    What could possibly go wrong from super lightening as much as possible? It's not like their rails will shear apar--oh. Right.

    Yea, they removed just a little too much material on their rail for my liking.

    Hand stop is not bad looking. Do you have shots of the vertical grip by any chance?

    I like the hand stop. VFG not so much. But then again, I'm not a huge fan of VFG's anyway.

    I think with the hand stop, it would depend on what hand guard it was mounted too.

    I'll save my final thoughts when I see them mounted onto a rifle but my initial thoughts think they look like crap. Fortis is trying to appeal to the tacticool crowd with these grips.

    I can't wait to see their item description on these things. Bet they say that they shaved off unnecessary weight by removing the material from the middle.

    Yeah, this seems to be a growing segment in the AR market. It's good for gun ownership, but I'll take function over looks myself.

    66 for the full grip on sale, 10 bucks less for the stubby.

    the arfcom mall ninjas will fill fortis' coffers with their hipster dollars. i'll continue using previous years' trends which function better and aren't as **** ugly.

    Curious about the strength, aluminum with all that missing material tends to be a little brittle.
