Title: Shadow 2 safety
Post by: Lock-n-load on May 02, 2021, 10:16:22 AM: Do you prefer the flush safety on your shadow 2 or the extended with thumb on top?
Flush feels more comfortable to me ,but are you gaining anything with the bigger one?

Exactly my feelings on it too. My S2 Orange came with the extended safety. I bought a flat one. I never use it, but I still prefer it.

I really like the shelf for my thumb on the competition guns.

I have the S2O, not sure why they didn't include both the flat and the extended.

Tried buying the flat safety on Cesar shop and it's stuck at the Chicago sorting facility.

Yeah. I was surprised to find out the S2O didn’t come with both extended and flat safeties. My regular shadow 2 came with both.

Post by: Sigint2651 on May 06, 2021, 03:17:00 PM: I find that I like the extended for a couple of reasons.

I like to rest the right thumb on it when firing, and I also found that if the safety is even a tiny little bit
engaged, it is on. Resting the thumb on top the extended safety ensures that it is totally off and it
makes my grip a bit more stable, for me.

Post by: Luvdog on May 08, 2021, 07:26:09 AM: I like the extended safety on my S2s. I’m pretty sure They stopped shipping all new ones with both.

Post by: dbarn on May 09, 2021, 09:13:57 PM: I want the highest grip possible and tend to "pinch up" with my grip causing my thumb to extend upwards. Therefore I want the least unobtrusive, non interfering safety device known to man. Make mine thin. :)

Post by: pedropcola on May 16, 2021, 10:14:54 AM: I like using the extended version as a thumb ledge. That being said, it makes manipulation of slide release impossible. So since I never shoot cocked and locked I ended up switching back to the flush version and overall it works much better for me.
