Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The pachmayr grips are a deep burgandy color and high gloss. These grips are the cats meow!

These fit my new production (2018) taurus 856 stainless. Fits an 856 perfectly.

Must have upgrade to taurus 605 revolver. Made the * look so much better also. Shot full house 357 loads, handled beautifully.

The grip fills my hand better and provides some extra purchase for my pinky--something the factory grip did not do.

The package comes with the grips, dowel pin and screw. Fit perfectly and snugly after replacing the factory grips pin with the internal pachmayr pin.



Cons

There is definitely discoloration on the wood compared to the other side. Bought these from lg outdoors and returned, not as avertised.

Very well shipped received in great shape and very nice product.


Otherwise very comfortable and wood quality of laminate is decent.

Competitiveness


The pachmayr grips are a deep burgandy color and high gloss so they look great on my revolver.


They fit my sons taurus model 85 ultra-light and my wife's taurus model 856 like a glove.


I purchased my wife's model 856 used, and the guy i bought it from had removed the grip pin and didn't have it anymore.

    Mine still had play on the revolver frame


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The tape provided didnt fill the gaps and really where the instructions tell you to put it are not the best


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Not a deal breaker but added 2030 minutes of fiddling at the workbench


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They have held up well but over the decades have become hard and fairly uncomfortable firing p rounds


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I started hammering from the right side of the gun and the pin came out from the left enough to be pulled out with fine pliers


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I am not sure about the people saying these grips dont fit the 605


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    No instructions so maybe some one new to shooting and firearms might think it is challenging

    I did not like the rubber grips on my taurus 856 ultralite
