Pachmayr Diamond Pro Grip S&W "K&L" Frame Round Butt

• Diamond Plate Texture: The molded surface gives the hand a more secure purchase than smooth factory stocks, helping maintain control during rapid strings and with heavier revolver loads.
• One-Piece Wrap-Around Design: This grip slips over the frame and wraps fully around it, creating a clean, gap-free feel that improves comfort and gives the revolver a more consistent hold.
• Rubber Construction: The soft rubber body cushions recoil and reduces sharp impact to the hand, which makes extended range sessions more manageable.
• Round-Butt S&W K&L Frame Fit: Built specifically for Smith & Wesson K and L frame round-butt revolvers, it offers a model-correct fit that preserves handling while improving grip security.
• Natural Hand-Filling Shape: The contour fills the palm more completely than many compact factory grips, promoting steadier pointing and better trigger control in practical shooting use.

About the Pachmayr Accessories Series

Pachmayr Accessories covers a broad range of shooting components built around practical handling improvements rather than cosmetic changes alone. The line includes handgun and revolver grips, rifle grips, and recoil pads for rifles and shotguns, with each product aimed at making a firearm more controllable, more comfortable, or better suited to a specific style of use. Within the revolver segment, Pachmayr offers several distinct grip families, including Diamond Pro, G10 Tactical, Renegade laminate, and American Legend models, so shooters can choose between rubber, wood-laminate, or more tactical-oriented formats.

In the rubber-grip part of the range, the design philosophy centers on secure purchase, recoil management, and a shape that improves how the firearm sits in the hand. Diamond Pro revolver grips stand out for their one-piece wrap-around construction and their molded diamond-plate texture, which gives a more modern feel than traditional checkering while keeping the grip secure under recoil. Across the series, Pachmayr focuses on fit for popular revolver platforms from Ruger, Taurus, and Smith & Wesson, making these accessories especially relevant for shooters who want a straightforward upgrade for field carry, range work, or defensive revolver use.

About the Pachmayr Diamond Pro Grip S&W "K&L" Frame Round Butt

The Pachmayr Diamond Pro Grip S&W "K&L" Frame Round Butt is built for shooters who want a more secure and forgiving hold on a Smith & Wesson K or L frame round-butt revolver. Its main advantage is not simply that it replaces the factory grip, but that it changes how the revolver behaves in the hand. The rubber construction softens felt recoil and spreads pressure more evenly across the palm, which helps keep the gun comfortable during longer practice sessions and easier to control with stout defensive or field loads.

The grip uses Pachmayr’s one-piece wrap-around format, so it covers the frame cleanly and avoids the stepped or uneven feel that can come from poorly matched panels. That fuller shape helps the revolver sit naturally in the hand and supports a steadier point, which is useful both for deliberate double-action work and for faster close-range shooting. The defining surface treatment is the Diamond Plate texture, which adds traction without relying on sharp checkering. In practice, that means a firmer hold with less shifting under recoil and better control when hands are wet, cold, or under stress.

Because this model is made specifically for the round-butt K&L frame format, it is a practical upgrade for shooters who want improved comfort and purchase without changing the basic balance and handling qualities that make these Smith & Wesson revolvers so widely used.

About Pachmayr

Pachmayr was founded by Frank Pachmayr in 1929, and the company’s early custom gun shop operated in Los Angeles, California. Over time, the brand became closely associated with practical firearm upgrades, especially recoil-control products and handgun grips. Pachmayr introduced its first recoil pad in 1949, and its rubber handgun grips followed in the early 1960s, helping establish the company as a specialist in shooting comfort and handling.

Today, Pachmayr is known for making handgun grips, recoil pads, gunsmithing tools, and shooting accessories, with product families such as Diamond Pro, G10, Renegade, and American Legend covering different materials and user preferences. The brand joined Lyman in 1996, linking it with a long-established name in shooting equipment while retaining its own identity in grips and recoil-reducing components.
