Good idea but... - Mission First Tactical React Folding Grip

JWest's Review of Mission First Tactical React Folding Grip
I bought one of these within a couple days of buying my first AR-15 rifle AR-556. When I bought this it seemed like it would be an awesome vertical foregrip. I liked that it had storage especially since the Ruger pistol grip doesn't have a compartment built-in from the factory. Having the ability to fold it up when using a bipod seemed like a great feature. In reality those are features I never really used. The push button to fold the grip gradually comes loose when the grip is folded up and down. The durability of the plastic is great I assume since most modern plastics are, but the pivot point is weak and it wouldn't take much effort or sideways force to break it off. It doesn't feel like it's going to last a lifetime. For the range it's probably alright. For 3 gun, competitive shooting I'm fairly sure it would break if it was pushed into a barricade or dumped into a barrel. I haven't been to war but I can say I absolutely wouldn't stick it on a fighting rifle. I primarily used a bipod at the range which limited where it could go on the quad rail,too far back it would hit the magwell when the rear pin was popped. It's a tight squeeze for your figers if it's on a carbine length drop-in rail to run it with a bipod. I typically don't carry anything in the grip storage compartments since I hate hearing the rattle. It's a cool idea but it doesn't stand up to other vertical foregrips on the market even with the price point taken into account.
Pros:
It folds
It's lightweight
It's made by a great company
Mounts on picatinny / weaver rails
Cons:
Polymer
Weak pivot point
Push button works loose when folding up or down
Storage plug can be easily lost
Large footprint for carbine handguards
Best Used for:
Best suited for the range
Would Recommend:
No
