      Okay Tom if you need my opinion here goes.....


      Well for one Dyes will never fit one there, and so is the case with the Emag frame, it would have to be custom.

      The are a few reason's why it is hard for AGD to make a custom grip....for one to make a metal mold takes time and 2 it is unbelievably expensive. It would be made with injection molding.


      I say go with panels, panels are a easy solution.


      If customer's want me to make a custom grip for that frame not a problem if it will be easy for me to buy a frame. I'm up for the challenge.

      Mostly all the time even if you put stock grips on frames, customers always buy a different pair, so go with the panels.

        Any chance we can get the actual CAD files to work with. I know they would be a great help to me!

            I vote for keeping the grip panels and ditch the Dye grips.

                    excellent point shartley

                    i think that panels are fine. agd needs to worry about the best design for the frame and not about shoveling more money into dye.

                      the idea of the design looks good but i dont think that having panels is that big of deal... most people that ive seen that use a z dont wrap there fingers around the frame anyways, but i also dont know if this applies to the y-frame also....

                        As for after market grips...folks will still have options for after market grips? Heather and Myself being at least two sources.
                        Just wanted to put in my two cents worth. I would agree also.

                          here is my idea, lets not worry about the little things and get the things rolling cause i need a friggen grip frame on my mag!

                          Or you know panals work too.

                            I suggest going with panel grips. I wouldn't dare put a set of stickies on mine (if I had one). Are these going to be the aprox. price as the intelliframe?
