Vertical foregrip and RIS for AR-15

i bought a RIS second hand from some guy at Fort Bragg a while back and was lucky--by that i mean that it fit my rifle OK...Had it been a RAS it would have not fit.....it came with the handle you mentioned and i guess for a house clearing exercize or something like that it would be ok but in my 3gun matches i have not seen a need for it....The RIS will fit most rifles in that it is secured in the rear like a regular set of forarms and in the front by a thing that grabs hold of the part of the rifle that holds the forward part of the forearm.....the RIS is not secure enough to mount aimpoints on and that's why the RAS came into being-they mount in a different manner and require a barrel of M4 diameter so they can attach more securely and hold a point of aim for something like an aimpoint....Hope this helps....Dick
 
Gizmo,
As far as the vertical grip goes I don't know but I like the feel of the Stoner with the free floated tube and ventilated Handgaurd and 4 rails. It is very light and I still need to get used to the lighter barrel weight.
As for www.impactguns.com that is where I get most of my stuff, great bunch of guys and they will beat anyones price. Attached is my M4 Stoner

If I looked at the web site correctly, that's $300 for a new handguard and vertical grip? :eek:

Or 2k (+) of ammo for the same $300.

Thanks guys, but I'll stick with my old style and just practice more.:p

Well, RikWriter
I guess we are still the only kids on the block with way cool handgaurds :rolleyes:

Gizmo, you think the Handgaurd was pricy....try the complete Stoner M4 :eek:

If you really wanted the vertical grip there is another mounting method that is about $17.00.
Let me know.
