Metal version Grip Pod. Yeah, leans towards big and bulky, and not cheap, but mine has yet to let me down. Honestly not a huge fan of “combo” gear, and of all my guns, only one has one (coz it’s a beastly EOD Mk18 Mod0 clone), the rest are either/or affairs.

Personal opinion, none of them work very well as a bipod or a VFG. This means you’re stuck with a heavy, bulky piece of equipment that doesn’t really do anything well.
I’d skip it and spring for individually separated components. |

In my experience bipods work better (more stable & steady) the farther towards the end of the barrel it is installed. Imagine using a 30 round magazine that extends from the magazine well as a bipod. It would be much more unsteady & wobbly in comparison to supporting the rifle at the end of a relatively long handguard. For that reason alone, I wouldn't use a VFG/bipod combo.

I have one, use it on my m17s so it's not serious equipment but does the job.
I also have a basic bipod(can't remember the brand)and it works better. |

Decided against the VFG bipod combo. However, I have used a 30 round mag as a bipod if you will on 1 of my 16" barrel ARs. Works for punching paper lol. Ideal? No way. :) |
