slazbob Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Does anyone use these anymore? I found them 5/8" handles dig too much into my nerve in my palm. I haven't seen any vids lately using these grippers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 some guys use them, but I personally don't like them. I sold the 2 that I had. I didn't like the pressure it put on my palm when using a heavy spring and the handles pinched the skin of my palm often. They just felt awkward.

slazbob Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 Yeah, I'm not fond of the handle digging as well. They might be a good way to boost an silver bullet hold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel reinard Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I don't have much experience with them. I just file my redundant CoCs. More specific BTR imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerryg Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I sold my GM & SM 5/8" to a board member and I think I still have a Master in my collection....I liked the idea of beyond the range training with them but they didn't feel right.

jchapman Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I agree they don' t feel "right". Maybe if the dogleg was a regular handle and the finger side was a smaller handle, it might be different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
