Which Texture on Cheely grip?

[cbrussell]

I have finally decided on a Cheely E2 Grip for my Limited 40 S&W. Now the decision; which texture? I want it to grippy but don’t want to tear my hands up. I am presently using an Polymer grip which I stippled with the most aggressive OTDefense tip.

I use a 20 lip checkered mainspring housing. I embedded a 20 lip EGW 20 lip checkered insert in the front strap.

What texture should I go with?

Thanks.

The aggressive texture, if you like the feel of machine cut 20LPI.

If it's too sharp, you can always hit the points with a little abrasive and round them.

Do a search here. The standard texture is absolutely grippy enough without feeling like a wood rasp.

The first time I handled a PT Evo grip I thought it would destroy my hands when shooting the gun.  I distinctly remember feeling like I had to peel my hand off the gun to let it go.  After the first day of shooting with one, I can't imagine using anything else.  The aggressive E2 texture is very similar to the PT standard, PT and SVI aggressive are on another level.  If you are accustomed to 20 LPI the swap to the E2 aggressive should be painless.

I also went from an STI grip to a Cheely E2 aggressive grip. After about a week of having sore hands, I too can't imagine using anything else. Love it.

I have the standard grip texture on my cheely and have no problem with my hands slipping.   It is grippy enough for me.

I really like the Extra Aggressive E2. I have been using it for well over a year. Never would go back to anything less aggressive if I can help it.

This ^^^^^^.  My friends who shoot other grips always comment on how grippy the standard e2 is.  Some say it's too grippy.  I think it just right.

The standard E2 is very grippy, and I was pleasantly surprised the first time I handled one. That said I like the aggressive one even more, and don't find it uncomfortable even during extended duration.

The advantage of using the Extra Aggressive Cheely E2 is I can do some finish work on these when I am not shooting:

I wish I had gone with the aggressive grip on my SVI

Oh yes, aggressive SVI is wonderful.

If you have micropockets, I bet it won't hurt to ask them to put your existing grip in the mill to make it aggressive.

Love the aggressive texture on my E2!

[Drmike]

I have the E2 double undercut and aggressive texture.  LOVE IT!

Aggressive, unless you use a new pronoun like non-binary...

[Silverscooby27]

I find the aggressive to be too much if I’m practicing a lot. True, not a big deal for the 3-12 minutes of trigger time during a match.

Standard texture E2 or L2.
