Posvar Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I think you will be pleasantly surprised. The next best thing I have used was the SV large hands magwell. Much better than the Dawson for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I really liked about the Atlas magwell thou is on the front the magwell doesn’t start until the very bottom of the grip which meant my pinky could fully contact the grip rather than being sandwiched by the magwell which I’ve experienced with the SV big hand and Dawson Big hand. I will gladly trade that for not having mags stick thou. Edited October 15, 2018 by JatCarver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only concern now is that I have really big hands and need a "big hand" magwell. Anyone else like this that uses a Limcat magwell? One thing I love about my atlas magwell is how the front doesn't start until the very bottom of the grip. I have large hands and went from a Dawson large hands that felt great. I could get a full purchase on the frame itself. Switched to the LimCat magwell and it truly fits like a glove. On the plus side I don't ever have a mag get stuck in the magwell due to Dawson's soft inserts. Oh and did someone mention that the V2 orients your mags into the correct plane with the grip?? Limcat V2= Game Changer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harlow Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Looks like limcat has a brass version of the magwell that weighs 7.8 ounces. https://www.limcat.com/limcat-2011-steel-insert-magw-brass Seems to be the heaviest magwell readily available right now.

Yeah the just came out. I have a Atlas Chaos and went with the aluminum one because 8 more oz on a Chaos I’m afraid would make it to heavy.

I'm really tempted because my edge has a polymer grip and I'd really like the extra weight. Only thing is I have Dawson basepads which apparently don't work with the magwell. Don't really want to shell out more money for tti pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posvar Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I would agree with a plastic grip gun. My Hbar Perfect Sight is already at 54.2 with evo grip and without a mag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will give you about 2 more oz. but the Limcat brass magwell with the house will give you about 10 oz. that would be great for polymer grip guns!

I actually have a Dawson steel MSH coming in the mail tomorrow for just that purpose. It's a shame no one makes brass main spring housings, hah.

This V2 magwell seems like it could definitely be one of the best out there for many reasons. Has anyone had experience with modifying a Dawson pad to work with it?

Aiden Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 (edited) I don't really see modifying Dawsons as viable, but mine are currently on loan (and being used with a V1 incidentally). Removing any material at all from the Dawson seems like it's going to compromise the design. Might be a better move to sell and swap. I suppose we need a guy with a silver sharpie and some 140mms to shove them into his V2 and see what happens. For science.

kk4364 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 You would have to shave the back side and both sides to get it where it needs to be. Almost down to the part that is used to slide them open. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I wind up getting a V2 and commit to using it I just may be that guy with a silver sharpie you're referencing. If that happens I'll post results so no one else does something stupid with their Dawson pads,LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiden Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 I might be buying another V2 here shortly. I just grabbed the new Limcat steel grip, and with a Brazos magwell and plastic msh it's exactly 44oz on my 6" gun (unloaded no mag). Gotta figure if I want to add to the weight since 48oz felt so sluggish to me when I was experimenting with the Cheely/V2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
