The Hogue 60020 OverMolded Tamer grip is a purpose-built rubber grip for Smith & Wesson J-frame revolvers, including the Centennial round butt and Bodyguard models. If you carry a compact revolver for self-defense or backup, you know that recoil management and a secure grip matter in high-stress moments. This OverMolded design combines a soft rubber body with a stippled (cobblestone) surface texture to keep your hand planted when it counts, while finger grooves help you find a consistent purchase shot after shot.
The grip's real standout is what happens under the web of your hand: a Sorbothane recoil cushion that absorbs sharp impulse from defensive loads, taking the sting out of full-power ammunition without sacrificing control. The palm swell is gentle and natural, fitting a wide range of hand sizes. A relief cutout at the top lets you use a speedloader without fumbling, a practical detail that matters in dry practice and training.
Finished in black, this grip is equally at home on a duty revolver, a plainclothes carry gun, or a range workhorse. The material is durable and easy to clean, and the precision fit means no rattling or gaps. Whether you're running a J-frame for concealed carry or keeping one in the nightstand, the Hogue Tamer transforms the gun's ergonomics and makes it genuinely pleasant to shoot.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this grip fit my Smith & Wesson revolver?
The Hogue 60020 is designed for S&W J-frame Centennial round butt models and the Bodyguard 38. Check your revolver's frame designation before ordering to ensure compatibility.
Does this grip really reduce felt recoil?
Yes. The Sorbothane insert is positioned under the web of your hand to cushion recoil impulse, making the gun more comfortable to shoot, especially with full-power defensive ammunition. That said, it won't eliminate recoil entirely—no grip will.
Can I use a speedloader with this grip?
Yes. The grip has a relief cutout at the top specifically designed to allow speedloader use without interference, so you're not sacrificing reload speed for comfort.
What does the cobblestone texture do?
The stippled surface increases friction between your hand and the grip, helping you maintain control in dry conditions or when wearing gloves. It's more aggressive than a smooth rubber grip but still comfortable for extended shooting.
