Put a set of red ones on my duo-tone shadow 1 and they rock. Very hand filling and grippy. Did anyone else get the nifty shopping cart key that unlocks the cart without having to spend a quarter. Gonna save so much money. Thought it was funny and such a random item to include with pistol grips.

Can anyone who has run these comment on grip compared to LOK bogies?  They look very similar in design.

Cheers,

Depending on which size grip you order, they will either be bigger or smaller than the Lok grips.  I have both Lok palm swell bogies and med Armanov grips. I prefer the Lok.  The fit better in my hands.

Which grip is more aggressive/has more grip?  LOK or SpidErgo?

They are both almost the same.   If my hands are wet, I'm getting the Lok would stay grippy and the Aluminum  grips will be more slippery.

The Med is closest to the CZ factory rubber grips.

They have a sizing chart on their website that you print out and put your hand on it to figure out which size you need.

Yes but until you get them in your hand it is really hard to know what will "feel" the best/most secure.  Medium is probably the safest pick.

I originally considered these grips but ended up buying LOK palm swells.  Unfortunately, the LOK palm swells don't quite fill my hand as I would like, mostly in the middle of my palm.  I think that what I need is a grip that bulges out more quickly at the rear of the grip.

What I really want is something that feels like my Sig P210 Target grips but the closest thing is probably Nill grips, which don't look like they have quite the same contour as the Sig.

Thus, I'm considering Armanov again.

Anyone out there with experience with both the Armanov grips and the LOK palm swells that can speak to the difference in the palm swell?

I know Armanov used to have a guide on their site about hand size and grip size - I found an old copy of it here.  https://web.archive.org/web/20200614160020/https://armanov.com/knowledge-hub/how-to-choose-proper-grip-size/

According to that, I'm a medium (7.5" whereas the cut-off between medium and large is 7.7") but I'm wondering if I should try large.

I went with the LOK palm swell with extra thickness and shadow 2 cut for my SP-01 tactical. Additionally I requested Jason to make as aggressive as possible. He stated that with the extra thickness he could make the holes deeper creating a more aggressive grip. I'm extremely pleased to the point I ordered an additional duplicate set for my SP-01 Shadow Orange.

I have Lok Palm Swell Bogies and the Armanov in both Med and Large.  What do you want to see? Its hard to translate feel for you since everyone is different.

You gave measurements at the screw and mag release for the medium Armanov and LOK palm swell - do you have those measurements for the large Armanov?

With the LOK palm swell grips, I just feel like my hand isn't making contact everywhere I would like them to so I'm looking for something more hand filling.

Do you prefer the medium or large between the Armanov and why?  Related, how far is it from the crease immediately below your palm to the tip of your middle finger (so I know if I have bigger or smaller hands than you)?

Any help is appreciated.
