A coaxial cable connector includes a connector body having a rearward cable receiving end and a gripping ferrule fixed within the rearward cable receiving end of the connector body. The gripping ferrule includes at least one flexible finger deflected in a radially inward direction and extending in a forward direction opposite the rearward cable receiving end of the connector body for permitting forward insertion of a cable into the connector body and for gripping the cable to prevent rearward removal of the cable from the connector body.
