Designed for Popular Pocket .380s: S&W Bodyguard 380, Taurus TCP, and Taurus Spectrum
Micro .380 pistols are built to be light and compact for concealment, but their small grip area can be challenging—especially for shooters with larger hands or during longer practice sessions. The Hogue HandAll Beavertail sleeve is designed to match the grip dimensions of:
A model-specific grip sleeve helps provide:
A snug, stable fit on the frame
More consistent hand placement from draw to follow-through
Better overall traction during recoil
Improved comfort in real-world shooting conditions
Always confirm fit with your specific model and variant to ensure the best match.
Beavertail Support: More Comfort and a More Secure Hold
The beavertail portion adds supportive coverage at the top rear of the grip, helping promote a more consistent and comfortable firing grip. On small pistols, that added support can:
Encourage a higher, more repeatable grip position
Improve stability when shooting faster strings
Increase comfort along the upper backstrap area
Help the pistol feel more “anchored” in the hand
For many pocket-pistol owners, the beavertail design makes the gun feel easier to manage—especially during longer range sessions where a tiny grip can become fatiguing.
Better Traction Where It Matters: Improved Control on Lightweight .380s
Lightweight micro pistols can feel “snappy” compared to larger handguns, even in .380 ACP. A grip sleeve that improves traction can help reduce grip shifting and improve recoil control.
Benefits of enhanced traction include:
More consistent grip during recoil
Improved control for faster follow-up shots
Less need to over-grip (which can cause fatigue)
Better handling in sweat, rain, or cold conditions
More confidence during practice and daily handling
If your factory grip feels slick or your hand tends to shift during recoil, this upgrade can make an immediate difference.
Non-Permanent, Easy Upgrade: No Gunsmithing Required
One of the best parts of a HandAll grip sleeve is that it’s a simple, non-permanent enhancement. It’s ideal for owners who want:
Better ergonomics without modifying the firearm
A reversible upgrade that doesn’t change internals
A fast way to improve comfort and control
A practical improvement for both EDC and range use
It’s a straightforward way to make your carry pistol feel more secure without turning it into a complicated “project gun.”
Slate Grey Finish: Clean, Modern, and Understated
The Slate Grey color adds a refined, modern look that stands out from standard black without being flashy. It also pairs well with:
Slate grey is a great choice for shooters who want subtle customization that still looks professional.
Ideal for Everyday Carry and Range Training
This grip sleeve is a strong fit for:
EDC owners who want improved control on small pistols
Shooters who practice often and want better comfort during longer sessions
New handgun owners building confidence with a micro .380
Anyone who finds the factory grip too small or too slick
Pocket carry setups where comfort and traction matter
A more secure grip can make practice more enjoyable—which often leads to more practice and better proficiency.
