    Default j-frame question

    Does anyone have any recommendations for a set of grips that won't interfere with a speed loader? I have a 60-15 .357 with the factory grips, they contact the speedloader (hks) and make it difficult to reload in a timely fashion.
    I have relatively small hands and like the way the factory grips feel.

    Did you try Hogue?

    I've looked at quite a few, the Houge look huge compared to the factory grip, tough to tell if they will clear the speedloader.
    Maybe I should be looking for a different speedloader.

    Speed strips are another alternative~~lie flat in the pocket and no special grips needed

    Google: Gripsforguns.com...You may be able to modify the grip you are using so you will have full clearance. If done properly, it will not affect the function or look of the grip. Well, it will change the look a little, but would not look bad.

    Take a look at speed strips. I like these much better than a speed loader. I can carry three in my pocket. They lay flat. You can get pretty fast with them with a little pratice.

    Good Luck!

    Thanks for all the repsponses, I'm gonna try to pick up some speed strips. I may even order the Hogue grips as they are cheap enough.
    I'll let ya'll know how it turns out.
