Considering trying one, since local Sportsman's Warehouse has them. Anybody have one on a 32? Or 380?

Hogue lists the Guardian as a fit, but "may require trimming". I've only found two photos of one installed on a Guardian, and neither shows the mag release. I suspect that area would need trimming?

I don't think I would carry with it, as it would add thickness and Hogue's usual sticky to clothing. It would maybe make a range trip more pleasant. So, would it be easy to remove and re-install on occasion, or would it stretch out of shape?

I appreciate any opines on the Handall, thanks!

44 people have read this and not typed a word. I think that tells me all I needed to know.....

I bought wood grips for my Guardian 32.  They worked for me so IDK about the rubber ones you slide on.  Sorry

I have them on my Guardian .380 and they do work. They do not look that good but they do work. I wish somebody would make some rubber replacement grips similar to the Crimson Trace grips minus the laser for the Guardian. That way we could have good looks and a more grippy Guardian.

Thanks for the reply, and the photo. Now I can see that the mag release isn't crowded. I may try one, worth ten bucks just to satisfy my curiosity.

I think that one is a Bobcat or S&W Bodyguard version. Not sure if it was specifically listed for the Guardian or not.
