Great grip - FAB Defense Gen-II Vertical Foregrip w/ Integrated Adjustable QR Bipod

Texas First's Review of FAB Defense Gen-II Vertical Foregrip w/ Integrated Adjustable QR Bipod
I purchased this grip for my SR-762. My experience with grips is from my service in the 504th Infantry, 82nd AD and fighting 3 tours in Iraq. When you’re in a gun fight you’re ability to perceive and respond to a threat happens in milliseconds. In Iraq the conditions are extreme and it’s the ultimate testing ground for equipment. Hitting a drop zone at the rate of decent of 12.48 mph is another benchmark. As the saying goes, nobody can break something better than an Infantryman. In terms of combat equipment we were pretty spoiled in the 82nd AD. Our unit funds were unlimited so I never had to purchase all the extras for my standard issue items such as fore-grips and Oakley sunglasses. I probably burned through a couple dozen sets of Oakleys on the Army’s dime but not so much on fore-grips which were run of the mill Magpul’s. Since Iraq, veterans who fought have inundated the market with improvements from their real world experience. This fore-grip is a prime example of someone who knew what they were doing. The engineering is intuitive and thoughtful. The ability to add a pressure switch to the side is a nice touch though I might have made that vertical instead of horizontal, and more compatible with the larger Surefire taclight switch. I go with what I know which is what served me best in combat. I have Trijicon optics, Surefire illumination, Magpul stocks & mags, and I feel comfortable enough to add Fab Defense to that list. Time will tell how the mechanics stands up to practical use but so far so good. There is a break in period. It’s not a small grip like Magpul so probably best for larger caliber rifles like my Ruger SR-762.
Pros:
intuitive design
swivel
preasure switch mount
Cons:
Kinda large
Best Used for:
Rifles
Would Recommend:
Yes
