    And that would be an awesome idea

    (I don't often carry a J-frame, but when I do, it's as a single sidearm rather than as a BUG.)
    With J frames I have too much hand, not enough gun, I have to use the same grip Jerry Miculek uses on a J frame, just left handed, and with my left thumb on top of the laser housing as a thumb rest. When shooting one handed I just leave the left hand in that same grip position.

    Cracking?? Seriously...grrr I just bought a pair. If flexing is the problem what if the inside of the grip was filled like with silicone. I really don't care about shock absorption, I just wanted a deeper front to back grip with a laser.

    Yes, the rubber in that little recoil absorbing area they build into that grip tends to crack away from the hard plastic portion.

    They sell two part molding rubber that's pourable. That might take care of the flexing problem. Or silicone caulk. Fill the grip put it on the revolver and let it cure.

    I want a marriage of the Light/Laserguard with the Railmaster Pro: a light/laser combo with the activation button in the same place as a DG switch.
