THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
i was told today that having a VFG on your ar15 was an "evil part" i laughed out load. i was told its illegal to have one, but its not enforced. and was told an AVG was the only legal front grip to have. so i looked up the laws again to see if something has been changed and i saw an updated version of the bill. but nothing containing to extras that are put on a rifle.. could anyone shed light on this. this seems quit silly, but then again the entire AWB "evil parts" are silly as well.

thanks

Did they mean VFG's on pistols, or rifles?

Does the person you were talking to know any, or spouting talking points? It sounds like latter.

What state are we talking about? Not illegal on the federal level; but different states, different laws

Not illegal under federal law. If you put it on a pistol, it makes it Any Other Weapon, an NFA violation.

Only if it is under 26" I believe.

That'd be one big pistol if it wasn't...
