Long vs. short grips
This category features only long grips for the following CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow models:
-
CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow
-
CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow Orange
These grips can only be used if your firearm does not have a magwell installed, as the magwell reduces the space available for the grip.
What does installing a magwell on the CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow bring?
Sport shooters add a magwell because it:
-
Increases the firearm’s weight
-
Enlarges the magazine well opening
As a result:
-
Improves the weapon’s balance and stability, contributing to more controlled shooting
-
Speeds up and simplifies reloading, even under stress
If you don’t have a magwell and don’t plan to get one, you are in the right category.
