What if any are the advantages of the front vertical grip.

Less likely to burn yourself or let the heat get to your hand when you're doing a lot of shooting.

It's just another way to hold the weapon. A VFG can make it easier to rapidly move from one target to another.

it's technically better for your wrists and it gives you some storage usually

I have a lens cloth and wrenches fro my different optics

Three gun guys say they are slower than just holding the barrel in sort of a shot gun grip. It does give you an index point to make sure your grip is the same. I think it helps retain the carbine in a struggle. It also seems to make it easier to hold for long periods

+1 It also seems to help me get back on to target more quickly.

I shoot in SWFL the regular handguard was never so hot I couldnt hold it!
But I never shoot over 500rds in 1 day


To the OP

I have a KAC FVG & KAC RAS  on my GO TO LMT D2000 M4

My Spare/Back Up LMT M4
Just has the  standard LMT M4 handguard  & BUIS  w/   IFFYOTECH 551F or 1-3x 20mm  Weaver scope



I use a MAGWELL HOLD  works great


And dont llisten to the dumb butts who say they are worried about a Kaboom when useing a MAGWELL HOLD


I even use  my 30 round mags as a rest
I do put a rubber dust cap on the bottom to prevent wear on the floor plate.



BTW main reason I bought a KAC VFG & RAS   was just to HANG A LIGHT and the FVG helps alot when I want to hit the Surefire Light
