favorite frame style

[Spencer]

its simple it depends on the distance from your body or sholder your wrist sits.. Hold a your arm out easiest is a 45* bring in all the way in and the most comfortable is a 180* frame which nobody makes but agd got close... in between? 90*

Wow you're the first person I've seen to actually get this correct.

A y-grip is closer to 180 degree than the 90 degree though. But the idea is sound. My favorite is the y-grip by far.


To answer the OP's question though, no, it will not be accepted anytime soon.

45 single trigger w/ dye sticky3s is about all I ever have wanted out of a grip (pump).

Yframe followed by intelli are my favorites.

I prefer the y-grip for close in shooting, but give me a single trigger or an intelli and i'll go all day with no complaints.

Ive got a question for everyone that likes the y and z grips.....do you guys have trouble running and shooting?

Any time I move I tighten my grip, which screws up my trigger/finger alignment with every frame i've ever used except 45's. It seems like the the trigger should be angled out more instead of hanging vertically. Also when I shoot with vert/Y frames it seems like I end up pulling the trigger with the joint in my middle finger instead of the tip, which screws up my rhythm. Anyone else have this problem???

I run w/ all 45's and i own one logic 90*
but im digging the all around usefulness of the 86* these days
my lightning cocker(pump) with the ccm trigger frame feels great to the shape of your hand wrapped around it - user friendly,.. if you will

they are so flipp'in nice

[dstud2000]

haven't had a problem running and gunning with my Y frame....but I just do it, I don't really think about it.

[cyrus-the-virus]

It really depends on the gun..

Personaly I love my A1's 45* frame.

86 degree Logic UMF frame.
Most walkable mech mag frame yet.

[PBChappy]

logic 90 or logic UMF i just love there frames

So what do you guys think of these:



I havent really had enough time to draw up the frames very well, but thats a rough idea of what I'm working on. If your wondering about foregrips, I'm going to go a similar style to the E-mag with a dovetail....but that isnt completely decided yet. This is just a rough draft, I'm being forced to redraw everything in Pro E, so putting much effort into drawing it up in solidworks(all I have ATM) is pointless.

The one on the right is just a copy of rouge's vert frame(I think, it was just a good pic to get measurements from) The frame on the left is similar to the UMF, but a little taller grip wise and different contours on the back of the frame.


opinions???

Yframe followed by intelli are my favorites.
