o27 Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 How does it compare to the Legion? I would have thought the metal AXG would be the heavier, but it’s not by a long shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steppenwolf Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 I just got a good deal on an AXG Scorpion. It appears that the Legion slide will work with the AXG grip (according to a couple of Q's asked on the SIG web site related to AXG grip). I ordered a large back strap panel. I like the feel of the gun and it shoots well. I'll have to try the legion slide on it. The Legion slide has competition sights vs. the AXG Pro's X-Ray sights. The Scorpion fits in my X5 Legion holster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steppenwolf Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) Aluminum AXG grip is lighter than the Legion grip. AXG grip is a bit thinner, but you can get larger side and back grip panels for the AXG grip. I like the "feel" of the AXG grip, but need a larger back panel (and may get larger side panels) given I have longer fingers.

I would have thought the metal AXG would be the heavier, but it’s not by a long shot the frame is only aluminum, hard to get that to equal a bunch of tungsten powder. if it was a steel frame...... and the grip scales are incredibly light. they are so thin this is where i think brass grips might be a good thing if you wanted weight.

o27 Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Ahhh yeah, I missed the Alu part, mistook the frame for being steel frame, makes sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpeters11 Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Not yet, if LOK offers grips in the future, I might have to snag a AXG grip for my Max. LOK’s CZ brass grips are amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdyb Posted July 10, 2021 Author Share Posted July 10, 2021 beacuse of the nature of the frame where the grips mount on the AXG i think brass grips would be easier to make than for some other models. i would buy them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This feels very similar to a P series grip. How is the accuracy of the AXG Pro? Better than X5 Legion? CZ Shadow 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grips arrive this weekend. Shoots well, handles well, weighs a good middle weight and fits my hand nicely. Rowdy did you direct mount our plate the holosun? I just pick up an AXG pro this weekend. Have a spare RMR I was going to put on it. That and an AC curved trigger and I should be gtg. Love the feel of it. Even better than my legion.

Blue Jacket Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Any concerns with taking the magwell off and breaking the grip on a reload. I was surprised there wasn’t any metal there when I took mine off. Needs to be off for CO and I can’t seat my 23 rounders with henning base pads when it’s on there.

I was surprised there wasn’t any metal there when I took mine off. Needs to be off for CO and I can’t seat my 23 rounders with henning base pads when it’s on there. I could see how in an extreme case that might happen. I have a pretty clean reload so I'm not worried about it. But yes, the frame leaves some of the grip panel exposed/unsupported at the magwell opening and the grip screw is pretty close to this juncture as well. But you'd have to be way way off angle and going really really hard. The 3d printed grips are more flexible than the stock ones, so hard to tell if they would bend and absorb the hit better or be flimsier and break. The new Lok grip set, even at $115, is worth a look.

rowdyb Posted August 2, 2021 Author Share Posted August 2, 2021 I like the Warren rear sight but have ordered a different Dawson one to replace the Warren front. Different in height and width. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdyb Posted August 6, 2021 Author Share Posted August 6, 2021 Put on the different Dawson front sight and the new LOK grips for the AXG. Wow, those new grips really work for this gun! Love 'em, even though I no longer run them on my CZ for this gun they really work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Jacket Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I’m going to check those grips out. Look nice glad they are working for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
