| I've been looking and I see a wide variety that range in price. I like the idea of having a storage compartment for batteries. I just don't want to buy one and find that it doesn't lockup tight on my DD rail. |
| Personally, when I use a vertical grip I use a KAC (it came with my RAS) and have been happy with it. Although I hear these are pretty fuggin nice. |

After two advisor tours in the Ramadi/Fallujah/Thar Thar area, I've found that the bulky built-in bipod things are too outrageous and bulky for real work; the Knights Armament grip, that is just a basic grip, is light, unobtrusive and serves its intended purpose. On long dismounted patrols, it served to rest on a strategically placed mag pouch and, combined with a 20-round mag of Mk 262, nestled nicely when walking or running. Three other mags were HKs and the rest were GI...but I digress. The most basic, cheapest, and durable looks to be the KAC, although not as glamorous to impress the wannabee neighbors in the gun room. |
| I forgot about the stubby one...which, I suspect might be even better; as for the batteries....when has anyone here been on a mission long enough to run through a set of batteries? I went through one set, which were actually used only a few fleeting moments here and there, and thrown away still charged at the end. Carry cigarettes inthere instead; we are all smokers when times get hard... which grips store extra smokes and a shot of whiskey? |
