Interestingly enough the AFG Travis is showing off at SHOT is also hand stippled! There is video on arf com.

Haven't seen any pics of the VFG on the Vltor CASV so I thought to post some pics.
I was worried that I might have to trim down the VFG due to the CASV's profile, but there was no problems at all. I have small hands so I was concerned about that too, but again no problem either. Like many have said, I also think some stippling or grip tape would be great. I haven't been to the range yet but I'm looking forward to testing it out. The VFG is way better than a VFG but then what do I know? I'm just a mall ninja
OK. So after all that reading, my question has not been answered.
Exactly how many slots does the AFG take up?
E=mc^2+/-3db

I placed the AFG and UTG rail on yesterday (I had the MOE handguard but didn't really dig it). Really like this grip...I've since moved it up a bit more to accomodate my monkey arms. Locks in really well and has a lemon-fresh scent that makes my wife love me more and my kids listen. Also makes coffee in the FDE version...so I hear.
Pictures as soon as my computer quits being a full retard.
Let's go if we're going.
Mine came in a few weeks ago from AIM, but I've been busy enough that I didn't have time to do anything with it until today.
The Guinea pig I'm using for AFG experimentation is my 9mm carbine that wears a 13" TRX Extreme rail. I've never tried a VFG on this one, but was considering a handstop of some kind when the AFG was announced.
I mounted a rail section and have been messing with positioning. I'm having a hard time figuring out where it feels best - right now the front is just shy of 11" out, and I think this works. I'll keep playing with it.
I'm not sure how the ergonomics are going to work for me, though. Gripping the AFG with my thumb over the top of the rail is putting a lot of tension on the outside of my wrist. I'll play with it some more, but it may not work for me. It's a nicely made piece of kit, though!
One thing I'm playing with is forefinger position. For some reason wrapping my forefinger around the front of the tab works slightly better than keeping all my finders on the AFG. In this case there's rail in front of the AFG, but I'm not sure I want to get used to doing this in case I chose to adopt these and put one on a shorter rail.
