| Is anyone running a grippod? Any pics of them on your rifle? It seems like a good idea. I hear they just got a contract with the ARMY. |
| I have tried a couple of verticle grips in the past and never liked. them. I wanted a lightweight bipod (like the one Glasser used to make) but to no avail. I got into one of these for $52. I went to the range with it twice and qualified with it once. I love it. on the longer shots the bipod is great. For close up cqb the grip is long enough that you can actually get your whole hand on it. As an added feature it is lot easier to clean. |

I have experience with the ALLOY version. I like it, although it is heavy and the feet have a tendency to slip on smooth surfaces.....skate board or grit tape helps. The Navy has purchased quite a few from a Virginia tactical company, but I do not think the polymer one is as popular. Nice product and if you look around you can find them at good prices. Well worth having if you are not using a Tango Down bipod or Harris bipod with Larue adapter.....both my favs. I use a Mike Rock SOPMOD Raptor bipod on my Springfield M14 SOCOM 2, and it does double duty on my LEO Colt AR15 with Diemaco LMG heavy barrel...... Here is a pic I found of a "current" issue Mk 18 MoO Navy CQB gun tricked out with Grip Pod.....looks like alloy one. http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee195/PCashmanHSL32/EODgun1.jpg |

Love it. Worth the money. How much will a separate bipod AND a good quality VFG cost you? I have the polymer version. Fast and incredibly stable when going prone, and being stable means I'm going to be that much more accurate. Quick to close back up. But that's just my opinion. - Cioppino |
So he took a piece of issued equipment off his issued rifle, and gave it to you? |
