Probably best to find someone who bought a nitride and wants to change grips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chalkdust21 Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 It’s probably going to be awhile before any shadow 2 specific accessories are available; but I could definitely use some thicker grips asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slavex Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I think I have at least one spare set if not 2 or 3 sets of blue grips for the Shadow 2, will have to take a look this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosmosMpower Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I know it's in a different class but will a shadow 2 outshoot a TSO? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't see how you can compare them for the exact reason you mentioned. They're designed to dominate in their respective categories, and it's not really reasonable to expect it to outperform the other in a category it wasn't designed for.

sfinney Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 (edited) I heard CZ75/SP01 grips would fit a Shadow 2, but not the other way around? Edited March 17, 2017 by sfinney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingair001 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) Mine - is on the way - but has the black grips At Shot Show they showed a Shadow 2 with red grips and base + red trigger and mag release Looks nice !

slavex Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 yeah mine have red grips on them. Much nicer. But no other red bits sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B_RAD Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I'm picking up my poly shadow 2 in a few hours. Then got a call about about a nitride one with the pretty blue grips. So I need two? I already got two shadow 1's. Ha ha. Man, I got a problem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glock24 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 So I called CZ-USA today and spoke with a sales rep and their gunsmith. I was looking for as much information as I could gather about the dimensional differences in the grip area between the Shadow 2 and the TS Orange. I can't decide which one I want, but I just sold my Tanfoglio Stock III because the grip area it was a bit too big, even with thin aluminum grips. Both the sales rep and the gunsmith agreed that even though the Shadow 2 takes the smaller CZ-75 magazines, the grip has significantly more girth. In fact, both agreed that even after holding the Shadow 2 and the TS Orange, they wouldn't be able to declare that the Shadow 2 was smaller than the TS Orange. So now I'm nervous. The original CZ-75 frame is perfect for me, but I really, really want checkering (no grip tape). I'm concerned that buying the Shadow 2 will feel like the Stock III which I don't like. I know some say the Stock III and the Shadow 2 are close cousins, but I also know that we can only get the large frame version of the Stock III. I would have assumed people would be more correctly comparing the Shadow 2 to the small frame Stock III. Now I'm not so sure. Anyone have any insight that can help me?

rowdyb Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 The grip is a little wider. But to me it feels smaller at the top where you get your hand up under the beavertail. The circumference of the gun feels good there. I am running flaz VZ grips on mine right now, I wear a medium motorcycle glove, and the gun feels awesome.

Am not one of the rotten and spoiled sob's that has a shadow 2 already, but maybe this will give you a flavor of how the TSO's compare to a traditional 75 (seems like everyone has shot a 75 at one time or another so I am making an assumption). Going back and forth shooting yesterday you definetly feel the higher grip with your hand seated into the TSO but it seems like it does not screw up your index. My 75 is actually wider, but that it only because of my choice of grips. Shadow 2 adjustable magazine release would definetly be better I think. Mine (TSO) is digging a tunnel in my left hand.
