I thought it was around ~120 but next to Canon rated&made Fe 136, it feels same or heavier. These Barabans are super random with heaviness How's the knurling on the RB compared to Standard? I haven't bought a RB gripper yet but I definitely need at least one at some point 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't bought a RB gripper yet but I definitely need at least one at some point Its a notch below standard, but not too much. I have around 8 RBs and they come in two variants, one with lesser bands and one with deeper bands around handle. The shallower one is very similar to Standard, and is slimmer, (20.1mm vs 20.2 vs 20.3 another RB) - I have to get digital calipers Compared to CoCs or even GG they are super rough. I like that easier ones you can use without chalk. I could now do a gripper review I guess, I even own a GHP, although 9 2 hours ago, John Knowlton said: looks great, nice work.

martincerven Posted March 11 Author Share Posted March 11 Today and yesterday I tried my unrated #3, got it to around 10mm, but my 148lb grip genie was almost closed - that is super progress for me (holes are from choker, but I don’t like this GG in a choker idk why) 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't bought a RB gripper yet but I definitely need at least one at some point It's been a while since I've bought some RB-grippers but his grippers vary a lot. Spring type and size, handle spread and knurling. He does not always use the same tools for the knurling. I know that because I've had several RB-grippers with completely different type of knurling. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's not good, I'm not sure I'll get one then. The price for shipping is also around 25€, which is a bit much for just a gripper. If I end up buying something else from him then I might add a gripper or two, just to have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t, I actually disliked doing wide sets, but it wasn’t that bad today, I guess doing deep sets improves your wide/TNS too 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
