A few weeks ago we gave you a gander at Mission First Tactical’s new foregrip and mentioned that they had several new designs on the way. They are manufactured using new materials from DuPont’s Military Plastics division.
Shown below is the Engage™ Tactical Pistol Grip, a pistol grip designed for the Stoner family of weapons (AR15/M16/M4 etc) with MFT’s own Tac Skin™ texturing. The design covers the receiver gap that causes discomfort during sustained usage. Secure watertight grip storage uses a captive plugged and has a foam block with quick access tab to diminish rattle.
Also shown is the Reactâ„¢ Magwell Grip. A lot of guys still use this hold as their primary despite having transitioned from the MP5 years ago. It isn’t wrong, it just isn’t the current preferred way to hold the carbine. Some say this grip allows for mid-point balance with less effort to direct muzzle. Additionally, there will be situations where you can’t grab to gun way out front. So this may be a good choice if you fit one of those categories. MFT has incorporated pressure pad wells to allow for accessory activation for both right and left handed shooters. Additionally, their design will not interfere with the magazine and there is a plugged secure water tight storage compartment for 2 x CR123 batteries.
Last, but certainly not least, is the first sighting of the Battlelinkâ„¢ Low Profile Stock prototype with the Garmin 401/301 Upper Mount. MFT considered the use of body armor in the design and it features an angled non-slip butt pad allowing for faster presentation. There is a pivoting rear accessed water tight storage compartment that has a foam storage block to diminish rattle. With 2 quick detach sling mounting points and an enhanced cheek weld. This product is still 2 months out from full production. Also, utilizing the accessory mounting provision they have attached a Garmin 401 GPS upper mount. This mount has been designed for the Garmin 401/301, is ambidextrous, and according to MTS, “has been over-engineered to ensure it is bomber and leaves no chance for your GPS to hit the deck.”
