    What's this new way of holding the rifle?

    I'm noticing in pictures lately that guys are holding the handguard differently. A right handed shooter for example, which holds the handguard with his left hand is pictured holding the handguard with his palm on the left of the handguard instead of on the bottom. What's up with that?

    I've been doing it since late 2005, so have a lot of people I know.

    WORSE!

    It's a way for instructors to lure students to spend their money learning something "new".

    The Costa beard during the "room clearing" is epic.
