The SCG (Shadow Crossover Grip) takes what we’ve learned from years of user feedback and adapts the ergonomics package of our CZ Adapter with palm swells into a single piece polymer design.
- Low weight – ~2.3 oz with hardware
- 16 degree grip angle for balanced ergonomics, leverage during manipulations, and long term operating comfort
- 1.445 inch maximum width with a tapered profile and flared lower ledge for improved hand placement, support, leverage, and control in all positions
- Two texture variations for varying applications
- Apex texture – minimally abrasive, Apex was designed for those who like hockey tape wraps or similarly smooth but still tactile finishes
- Atom (dot) texture – more bite, more traction, perfect for gloved hands or more demanding conditions (humidity, sweat, mud, etc.) *DAC Team Favorite*
- Optional storage capabilities supported with the addition of our FloorPlate (SFP)
Made in the USA – Full Lifetime Warranty

Okay… so when I read the description of the Apex grip was “similar to that of hockey tape” I was like “cool. Just less grippy. Perfect for my dainty office hands”
But gang… the Apex grip legit feels exactly like tape. I’m absolutely floored. From the palm swell, to the I can’t believe it’s not hockey tape texture, I cannot recommend this product enough. It’s just right. Couple this with an appropriately priced floor plate and you have the gold standard of AR grips in this overly saturated market.
10/10 would lick sweat out of any DAC grip.

Hands down my favorite grip I’ve ever purchased. The ergonomics, the feel, and the overall quality is through the roof. I primarily shoot a Shadow 2 for competition purposes, and to have a grip that feels the same on both platforms is very beneficial.
Having owned B5 grips, BCM, Magpul, this is hands down the best grip I own. I have two now, and this will be the only grip I put on my builds moving forward.

Hands down the best grip. As simple as that. I’m replacing all my K2s, BCM Mod 3s, etc. All of those are excellent products. The SCG is just better.

Best grip on the market, getting my second order in for my MDX. You will not want another grip after putting on the SCG.

I have owned and used many grips and none of them felt as natural as this one does. I fell in love with this the second I used it. Do you have large hands? Do you have long arms? Do you have 20” biceps ? If you do we have a lot in common. You will not regret this grip. Don’t let it discourage you. I believe this grip will make anyone and everyone happy. Perfectly contoured, natural grip angle, well designed, not too long, not too short, the right amount of grippiness. The beavertail isn’t overly aggressive and it flows nicely with your lower. I’ll never go back to other grips.

Absolutely love the SCG the ergonomics of the grip just feels like an extension of my hand. Perfect fit and finish! If you’re on the fence about what grip you want to run, I’d definitely say give one of these a try and you won’t be disappointed.

This is by far my favorite AR grip I’ve tried. Not even close. I have large hands and this is the only grip that not only works for bigger hands but clearly has a lot of thought put into the design and ergonomics. Definitely trying the other grips from DAC, their stuff is going on every build from here on out. Just pull the trigger

This is in every respect, the most perfect AR grip I have ever tried, and in my 50 years of shooting I have tried dang near every one. Fits my size XL hand great, and even works fairly well for my wife with her size XS hobbit hands, lol, so if you’re size small to X-large you should be GTG. Hand placement is intuitive and instant when doing slung-to-shouldered drills and dry fire, the grip basically forces my hand into the correct position without me having to adjust or think about it. The fit is snug but not so much that you need to beat on it to install. The fitment of the beavertail is perfectly snug and smooth to the curve of the receiver with no gaps (as it should be). The lines and texture and checkering are top notch and very very clean. This is an extremely well-thought out and brilliantly executed product. Would not hesitate to recommend. And believe me, i’m an old hard-a** and not easily impressed!

I’ve tried just about every popular grip there is on the market and this one is by far my favorite out of all of them. I typically don’t love grips with such a steep angle, but this one just works so well for me.
Just a few days before I got it, I put a MIAD on my favorite rifle and decided that was the perfect grip for me. So I was wondering how long it would take for me to just switch back to that since it’s more my style and was just so comfortable. But after bringing the SCG shooting and doing a bunch of drills with it, I don’t think I’m going to be switching back. It usually takes me a few days of shooting to make up my mind on something like that, but I was just so sure after the first day.
It’s just perfect for the rifle I put it on (13.9” ADM + criterion build) and it makes me feel much more confident during drills

I love the VCG grips, but this grip is on another level. I have a CZ Shadow 2, so I’m quite familiar with how good the grip is, but this one shocked me…I put my first one on a stripped lower I was getting ready to build, just to see how it felt. I did a quick one-handed snap draw and the rails of the lower were dead parallel with my line of sight. It melts into your hand, so much so, that you almost don’t feel it. No hot spots… 10 out of 5 stars. Time will tell on durability, but I’ve never had any issues with DAC grips. If you think it’s too expensive, compared to a Magpul or whatever other grip you think is good, just put one on your rifle. You’ll become a believer. Thanks, DAC, for developing this grip. Hands down my favorite.

Always wanted a polymer version of their CZ Grip Adapter. Immediately bought 2 when these polymer versions were announced. Have one on a precision AR10 and one on a short night fighting stick, it works equally well in both disciplines. They really did nail the ergonomics on this.
Thicc in the right places and textured where you need it. From A2s to ALL the Magpuls to Reptillia, the DAC Shadow Crossover feels like absolute Sex in my hand.
11/10 would do again.

After trying many different grips, I can finally say that I found my favorite! Great fit for my 12.5

This is, in my opinion, the perfect AR pistol grip for me. It’s somewhat similar to the Daniel Defense pistol grip in terms of width and ergonomics, and I ran that grip for years before getting tired of the tacky rubber features on it. This fills that same sort of size but feels more advanced and intuitive, and while having my favorite pattern- micro dots. 11/10 on this one, DAC knocked it out of the park.

Probably the best grip to date that DAC has released even though I have and love all of their grips. I just keep finding myself wanting to grab my rifle with this grip on it to take to the range. No surprise that DAC always finds a way to improve and bring new and better products to the market.

So. The grip’s design and aesthetics are fantastic, the texture is great, and quality, fit and finish are shockingly good. Price is more than reasonable for what you get.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t really fit my hand; too small, somehow. I took some measurements versus a b5 type-23, but the measurements don’t quite agree with how much smaller the SGC feels in hand. I have some guesses on potential adjustments, but I’d need to model and print something up to test them.
For reference, my hands are about 8 inches from palm base to end of middle finger, 3.6 across palms, and long skinny fingers that tend to wrap the first joint of support hand index around full sized pistol trigger guards.
Anyway. It’s really nice, and I can see how well it might work for someone it fits better; five stars. Might have to try the cz grip adapter version.

The palm swells are really what make this grip — really ergonomic and looks badass. I also love how the bottom of the grip is flat and perfectly perpendicular to the rifle, really finishes off the look .

This thing feels awesome! Can’t wait to put some rounds downrange with it on. I’ve been running primarily cz pistols lately and this is a very natural transition for me. I can see the module for lok grips in my future as well
Thank you!

Love the concept and execution. After running the ULCG the SCG seemed like a good progression. Feels like a hug in the hand. I went with the apex texture based on the aesthetics and it’s fine for grip. Like any other pistol grip really. I like how it sinks my hand nice and high in the backstrap to give a sense of control over the rifle, which this grips does better than other of similar design. And the flared portion midway down gives a little girth to hang onto for the bigger handed folks (That’s what she said).

Without a doubt the best grip on the market for your Ar’s. This company is a hard charger releasing these amazing products and their communication is top notch ! I can’t say enough great things about the SCG and the company !!

This grip just fills the hand so nicely. There’s no others out there with this kind of shape to it and it feels so nice. The angles perfect too. Went with the Atom texture for some extra tack and threw it on my mk12.. it ain’t coming off any time soon. Well done!

My new favorite grip. I’ll be a little bit before I can replace all of mine with this but it’ll happen. I had the VCG-L which is amazing, and i didn’t think they’d be able to out-do that grip but they have. Amazing

I wanted this grip as soon as it was posted and I waited for it. As soon as it was available I jumped on it fast because I knew they’d sell out quickly. But let me tell you!! It’s the best grip out rn no BS! The texture all the way down to the feel. It just sits flawlessly in the palm. The grip definitely gets my 5 star. Appreciate the great work keep it up homie!! Can’t wait to get them on all my rifles. Go get you one you won’t regret it.

Been looking for an upgrade for a while. Purchased the short stop a while ago and loved it. I couldn’t decide between the grips driven arms co makes. This grip dropped and I decided to bite the bullet, worse comes to worse I’d loose some money/resell it.
IT FEELS SOOOOO GOOD!!! Holy crap, literally never thought or imagined a grip could feel this great. The ergonomics of it perfectly contour my hand, almost like a reverse hug for my hand when gripping the thing. Haven’t been shooting with it yet so this could all change but in my opinion, for me, it was 100% worth it.
