#Retention

To perfect your draw you want consistency. If your holster is rising with the gun when you draw, you are adding an unnecessary variable to your draw. This negatively impacts the shooter’s grip.

This physical reference also helps ensure you feel the retention position every draw stroke and do not have to change your draw stroke in the event you would need a retention position.

Hogue Grips is introducing an improved version of their well-known rubber wraparound grips for numerous handgun designs. This new line of grips are designed to fit much tighter around a handgun to allow a better purchase on the gun itself. These grips are also incorporating a beavertail that extends up the backstrap of the handguns they are being used with.

Most of the time, we at TFB get to test products. Typically, they are evolutions on top of one another, with new features that push the envelope of accuracy, durability, usability, and/or aesthetics. I enjoy them, but is not often that we are asked to review a new idea or novel approach turned into product form.
