Well now, I never said anything about it making sense ...that's just the explanation I remember being attached to the picture.

EDIT:
This isn't where I originally saw it, but this is what my quick google search came up with:
http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2009/07/06/interesting-placement-of-m16-carry-handle/

**I don't read the blog or know who writes it, so I have no idea if he's right or not, I'm just linking to it for the picture.

From the picture they had other optics mounted and that the iron sights was just storage for easy access (in the infantry you only have so many places to put stuff) incase the primary optics failed, tiy can see he is holding a front grip w/ his week hand. Iron sights are prety durible and there is always acuracy by volume of fire if necicary or just adjust the sightd if they are that bad but I'm just guessing.

Don't try to church it up :innocent0

hey how much do those suppressors run for? I also have wanted to try these forward grips because I always hold the magwell and know it is not the best thing to do but it's whats comfratible (probably out of bad habit) to me and I shoot well like that and was concidering getting a verticle grip and putting it all the way back on the rail till I saw the magpul grips

Im upset they changed the design. The new AFG2 does not feel the same to me. I need to pick up more older ones before they are gone.

AIM has a few left. just ordered one myself.

The YHM 7.62 Suppressors Run right about $700 with one mount. You can probably save $50 if you shop around.

If you havent tried this setup your welcome to give mine a run at the next shoot.

Beautiful rifle....I like that setup. I need to check out one of these magpul grips, Im not big on the verticle grips and this might be what Im looking for. I also like the eotech and magnifier...I need to check one of those out too, Im curious of how the magnifer works and i dont think the internet and videos do it justice.

Any dealers in the area with an AFG2 in stock? :shrug:

kgain673 · Feb 16, 2011

It's just another polymer moneymaker Magpul makes you believe you need, stop drinking the Koolaid. I have some Magpul stuff, so I'm not totally innocent.

I have one on my M4 I love it. I have a video take a look.

I have the AFG2 and like it a lot. I have Midwest Ind.'s 12" quad rail, which isn't as thin as a DD rail, so I opted for the 2nd Gen version of the AFG to manage how wide the gripe is. I find it very comfortable and I feel like I have a lot of control of the rifle. My previous setup was a vertical grip and thumb-break method where my thumb was between the top rail and the left rail. That setup, while very controllable, left me feeling like my fingers were being constantly twisted and pinched. With the AFG, I run with my thumb in-line over the top rail. My fingers are pinched and nothing feels over extended.

Anyone rocking one of these on a SCAR? If so please share photos. Seems a bit odd holding it in that position.

I put an AFG2 on my Draco and I'm loving it! Took some warming up to get used to, but now I appreciate it for what it is; a simple and ergonomic alternative to a vertical foregrip. :thumbsup:
