S&W makes a snubbie 457? WANT!!

Seriously, there should be a screw about in the middle of the grip, or at the bottom, depending on the way it was designed. Unscrew, remove old stocks and put on new ones.

Hogues, IIRC, screw onto a bar at the bottom. Check to see it came with the package. THere should be instructions in the package on how to put the Hogues on.

stay safe.
