Like another reviewer stated, the design isn't great. As you tighten the screw, the two-piece grip starts to split side to side. The leather is holding the sides together at that point. I'm not going to give up on it though. I may break it down and epoxy the two halves together if that is possible. I got the light tan "natural" version as the dark brown was out. I used a heat gun and Sno-Seal, then Mink oil which gave it a much nicer, richer look. The grip feels nice and offers plenty of purchase. Not sure if that would be true if it got wet. I like the storage option though it is small. Two 5.56 rounds will probably fit. It just needs to be built in one piece or use some sort of fasteners to hold the two halves together. If my epoxy trick works I'll re-review it. I mean, it works and it would probably get some props at the range, but I wouldn't want to depend on it long-term. If I decide to make one of my ARs a wall-hanger behind the bar, I might put it back on then. On a gun-wall it would be sharp. I don't have a gun-wall. Yet.

Just installed, not been out test it as of yet. Overall looks great with the leather wrap, held in place by a set screw inside the grip. Leather appears to be a simple replace if or when needed, I'd just add some paracord when time comes. Not sure how long the leather will last. Looks and feels good.

Ordering the Hera dark brown leather grip was no problem. Package arrived quickly with no blemishes or issues. I installed without a problem on my Spike's Tactical Jack-10. The grip got nothing but compliments as far as looks are concerned. I liked the look and feel as well. I did not like the polymer since it had a bit of wiggle. So nothing technically wrong with it, looks great, performs fine, personal preference will be to swap out for an aluminum grip.
Pros:
- Looks great , Easy installation
Best Used for:
- Looking awesome at the range and social media.
Would recommend: Yes

This grip is really nice in the hand and the leather wrap isnt just nice to look at but fully functional, as it feels good in the hand. Unfortunately it didn’t fit my Ruger AR556..when installed it interfered with the safety. So I had to send it back..
Pros:
- Looks and feels good in the hand
Cons:
- Interfears
- interferes with the safety on my rifle
Would recommend: No

Concept is good and I really like the fit and function of the similar VFG. The issue is the poor design. The two halves are secured together by the leather wrap. When you tighten the grip down sufficiently enough to remove any play, it begins separating the halves and creates a gap.
Cons:
- feels cheap
- Tightening compromises structure
- Notable seam in middle
Would recommend: No
