to hold on to. But about 50 rounds of CCI 158gr. LSWCHP +P, and 10 Speer Gold Dot 135gr. +P Short Barrel later I got used to them. Makes my LCR even more concealable, and once I got used to them I can shoot it just as well.

That's two thumbs up, thanks. What I saw on youtube was also favorable.

Mine arrived at Ruger's place in Newport, NH today, and will undergo an inspection/evaluation. I'll shoot it with the stock Hogue grip when I have it again, and if I like it (I expect to) I'll get the Bantam grip for it.
