You can mount any of the grips once you add a small rail to the bottom of the handguard. You simply take the lower half of the handguard off, bolt the rail on, and add the vertical foregrip. Lots of people make the add-on rails. Here are a few, but many types are for sale if you look around: www.jsesurplus.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=217 www.del-ton.com/Falcon_Industries_Rail_p/mt1013.htm ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=7&f=25&t=421533 I have tried the first kind, and they bolt on to be really sturdy and work great. They are a little long for just a grip, though. I just bought two of the last one from Derek (TheTic00 - great seller who ships fast), and they are on the way now, so I haven't tried them yet. (ETA: Got the CAA tri-rail mounts, and they bolt on to be very sturdy. I separated the twin 45-degree rails and the single rail and put the twin one on top for a flashlight. The single rail, I put on the bottom handgaurd for a VFG attachment. Both are very sturdy. They have enough short bolts in the bag to do this, but I had to come up with a few more M5 nuts to make it work. They are easy to install, and they feel tough.) If you want to go full-blown, there are lots of rail systems that replace your handguards, but they can be pretty steep. Here are some hanguards with a rail already on them: ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=7&f=25&t=470373 |
Here is another option for a great grip being used with a few hush-hush boys out there!  www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=124&t=369969&page=1Hope this helps. |
