History

The company was founded by Guy Hogue in 1968, after he started making pistol grips that would properly fit his hand.[4] As a member of the Los Angeles Police Department,[1] Hogue also started making grips for fellow officers. His grips became so popular that he retired from his job in law enforcement to focus on his own business.[4][1]

The company has expanded over time and now provides grips for at least 16 different brands of handguns, manufactured in four different Hogue facilities.[4] Grips are produced in rubber and in wood, in multiple colors and textures.[4] The company also makes holsters and rifle stocks.[4]

In 2011, the company started producing knives, which led to a move of its headquarters to Nevada, "due in large part to a California statute that prohibits the manufacturing of automatic knives."[5] The company states that it manufactures knives for Heckler & Koch and SIG Sauer, and that Hogue knives "are issued to all branches of the U.S. Military."[6]

Upon Guy Hogue's retirement, leadership of the company passed to two of his sons, Aaron and Patrick.[4][7]
