    Interesting...

    Also, for those who like the Tangodown grip -- in between that setup and the regular grip is the TangoDown BG17
    TangoDown - Known for Vickers Tactical Upgrades for Glock. Our reputation for unique design and quality manufacturing of weapon components has earned us first choice when it comes to stepping into harm’s way.

      This could be a thread of it's own. I would be interested in reading more about this. If somebody would like to start one and add lots of information to it please PM me. I am having a hard time conceptualizing what you are saying. I've never experienced an issue with my trigger pull, at least not that I am aware of...but I use a different grip. I'm probably too distracted by the picture you posted to think straight. My brain stopped working.

      Also, who makes that trippy looking AMBI SAFETY shown in the picture above?

        But seriously though, interesting concept. I have similar feelings about the my trigger finger placement. I find that the Magpul MIAD grip with the bigger backstrap does the job decently for me though.


        Pic thread:

        Dear California,
        I love you. I was born and raised in you. You have given me some of the best times of my life. Now with that said, I can not wait to move!
        Your prisoner,
        Andrew J.

          It's an adapter that goes between the receiver and the grip to relocate it backwards:


          You can see it more clearly in the first photo posted with a less distracting background:


          Took the other photo off TD, but I think that safety is the B.A.D. A.S.S. configurable selector

            I figured out what the part did with regards to moving the grip back, I was having trouble understanding how it helps you out. I guess it forces you to outstretch your finger a little more so it is not curled up? I was curious to know if it is something all grips could benifit from, or just some of them, and if there were arguments against it. But if we go into all of that here the MODS will get mad because we are talking and not posting picks.

            I will definately checkout the B.A.D. A.S.S. configurable selector. This is the first time I have seen them. Thanks.

            And as for the picture with the girl, what do you mean there is a rifle in the picture? You're lying. I've looked at that picture 100 times and there is no rifle in that picture.

                Yep, you got it! It simply lengthens the distance from the back of the grip to the trigger, so folks with larger hands or longer fingers might find it more comfortable. (or another way to think about it, to force the pad of your trigger finger onto the trigger shoe)

                That BADASS selector has different types of levers so you can adjust length/profile, e.g. they have a short one for people who don't like having the ambi lever underneath their trigger finger. Also the profile is supposed to feel better, but I haven't tried one in person yet.

                    Picked up a new Eotech XPS 2.0 in a LaRue mount. If any one is interested in the top rifle in the picture, it is for sale/trade in the Market Place here (http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...d.php?t=371057). Please don't post offers or questions here as that ticks off the mods.
