86 or 45 Frame for the S6 - Page 2

I prefer the 45 myself so that is how I voted lol. It is most definately a need to try both deal before you purchase or go with what you know IMO.
Best of luck to you.

any info on them? Where we can pick them up all that good stuff.

They come with the S6 now. You may be able to buy them direct from CCM if you call.

This S-5 had a 86* frame on it when purchased. Now it is sporting a S-6 .45 frame and the fit & feel is MUCH better IMO.

My SV had an 86* slider with Hogue's, My S6 has a 45* with Hybrid grips, and my Sniper has an 86* with delrin panels. Honestly, the 45* is my favorite. The 86* is nice, but I find I MUCH prefer it with the Hogue's. The panels are far too thin for my tastes. Try before you buy...

I love the 86 frame. Extremely comfy to play with, nice and tight with a tank.

i have both frames and prefer the 45 over 86 but not by much....having the gun too close sometimes is uncomfortable...i find using a 45 frame and a 45 tank is more comfortable than an 86 frame w/ a 45 tank....
