Good enough, could be improved

Review for
Magpul Industries M-LOK Angled Fore Grip
Pros:
It does what I bought it for - keep my arm off the hot handguard and to give me a slightly better grip for less arm fatigue.
Cons:
1. It's too short. If I try to fit my whole hand in between the front and the back, it barely squeezes in there.
2. It's too narrow. There is a gap between your hand and the handguard. Why not make this thing wider to give you a better grip by giving more of your palm something to rest on?
3. The backrest needs to be taller. If you are holding this with your whole hand on the grip, your hand can slip off the back.
Those complaints aside - this works if I grip it with my index finger in front of the grip, like another reviewer suggested. This is the only way where I feel my hand isn't going to slip off the back. It's a little further out than would be ideal, but still better than stock and this lets you pull it into your shoulder.
I see they fixed the width complaint in the V2, but they ruined what made this one good. I think if the V1 and the FAB Defense model had a baby, it would be foregrip bliss. This grip is good enough, but it could be better.
