| 32 Degrees Gel Grips attach to any 45 frame that has two screw hole son each side. Adds a unique color and a comfortable feel to any gun grip. The finger grooves also make it more comfortable than a stock 45 straight grip. |
|
| Product Availability | |
|
| The 32 Degrees Gel Grips are newer, so they should be commonly available, both new and used. |

| Marker Setup: |
Tippmann 98 Custom, Psycho Ballistics double trigger, 32 Degrees Gel Grips, 14" J&J Ceramic, Psycho Ballistics Universal drop forward, 12V Revvy w/Xboard |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Really comfortable-- much more comfortable then the stock grips that came on my 98 Custom. Have a great positive grip, so you don't have to worry about dropping your gun when your hands get sweaty, or when it is cold and everything seems slippery. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Nothing that I can think of. The holes don't line up perfectly, but take your time and that problem will be fixed. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is a good investment. Was going to get the DYE stickies, but since these are cheaper, and built out of the same stuff, then why not give these a try. If you get these for a 98 Custom, then I recommend getting the PB double trigger, that fits into the same slot as your stock guard. Go get it , it won't disappoint you. |

|
|
| Strengths: |
it looks cool and it feels cool......nothing more could be good about it....its only a grip |
|
| Weaknesses: |
ummm..the holes dont align PERFECTLY but they align well enough to screw on with out having to do any major adjustment.
for custom/model 98 owners, theres a little more bad to it, becuase 1-if you have a double trigger(there are two models one goes into the origional slot where your sinlge tirgger went, and the other, where it goes into the other slot) if you have the one that goes in to the other slot, then you need to cut a square out to fit it in right. its not a real big deal.......just make sure you have a damn sharp knife, that will work the best. 2- to take apart the gun you need to take that off, unless you put another cut down the middle(i personally wouldnt reconmend doing that) |
|
| Conclusion: |
i know from the amount i put it the bad you'd exxpect me to putin like a one or two, but it IS a great grip, jsut m98 owners, there is a little more hassle, but barely, it shouldnt bother you AT ALL. it just takes you like an extra 30 seconds everytime you wanna take your gun apart, no big deal

Dye Stickies, Freak grips |
|
| Marker Setup: |
Tippmann 98 Custom, BS Electropneumatics, LP Valve, Bigshot, much other stuff. |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
Well, they're comfy and can really improve the feel of some grips. They are basically the same as all the squishy grips based on the Dye Stickies, and they're a little cheaper. They come in candy colors if you like. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
They won't make every grip feel better, and they won't fit every grip. I wouldn't put them on my Tippmann 98, but I would put them on my PT Pro. Only I don't like big shiny logos on my stuff, so I use the "Basic" model Dye Stickies that don't have a chrome logo on them. When wearing gloves the stickieness doesn't really matter |
|
| Conclusion: |
If your grip sucks, this is one of many identical products you can buy to make it more comfy. |

Stickies, hogues, all sorts of grips |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
They're fairly comfy and do not fit poorly. Available in many colors. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Not very special either. Colors can get stained or dirty easily. Don't fit all gripframes (no grips do). |
|
| Conclusion: |
More colored grips. I suggest nobody buy ANY grips without seeing how they feel and fit on YOUR gripframe. That's the most important thing. After that, it's all cosmetic, and there's not accounting for taste. |

| Strengths: |
It looks pretty cool and some of it is sticky. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
It's not really soft. It's hard and only the sides are have the sticky plastic. |
|

It's ok, the grips that came with my Xtra was softer and more comfortable than this one. Either get dye stickies are use a stock grip. |

| Review: |
I have the Black 32* Gel Grips on my Nasty Impulse. I bought the gun used and they came on the gun. At first I enjoyed them since I had never used any other grips but once I started playing weekly, I realized they didnt really fit my style and were uncomfortable to hold when running. Mine are stiff and really dont allow for a comfortable grip while shooting my gun |
|
| Conclusion: |
If I could have decided between Dye Sticky 3's and the Gel Grips on my Nasty Impulse I would definitely get the Sticky 3's. IMO only buy these grips if you are tight on money.
I'm gonna go buy myself some Sticky 3's actually |

| Review: |
I purchased these grips to replace the stock grips on my M98C and since then have put them on my BKO.
The stock grips on the BKO were very uncomfortable, didn't seem like they would offer much grip. But then enter the 32 degree Gel Grips.
These grips are extremely comfortable compared to the stock grips and they don't cause your hand to slip, especially in the rain or when you have a lot of sweat (If you don't wear any gloves) on your palms.
The only one minor complaint I had was, on my M98C (When I owned one), I had a bit of a hard time getting these grips on, due to the holes not lining up exactly. But on my BKO, they lined up perfectly. This leads me to assume that the holes lining up may have to do something with the way your marker grip frame is constructed.
Overall I'd say the pros fair outweigh the cons and I have been happy with these grips. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Comfort at an affordable price...what more could you ask for? Get these grips if you are on a budget...you will not be disappointed. |

better then some stock grips like the panels |

not really worth the money,kinda hard in parts |
|
| Review: |
Ive used these on a timmy,2 impys,and a spyder ive used.
I thought the colors were pretty nice :) *look duke the colors*
they were on the hard side, and most of it wasnt a soft plastic material like they should be.
Its "gel" grips, not plastic grips with some injected gel sides, and a 32 deg. logo
If you want something just to upgrade from stock grips i guess these arnt to bad,but i would go with stickys, or wooden grips |

| Review: |
If your looking for a cheap grip upgrade this is the way to go. The finger groves are alot better than my stock grip frames. They fit just fine. Really easy to install, only four screws. They add a little custom color to your marker. Don't pay over $15 for them. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Not the best, but way better than stock and the hand cramps that come with stock. |
