Any plans for offering a polymer finger saver for those of us who don't run forward grips on our SBRs ?

No fingers = No twinkies

I'd snag the KAC PDW one. It's not cheap but it's designed exactly for what you're doing.

$60 for a hand stop that includes a QD swivel ($20?) is pretty darn cheap.



I was considering selling mine and keeping the swivel, but i managed to find a use for it.



It's made of a aluminum (extra weight), and the KAC mounting bracket can be uncomfortable on the fingers.  I'd get a Magpul polymer version if possible.

ERGO makes one, as well. It's polymer and around $5.00.

I'd have to take a dremel to that abortion! I looks like a tactical hang-your-rifle-on-a-nail device.

Seems silly.  I always used my front sight post to hang my M-16 by a nail.  

But, the ERGO stop looks really silly.  Might as well buy a normal VFG, saw out the middle bit and epoxy it back together.

What do you expect for $5.00?

Exactly. Looks like wouldn't even clamp down well, then snap off later.

I have a 3.5" from Spike's and it's pretty stubby and works really well and is billeted aluminum (I don't know what "billeted" really means, but it sounds good).

it means that it was milled out of a billet(block) of aluminum

Is that the handstop from Ace, with some sort of rubber cover?
