So let's hear it, what do you keep in your grip storage; batteries, pocket knife, an extra few rounds, shoelace, slim jims?
Do they sell kits for storing in a pistol grip or foregrip and if not would there be a market for something like this? |
|
I have the CR123A grip core for both my MIADs. Each holds two CR123As.
|
|
i custom molded a flesh light into mine. you know for those long range trips
|
|
|
Batteries for my flashlight in my MOE grip.
I did have Starburst in my TD stubby VFG, but I got hungry one day.
|
|
stripper clip spoon and a small bottle of machine gunner's lube.

Haha, the slim jims part was a joke, I never thought someone would actually have some goodies to eat in there I think it would be cool to have a small first aid kit or gun repair tool and parts repair kit to have for field use, you never know what you might need (like firing pin, brush, lube, etc). |

Now that I think on this a little more, I'm surprised that no one has come up with (or at least I haven't seen) a rail-mounted storage compartment of some sort.

Three allen wrenchs for everything on the rifle, sight tool cut from a Wolf case, a breath drops bottle full of Mobile 1, and a strip of velcro to keep it quiet and for JIC.
|
|
Small torx head wrench for larue mount rings, allen wrench for b.a.d. lever, spare battery for leupold, and little bottle of lube.

I can understand carrying spare parts and repair tools if you're taking a class or OPERATING in an AO. But for me, if my CARBINE PLATFORM WEAPON SYSTEM goes down, it just goes back in the case and I bring the water jugs in a little closer so I can shoot them with my pistols. (Starburst get stale after a while in the VFG, so they may not be best for tactical snacks!)

I've got five carbines and a 20" A2 rifle most of them have just air in them.
On my main two carbines the one with an Aimpoint only have five extra rounds in my MIAD grip, the battery for the optic is inside my LaRue cantilever mount. With my carbine with an EOTech it got optic batteries in the MIAD grip core and a small lube bottle in the VFG. |
|
Batteries for my lights/optics and foam ear plugs to keep everything quiet and in case someone forgets theirs.
|
|
Nothing. I don't need any extra weight on the actual firearm.
|

Quoted: Batteries for my lights/optics and foam ear plugs to keep everything quiet and in case someone forgets theirs. That's a really good idea. Going to do that now. |
|
Cool, I like that. condoms and a safety whistle

Copy of my Form 1. that's what's in mine....I do like the ear plug idea |
|
Contact lens case with two 2032 batteries for my Nightforce.
|
|
Batteries for my light and aimpoint. Eventually I'll get an IMOD and move the batteries there and keep a spare bolt in my grip.
|
|
This for me as well. |
|
A joint and a single strike-anywhere match. Just kidding.
Actually I keep two CR123 batts in my MIAD grip for the Surefire, and one CR123 batt in the VFG for my EoTech. |
|
One has ear plugs, a battle bottle full of Mobil 1 (used up all of the machine gunners lube and a front sight wrench.
My other Miad grip has a reduced copy of my Form 1, battle bottle like above, and ear plugs. |
|
|
boresnake and a spare set of ear plugs. I used to keep a bolt/firing pin but it never stayed put and always rattled around.
|
|
nothing. used to have a couple CR123s, but the cover on my MOE grips come off too easy.
|
|
2xCR123A
2xpair earplugs Small bottle of CLP Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

So many good ideas in this thread. I never even thought to store earplugs and things in there. Brilliant.

Batteries for optic, cloth and optic overs. Sometimes spare screws and small allen keys.
