<- not a fan. Would have to shoot with one. I'm VERY accurate using the 90* vertical grip on my 11.5" AR.

Has anyone found any colors other than black yet?
I understand the discussion regarding running this on a mid-length rail vs. a carbine length and how it accomodates individual body size. What I don't understand is how it would make a difference if you were running an AFG, a traditional vertical foregrip, or just a straight carbine length rail with covers? If your arms are so long that it is not comfortable it is not a function of the add-on grips, it is a function of the carbine length being too short. Would you not want to go to a mid-length system to fix that problem?
Think RussD was looking for a certain shade of pink . . . .
I dont thnk people are thnking this accessory through. From my perspective it not made for a Carbine handguard equipped gun, even if it has rails.
I dont even think its optimal for a midlength forend. I put 12" or longer rails on my serious use AR's when I reach out my hand is 1" short of the end of the 12" rail. Midlesgth are too short, now you have to consider that Ive been trained by MAgpul Dynamics so I shoot like Chris Costa teaches. I drive the rifle straight out and square off to the target. Whn I shoot my M4 with my armor on the stock is completely collapsed and my nose almost touches the charging handle.
I hear what you're saying. I'm running it on a LWRCI M6A3 which is a mid-length, but I do not have long arms either. I haven't tried it on a carbine length AR, but I did try it on the SCAR to see how it felt- it was a no go for me, but the SCAR doesn't have enough forward rail length in my opinion either.
Prior to using the AFG, I've been running primarily stubby verticals, but I use them with the thumb foward grip with my hand on the rail. I have also always run my verticals as far forward as possible to assist in driving the gun. From my perspective, the pro of vertical is the ability to use it brace on barricades (which can also be a con ). The biggest con for me has always been the problems it creates in the prone particularly when shooting off an improvised rest like a ruck or assault pack. The AFG sort of addresses all these issues. The only question mark for me is how good that hand stop will be for barricade work.
Kev, whats the correlation between a handstop and barricade work?The only question mark for me is how good that hand stop will be for barricade work.
