Hogue HandAll Beavertail Grip Sleeve Purple Rubber Glock 42 43 - 18206 - UPC 743108182062
Product Description
The Hogue HandAll Beavertail Grip Sleeve is precision-molded specifically for slimline, single-stack micro-compact handguns including the Glock 42 and Glock 43. Engineered from a highly durable, flexible synthetic rubber, this sleeve installs directly over the factory polymer frame to transform slim grip dimensions into a more ergonomic, recoil-absorbing shooting interface. The purple finish adds a vibrant, customized aesthetic while maintaining duty-grade traction under adverse conditions.
Featuring single finger grooves, subtle palm swells, and Hogue's proprietary Cobblestone™ stippled texturing, the sleeve optimizes hand placement and aids in controlling muzzle flip during rapid fire sequences. The integrated high-tang beavertail cushions the web of the shooter's hand against snappy recoil and guards against slide bite. Formulated to withstand gun oils, cleaning solvents, and extreme temperatures, the elastomer material preserves its shape and tactile grip without slipping, stretching out, or degrading over time.
By filling out the narrow profile of slimline concealed carry frames, the HandAll Beavertail sleeve helps eliminate hot spots and hand fatigue without adding excessive bulk. This ensures carry holsters retain proper alignment while enabling consistent trigger reach and enhanced weapon retention across primary and secondary compatible pistol platforms.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:
Fitment Matrix: Primary fit for Glock 42 (.380 ACP) and Glock 43 (9mm) single-stack factory frames. Also fits and functions exceptionally well on Beretta 85; Bersa BP9CC & Thunder 380; FN FNS-9 Compact; HK HK45 Compact (HK45C); Mossberg MC1SC; SAR B6P; and Walther PK380, PPK, PPK/S, PPS, and PPS M2.
- Verify the firearm is fully unloaded with the magazine removed and chamber visually inspected.
- Warm the rubber grip sleeve using a household hairdryer for 45–60 seconds to soften the elastomer compound for easier stretching over frame contours.
- Apply a small amount of rubbing alcohol or glass cleaner to the inside of the sleeve as a temporary installation lubricant. Slide the sleeve up over the base of the frame, align the finger groove and beavertail tang, and allow 24 hours for the liquid lubricant to completely evaporate before use.
