B_Seehawer Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Newer Evos you need to modify the Dawson. Ask [mention=19787]donnyglock[/mention], He had to do it for both of the Evos I got in late 2018.Weird, I wonder what changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Keen Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Yeah there's been no change to the EVOs since their inception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then why does each batch of grips I have over the years have slight change to the pattern on the grip. Small changes have been made. Its become much more clean over the years. All positive changes, but changes none the less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Keen Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I meant in the overall dimensions. There's no reason a standard 2011 magwell shouldn't fit without modifying it. Unless it's a proprietary design magwell such as Infinity or Cheely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shmella Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 (edited) Funny how all of the magwell and steel grip manufacturers are coming out with ways to overcome the metal grip situation of mags getting stuck. I remember getting flamed a year or two ago by people in this same topic on Facebook for saying the only way around mag sticking is to dremel your grip. Even Phoenix Trinity’s Tiffany hopped in on the trashing. Now they have a proprietary magwell to overcome the “problem” that didn’t exist?

MVPFc Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 There have not been any changes to the EVO design. Internally or externally. We did notice a while back that Dawson made some changes to their magwells that caused interference when fitting. We were using them on Honchos up until this change. So we developed our own to save time on builds. Our grips and magwells are not and never will be proprietary. We prefer to give our customers options. As there are a few available from other manufacturers. Our magwells will be available for individual sale in the near future. - Tiffany (the supposed trasher) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not proprietary. Mags easily stick in your grips without a funnel style magwell. Some other grip manufacturers don’t, don’t which I pointed out. That was an issue that a lot of people had. I linked a post from here that showed ppl wallowing out their grips to overcome the issue. The pt fan boys trashed me for it. And said it was a non issue. You actually said. “if anyone goes full retard on an evo grip we won’t warranty it” aka you jumped in on the fun. I bet the guys who said it was a non issue own your magwel that corrects it now.

Shmella Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 So the magwells that you will be selling correct an issue that allegedly, according to pt sponsored shooters, doesn’t exist.... I even said at the time I was only pointing it out to suggest looking at the issue and find a way to contour it better or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVPFc Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 The only “issue” our magwell corrects is having to do extra work to fit to our grip. I’m not sure why you’re so bent out of shape about this. I do stand by my opinion that an incorrect reload causes mags to jam, not the grip. You obviously disagree. That’s ok. People are allowed to disagree. It’s free will. If you feel so strongly about it I encourage you to develop a metal grip and magwell that you feel does a better job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shmella Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I just think it is funny that you and the Facebook possie was quick to call me stupid for suggesting it could possibly be the grip to blame then a year later develop and sell a magwell that corrects this non issue. Ironic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Racinready300ex Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 More than one person has been flamed on FB for pointing out mags getting stuck in the grips. I always thought the best approach would of been to try to find a work around to make the product even better. Instead you were more likely to be told you sucked a reloading.

That’s exactly my experience. I thought I was helping by pointing it out. Instead I was fed to the wolves. Now there are magwells to work around it.
