So why is it, Magpul makes everything from stocks and rail covers to grips and magazines.

But they don't make a VFG???

They even make a transformer glock and a dune buggy laugh.gif

I know Tango Down makes some. And so does Larue. And CAA, and a few low end companies.

I need someone to jog my memory, who else makes them?

And who makes them in Olive Drab?

Don't know about OD, but GG&G makes a nice one and the grip pods are also nice...if you are needing something like that.

Didn't think of those, maybe because they cost about half a gun! bigsmile.gif Good choices though, I was being conservative really.gif

Could it be that since the TD version is such a superb VFG they have been focusing on mag production & other little plastic parts instead of putting another VFG on the market?

It would be nice to see em put one out, but heck, look how far behind they are oin production & how a year after it was introduced there BUPS (back up plastic sight) is still not available.

How good does the TD grip match the FDE stock?

EDIT: N/M, yours is black.

Anyone else know?
