Grips for shadow 2 Compact
« on: September 14, 2023, 06:44:09 PM »
Can anybody confirm that the CZ aluminum grips that fit the P01 will or will not fit the new S2C? If they don't does anybody make aluminum grips that would work? Perhaps it's too new. Finding the same with holsters...
Thanks

Fact...
A JM custom holster for A P01 will not fit the S2.

The rubber grips fit with a tad of persuasion, no idea on alloy grips. 
The S2 on the backstrap is flat along the serrations where the regular compacts have a curved backstrap.

I haven't tried this personally, so try at your own risk.  I had seen a video on which the person modified his CZ75 compact grip to fit his new Shadow2 compact.

All he did was to file back the raised edge of the front edge of the grip until it was narrow enough to fit down in the recessed part of the frame grip. I'm not talking about the edge of the grip that will be exposed, but if you turn the grip over it's the raised portion of the grip that will be located at the front of the grip after it's installed. It's kind of hard to describe, so I'm attaching this photo to hopefully help. Once that edge was trimmed back, the modified grip fit perfectly and the hole for the screw lined up perfectly. 

Like I said, I haven't seen this personally, so try it at your own risk. If maybe you have a junk set of grips for a CZ 75 compact it might be worth trying. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before aftermarket grips are available.

I was looking for the video that I referred to in my post above so that I could add a link, but unfortunately I couldn't find it again, until now.  This short video shows how this individual modified his 75 compact grips to fit his Shadow 2 compact.

 Thanks to the person who originally posted this video.  Hope this helps.

Like stated above you can make some G10 grips fit by removing material to make them go in. Also the back strap is more flat on the S2. I modified some palm swell for mine but I guess I can’t post photos.
