    Thinking about getting new grips for my Shadow 2. I’ve had VZ grips before and they looked nice but weren’t the drastic improvement in grip that I was looking for. Anyone have experience with the LOK grips and can compare them to the VZ? Was looking at the LOK bogies, not the palm swell version. I have medium sized hands.

    The LOK bogie thin grips are perfect for me on my shadow 2. I tried the palm swell version was a little too big for my largish hands. The thins are about the same thickness as the stock aluminum ones but have far better grip.

    Have also used them. Comparable to vz in pretty much every respect.

    I only had them on CZ pistols and every single set had a minor gap on the right side that was barely perceptible when gripping the pistol, but there was a tiny bit of flex. This occurred on 3/3 pistols with different sets of grips.

    Never tried vz grips on them so I can’t say if they are different. But as far as feel and construction they look identical to the vzs I have on 1911s.

    Hope this helps a little.

    Update- put 250rds through it today with the LOK thin bogies. Much better grip than the factory grips and in my opinion better than the other VZ grips I’ve owned. Pic posted in the “CZ Porn” thread
