Hogue 18206 HandAll Beavertail Grip Sleeve Textured Purple Rubber for Glock 42, 43

The Hogue HandAll Beavertail Grip Sleeve for Glock 42/43 is a textured rubber grip cover engineered to improve comfort and control on compact, single-stack pistols. Unlike full-size frames, compact polymer pistols like the Glock 42 and 43 have fixed grips—you can't swap them out. The HandAll Beavertail Grip Sleeve solves that problem by wrapping around your existing grip with a purpose-built fit that feels like an upgrade, not an afterthought. The textured purple rubber delivers a secure, non-slip surface whether your hands are wet from rain, sweat at the range, or packed away in a hunting pack.

Designed with a beavertail profile, this grip sleeve extends protection upward to reduce slide bite and improve high-hand positioning—especially important on single-stack carry guns where your grip hand naturally rides higher on the frame. The textured surface is aggressive enough for a positive grip in dynamic situations but won't shred your hands during extended shooting sessions. Hogue engineered this sleeve for a precise fit on Glock 42 and 43 platforms, so it seats flush without gaps or shifting.

Whether you're carrying your 42 or 43 for self-defense, running drills at the range, or training for hunting scenarios, this grip sleeve makes a meaningful difference in how the gun feels in your hand. It's a simple, effective accessory that costs far less than replacing the gun and works with all holsters and aftermarket parts designed for the Glock 42/43 frame.
