Sam Radford Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Has anybody got RGC ratings of these grippers and their different strengths? Someone on eBay has a vast collection but would like to know what strength / rings I need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannon Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I have some in Rate and Return but don't have access to that spreadsheet right now. It's not many grippers though. I think AG 2 band is similar to #1 AG 3 band is like a #2.5 and AG 4 bands were typically 160-170 I believe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1stCoC Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Atomgripz still in business? A way to contact them/ him? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannon Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 It's Tetting-esque knurling if I remember correctly. Sharper rather than smoother. Atomgripz still in business? A way to contact them/ him? They are not in business as far as I know, but I have not tried to reach them in a couple of years. I've not heard of anyone getting a new gripper for quite a while and I couldn't find a homepage for their store anymore on Google. The links I found were dead ends.

greasygorrilla Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 All mine wher rated by CPW just recently. 2 band smooth steel handle 82. 3 band knurled aluminum handle 113. 4 band smooth steel handle 159. 4 band smooth steel handle 168. The knurling is comparable to Tettings while the smooth handles are harder to close being it hard to grip and dig in. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna make a purchase today so should have them for SaturdayNotice to allI ordered from this guy around a month or more back and he still didn't send me anything. He is always saying give me more time. I'll file a claim against him if by tomorrow he didn't send me. The problem is I bought lots of grippers from him. Paid more than $250+. There is a well known gripboard member here (won't mention his name but if he'll say then up to him) who ordered grippers from this guy and he got all but one and he is ignoring his emails now and is not refunding him. Anyway this is only a heads up guys. If I ever wanna order from him again I'll ask him to send the items first and when I receive it THEN I'll pay him.

Alawadhi Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 After few messages exchange I finally got my order. One gripper was not available when I initially paid for it but he refunded me now. He sent me a free mini gripper as a sorry for being late and two of the grippers I ordered was wrong (narrow nor normal width) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
