Mine is rock solid on an LMT upper.
Mine's mounted on a 7" Daniel Defense rail and it's solid.

So's mine, and it's not rock solid. The roll pins have helped some.
One thing that I've thought about is that i mounted the VFG on a Surefire rail and remeber having to hammer it on there. Then I mounted it on my MRP. Maybe thats the crux of the problem.
I'm getting ready to set up a new M4 with and LMT upper and new TD VFG. Maybe that we'll be more satisfactory.? Regardless. i think anytime you mount thermo plastic to metal and seriously use it...there's going to be some wear and give. It only seems logical.
I'm really interested in a LaRue mount for the TD down grip because I know ahter using 5 other LaRue products that it will be Rock solid and 100% repeatable.
I had to hammer mine onto the LMT rail as well. I used a nylon hammer and did it with the buttons pushed in.
I had sent a message to Tango Down in regards to the grip. I recived an e-mail from Jeff Cahill and he is sending another one my way. I'll let you know how it goes.
BTW great customer service from Tango Down!
I recived a second VFG from Jeff at Tango down a few days back and was able to take it to the range today. The second grip has the same lateral movement as the first. After going through some range drills with a buddy, I was not able to notice any controllabilty issues with the rifle. The only time I really notice the movement is when I am actually messing with the grip.
I'm going to leave it mounted and continue using it. Every other aspect of the grip is outstanding and I am, all in all very happy.
Thanks for all the replies and thanks to Jeff at Tango Down!

Two that I've had have been a little wobbly on two different DD rails I've had and my friends TD is wobbly on his Troy also.
That's just how it goes...
It sure doesn't feel right...
Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball...
Got a TD vfg on a Larue rail, there is a bit of side to side wiggle but it did not bother me much... What bothers me is why this vfg costs 60+ bucks...
The new BOBRO vfg looks nice, its got a quick on quick off feature.
I have no regrets about my TD vfg, its just that my buddies are bragging about how cheap their airsoft knockoffs being 1/4 the price... and does the same thing... so they say![]()
