shooter_rob Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 I am new to 3-gun and was wondering if the AR-15 verticle front grips are legal for limited or tactical? I know you can't have a bipod but I need to know if the front verticle grip is legal. thanks , ROb Jessee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Legal for Tac/Lim they are indeed. The practicality/usefulness of them is open to debate however. -- Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooter_rob Posted December 28, 2004 Author Share Posted December 28, 2004 George, Thanks for the help. I am new to shooting 3-gun and was just wondering. I have shot mine with and without it but I seem to like it on when I shoot from prone. Not sure how much prone shooting we will do in 3-gun but it really helps me. I am open for any suggestions. Thanks again, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 I am open for any suggestions Learn to shoot prone by mono podding on the magazine (30 rounders). I shoot open division and prefer a mono pod position over a bipod on occasion as it is just about as stable and very fast. To mono pod an AR, jam the mag into the ground, pull the buttstock down with the shoulder pocket, pull the forend down with the weak hand and the downward pressure on front and back will lock everything up nice and stable for you. Get a good sling too, I recommend the Viking Tactics one. -- Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattBurkett Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Get the AR mag basepads from http://www.arredondoaccessories.com/A_3gun.cfm Watch the downward pressure on the front end of your AR. Do some testing first to find out if it causes an impact change downrange. I don't care for the foregrips unless there is so much crap on your front end that you can't get a hold of it - IE: IR laser/Flashlight/Secondary sights etc... Good luck, Matt FYI Viking slings RULE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shooter_rob Posted December 29, 2004 Author Share Posted December 29, 2004 Thanks Matt and George, I remember seeing the base pads you mentioned. I am looking forward to getting into 3-gun shooting. Thanks again. DvC... Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
