ok so i starting to get pissed at my phantoms M16 grip frame. my intent is to make a "Sniper Rifle" to scare newbs...i have one of two options.

i can get a custom grip made to ressemble a PSG1's gripbase price is 35. plus id imagine some extra cause of the dificulty of the design ( how much extra i dont know?) ofcourse id get laser engraving ( + ?$) plus shipping my current frame to and fro to ensure proper fit... ( atleast 10 each way)

as opposed to 45 grips ( 35 + engraving & shipping) and i buy the basic frame some where, atteach a simple T stock and leave the future open for more changes with the standerad grip frame...

here is where your opinions as players is needed, which do you think is a better idea? try and make a whole new grip or buy one of these

and then throw on a couple of Shartleys grip panels and leave room for changes in the future...

Buy one. That way it won't fall apart later. Also, the manufacturer should be able to make it fit your idea perfectly. If not, he should fix it.

Just my .02

Goodluck with it
