DLS Performance Revolver Grips are for shooters who understand performance handgun shooting. Experienced shooters know the grip and the grip frame of the handgun affect how the handgun points at the target.

Glock pistols with the lower rear hump on the grip frame are well known for causing the pistol to point too high. An effort must be made to roll the shooter's hands and wrists downward to bring the sights into proper alignment with the target. To solve this problem the Glock hump has been flattened on many custom Glocks to improve fast action performance.

Revolvers have suffered a similar problem for more than 100 years. If you test point a S&W DA revolver with locked wrists and nearly any conventional revolver grips, you will find the revolver points much too high. In order to overcome the high pointing design of the frame and grips, shooters must roll their hands and wrists downward to bring the sights into proper alignment with the target. This of course can be done with enough practice and training, but why?

The DLS PRG was designed to make the S&W DA revolver point properly and align the sights with the target when the shooter has a locked wrist hold on the revolver. Unlocking your wrists and rolling them downward will no longer be required to bring the sights into alignment with the target. The design of the PRG completely solves this problem and allows shooters to keep a strong, locked wrist grip on the revolver. The PRG is a superior design for both iron sights and red dot optics. Finding the dot has never been easier.

Shooters who are experienced with the 1911 autopistol notice how well the pistol points with locked wrists. Due to the grip angle design of John Browning, the sights naturally come into alignment with the target while the shooter has a locked wrist grip on the pistol. The DLS PRG allows this same fast and positive alignment of the sights with the target while the shooter has a locked wrist grip on a revolver.

These grips are NOT blocky, oversized and fragile competition grips. The PRGs are constructed of heavy duty G10 and designed for hard use, very well suited to duty, EDC, CCW, as well as practical competition. They are slim across the midsection: the K-L PRG is only approximately 1.080" thick, and the N frame PRG is only approximately 1.150" thick. (A single stack 1911 pistol is commonly 1.250" thick) The PRG is well suited to average sized hands, and the bottom hand stop can be relieved for extra large hands. The PRG has twin internal locator pins, and triple outer cross bolts for excellent fit and durability. The PRG is a two piece clamshell style grip so installation is easy. (Square butt S&W revolvers can be professionally converted to roundbutts so the PRG will fit properly).

The DLS PRG design is large enough to allow for complete control of the revolver, yet small and contoured enough for everyday carry and CCW.

Inside the butt of the grip there is a concealed lanyard anchor. This allows for a simple, heavy duty bootlace to be looped through the internal anchor during installation to provide revolver retention in rough field and water environments. Excellent for ATV, horseback, hunting, boating and fishing. When a lanyard is not required, the lanyard anchor is invisible and silent.
(Cautionary note about lanyards: When choosing a lanyard, make sure it is strong enough to support the weight of the firearm when dropped, BUT make sure the lanyard will break before pulling your body weight into a dangerous situation, such as a boat propeller.)

The front bottom hand stop is superb for controlling recoil and muzzle rise. High performance speed shooters know that allowing the revolver to recoil upward is nothing but time wasted off target. Time ON target is the goal. Keeping the sights aligned with the target allows for accurate follow up shots at high speed. The front bottom hand stop has delivered proven performance in this area.

The top rear 'beavertail' spreads and controls recoil, as well as keeps the sights on the target when the shooter is using a locked wrist grip on the revolver. The beavertail allows the shooter to get high on the revolver and as close to a straight line as possible with the line of the muzzle. The PRG positions the shooter's hands in the best position to operate the trigger, and stay in-line with the bore line of the revolver.

The PRG G10 outer texture is smooth enough to allow the shooter to purposely shift his grip during fast gun handling. Once the perfect hand hold is achieved the shooter can use the contours of the PRG to lock in his grip on the revolver. The PRG is unrivaled when it comes to weapon retention in CQB situations. The PRG are not sticky like some rubber revolver grips so they do not drag on clothes when CCW. These grips are smooth, but not slippery. The combination of smoothness and contours allow them to be shifted in the hands during high speed gun handling, then locked in place with the contours once a final firing grip is achieved. They can also be further custom fit and contoured during custom gun builds, as well as stippled for those who so desire.

The PRG allows for both double action and single action shooting with all but the largest of oversized target hammer spurs. Speedloader and cylinder latch operation remain unobstructed. Shooters who fire their double action revolver in single action mode will find that cocking the hammer into the SA mode is best done with the thumb of the SUPPORT hand. This is quickest and most positive. It also leaves the shooter's strong hand in a full control position on the PRGs.
