ABSTRACT:
An integral grip for the handle of a handgun frame is molded from a resilient, flexible, synthetic plastic material. The grip is of generally U-shaped configuration including a curved rear wall and two spaced opposed sidewall portions. The sidewall portions are biased inwardly from the rear wall portion to their outer edges and are also of tapered cross-section diminishing from the rear wall to the outer edges thereof. The material, its distribution and inward bias of the sidewall portions are such that when fitted onto the handle of the handgun frame, the grip will be in tensioned, clamping relation thereon. An undercut rib is disposed on the inner surface of each sidewall portion adjacent the outer edge thereof for interlocking with a recessed edge portion of the handle. Adjacent the lower end of its rear wall portion, the grip includes a boss with a bore therethrough. The handle, itself, includes two laterally-spaced arms which also include bores aligned with the bore of the boss. A pin fitted through the aligned bores serves to fasten the grip onto the handle of the handgun.
