Explosiveo Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Couple of friends have it. Both said its amazing.Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzt Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 I love mine. IMO it has a better shape than the EVO. It fit perfectly without doing a thing. A friend called it a cheese grater grip. It is aggressive, but it doesn't hurt my soft hands. I'd buy another in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fo0 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 what triggers are yall using with this grip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzt Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I used an X-Line. It required fitting. If I build another I'll use the Cheely trigger. The grip is cut for an STI trigger, not SVI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxil343 Posted April 8, 2019 Author Share Posted April 8, 2019 Good deal. I am really leaning toward getting one for a new gun I’m building for my girlfriend. She likes the size of the E2 better than the Evo since it is a little smaller but prefers the texture of the Evo. Seems like a winner. I didn’t know Cheely was making his own triggers now.

theblacklabel18 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 I know they’re new. Anyone here bought one yet?Shay had a few of them on his display guns at nationals, I like them. You get real deep in the beavertail on them should be a great helper with consistent and high strong hand placement. Texture is also great.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this grip is going to take a lot of business from PT now that they have an aggressive texture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzt Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Here is one of my guns. Cheely e2 grip. Not finished yet. It needs more cosmetic attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzt Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 That's the aggressive grip. Mine is the original e2 grip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geraldskip Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I want one of these new grips so bad. I really like the profile of the Evo, but I really prefer light guns. Aluminum sounds perfect for 3 gun open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooked Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Is it possible to use a Dawson Ice magwell on the e2 grip without modifying the grip or magwell? Or will only the Cheely magwell fit? Thanks. B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzt Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Matt told me that all the grip parts are proprietary. I believe him. I once tried using a Cheely Mag catch in an STI Open gun and it flat did not work. BTW, I like his magwell and insert every bit as much as my Dawson Ice.

dansedgli Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Dawson/sti magwells dont fit. My only gripe with the cheely. The ipsc legal magwell option is tiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried the Al e2 grip at the Area * Championship and liked it a lot. I went back and forth about Al or SS. All my other Open guns have poly grips, so they are nose heavy. I decided on the SS, and I'm glad I did. My new gun balances at the back of the trigger guard, right over my weak hand index finger. Even though it is heavier than my other Open guns, it doesn't feel like it. Believe it ir not, it actually feels lighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think the aluminum would do it for me, but it’s hard to say without the grips on hand you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzt Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 A poly grip is 2.8oz. Al is 4.8oz. The SS is 12.8 according the Cheely. The Al grip isn't going to do much for weight redistribution. You can test this for yourself. Put a mag in your gun and add bullets to come up to the difference in weight between your grip and the AL e2. Then do the same for the SS e2. Even after the extra weight of the SS grip, I still have to take material off the front of the gun to get it to balance where I wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpYoursPal Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 How's the size of the Cheely grip versus the regular STI polymer grip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzt Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 It is about the same as an unmodified STI poly grip with Dawson grip tape surrounding it. The two feel completely different. I would never go back to poly. Modifying a poly grip for better texture, undercut, etc. reduces the size of the grip. I have one like that, but could never decide which I liked better. They each have deficiencies. I had intended to get an EVO grip, until I handled the e2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooked Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Does anyone know which DAA insert fits the e2 the best? Many thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
