Re: Where do you like your foregrip?

I mostly play in a bush environment, so i like to crawl into small spaces (fallen trees etc) so i prefer everything to be as tight and snug as possible

Re: Where do you like your foregrip?

I like it very close in. On my actual AR, for normal shooting, I use a magwell hold for my offhand, so I prefer to keep the foregrip as close as possible to this setup. It just makes everything so much easier.

I prefer the SpecOps foregrip to the vertical style.

Agreed. I have just installed the A5-A2 conversion w/ Dog-Leg, and I much prefer the handgrip. It gives just as much control during moving in close range engagements, but it is far better for prone shooting.

Re: Where do you like your foregrip?

I prefer something more like a handguard , it has the more natural feel of a rifle.

Yep. Love it too.

Now I have a Q-Loader and it has replaced the handgrip. It's ok, just sits a little lower.

Re: Where do you like your foregrip?

I want a Spec Ops handgaurd. However as a lefty im afraid the cyclone will interfear with my hand that holds the foregrip. Can anyone confirm if shooting with a left hand and using a foregrip is comfortable.

I imagine its only a slight diffrence.

I'm left handed and it worked great!
Being right handed with it would be a disadvantage in my opinion, since your fingers would be hitting the cyclone parts.

My right hand wraps the grip at sort of a 45* angle, and sits pefect behind and around the cyclone parts.
