Cheely or Atlas

We were at Area 8 yesterday.  Atlas had a Nemesis built on PT stuff as well as another Nemesis style gun built on a STI Frame and the new Cheely grip.  They have thoroughly tested the new grip and had some feedback for Matt Cheely.  Cheely is going to create a custom Cheely grip for Atlas that is more grippy.  If you do not want it grippy, Adam from Atlas said he can take the points off as a option.

 

Atlas has a new thumb safety which felt REALLY awesome.

 

If your preference is for Cheely parts, Atlas may build it using either PT or Cheely parts in the future.  It then boils down to preference of builder and style.

That is an interesting development.  Thanks for passing that along.

What's the scoop on the new thumb safety?

It’s a prototype thumb safety.  It has a wider and longer paddle to rest your thumb.  Ergonomically, it felt better although that could also be in combination with the Cheely grip.

 

I would reach out to Atlas to inquire directly as I did not see anything on their site or FB page.
