New revolvers at SHOT/Lipsey's release

[jh9]

The setup you've got on the left and the discussion about hockey tape got me to do something similar-ish with my LG-405s. I've had a pair for awhile and just never found anything they really "worked" with because of how small front-to-back a J-frame with no padding is.



Started with some closed cell foam to fill in the "gap"on top so I could get a higher grip like with the stock VZs. Then added strips of foam and layers of hockey tape. Still snappy with .32 magnum HSDs but much more do-able with those 405s.

This. I have a 432UC and a 432UC Ti. The difference in the pocket is noticeable.

Same.

Data to support:
My 432UC weighs 17.2 oz unloaded.
My 432UC Ti weighs 13.1 oz unloaded.

4.1oz is noticeable in the hand, and even more so in the pocket.

By chance, Have you weighed them without the grips?

My 432-UC with the retrofitted Ti cylinder, and grips removed, comes in at 11.4 oz. on my kitchen counter scale. It’s a pleasure to run in a Bulman/AFR pocket holster.

I haven't weighed them but the VZ's that come on the UC's are considerably
heavier than the Hamre Forge or 405's which are on my UC's

FWIW, my 432-UC with the retrofitted Ti cylinder and the Hamre Forge J-Frame Spegel Boot Grip comes in about 2 oz. heavier, 13.3 oz.

My lcrx .38 was only 11.5 oz with the rubber hogues removed. I bet it is close with the Rogers grip!

Finally got a chance to put some rounds through my 432UC Ti today. I did install an Apex kit beforehand. I'm extremely pleased with this gun. This was several cylinders each of HDC 32 Long wadutters and the LR 32H&R wadcutters. POI was the same and every round fired on the first pull. I just ordered a Wyoming Sight Drifter to correct the slightly left POI. Groups were shot at 10 yards at a fairly quick pace.

It is. I also bought it to adjust the windage on my 632. My 432 needs it too but I’ll have to send it back for light strikes first.
