eerw Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I found the scales kind of slippery as my grip shifted a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nayr Posted March 30, 2018 Author Share Posted March 30, 2018 Well, my Lok Shadow 2-specific palm swell Bogies arrived today. I think we have a winner! Jayson did a great job with the design on these ones. They definitely help to fill my palm without affecting trigger reach as the top portion of the grips are incredibly thin. With some Pro Grip, I don't think I'll have any real grip issues. My only complaint would be that I wish the Bogies were slightly more aggressive (the custom pair I had Jayson do seemed a bit more aggressively cut) and that the palm swell was slightly larger. I ordered the black/gray variant, and I think I'll probably go with black/blue or zombie for the back-up gat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the same as VZ diamondbacks. Very aggressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart are you guys going to make the mikro grips for the czechmate or TSO? Also are there any plans on making a thicker or palm swell version?

Sdlrodeo Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I’ve got the 2.0 Scales on my shadows. Thinking about doing some file work to them to spice them up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't really have to fit mine. Took about 1 minute of filing to make the hole larger for the screw to fit, and I was finished. I've tried CZ Lemon Graters, standard S2 grips, LOK Palm Swell Bogies, and Scales 2.0. The Scales 2.0 are my favorite followed by the Palm Swell Bogies (just a hair too wide for me, and was still slippery during summer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdyb Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I'd be willing to try the Ceasar shop grips. Seen them on lots of stuff on the shadow 2 fb page. But it would be on a whim as I'm happy with what I have right now.

What do you like about the Scales? Do you think they increase the reach to the trigger from something like a CZC thin grip or the Palm Swell Bogies? Im not sure what Lok does differently on the palm swell Bogies but the texture is noticeably less aggressive than the custom slim Bogies he cut for me. Right now I’m leaning towards just having him do the Roughneck texture on the Palm Swell grips and calling it a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really locks in, and I will actually get callouses on my strong hand from pinching (doesn't actually hurt). If the palm swell bogies aren't as aggressive, it'd probably be ergonomic issues with palm swells not fitting your hand right resulting in gaps between the grip and your hand. SSI grips will bring your grip width to match a 2011. Edited April 1, 2018 by SlvrDragon50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After some more dry fire with the Lok Bogies palm swell, I think I'm sticking with Lok. My double-action reach is just slightly lengthened with the palm swell, but my sight stability is much improved over their thin grips. The palm swells give me a lot more "meat" to hold on to on the gun. I asked Jayson to send me an invoice for a set of the Shadow 2 Roughnecks. I want to compare them side-by-side.

Scales are pretty common so I have no doubt that you will come across a set. If my hands didn't sweat like crazy I would get the LOK grips, but I just find the Scales to do much better with profuse sweating. I had to use chalk with the Bogies. I still do with the Scales, but I can't get away without it if I forget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nayr Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 After a bit of a wait, I received my Lok Shadow 2 Palm Swell Grips in the Roughneck pattern today. After comparing side-by-side, this is by far the closest in texture to the PT Evo grips that I've come across. Very happy with these grips, although I think the Bogies are also excellent.

Firefight5243 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I have the czc aluminum pocket grips on my czechmate. They have the same texture as the evo but because they are only on the sides they don’t bite like the evo. But for the CZ options I found them to be the best.
