    Best looking mag without a forgrip?

    As the title says. What's the best looking and functional mag options out there without a forgrip present? I'm looking to put together a light mag with a Ygrip and a drop forward but no forgrip present since my front hand always hangs on to the on off asa anyways. Trying to shave all the weight that I can. Push come to shove I may go the route of a ule mag body and ultralite rail. Idk.

    why does it matter? for most people, a functional automag will have a foregrip of some sort so your question is moot. do whatever is right for you!

      Question is not moot since as stated I don't plan on having a forgrip on said marker. And since basically all that I see picks of have a forgrip I figured I would ask the question.

            ...but what difference does it make? are you looking for ideas? you're asking for something that very few people have, so you're not likely to get much of a response. i only have one out of the dozens i've had, so here you go i guess...

                  Well if your looking for weight savings and never planning to add a foregrip. A lukes ultra lite rail that is cut at the front of the triggerframe would be about the lightest. You'll need to check were the ule cuts are to make sure that will be a nice place to cut.

                    What is that finger grip on the front?

                    Blackdeath, if you search for "pistol mags" you will find lots of options without foregrips, but understand that almost all of these will be meant to work as pistols. That doesn't sound like the same thing you're going for.
                    Plus, I don't recall seeing any of the pistol mags done with a y-grip. So yours will definitely have a different flavor than the others.

                    the McFly mags also don't have foregrips, but that's because they don't have rails.

                      FAB Defence VTS. You can get them on eBay. Perfect for a pistol. Got one on my SA-17 too.

                          Back in the day I never used a fore grip on my Mag but my bottle was in a ring cradle and sat way forward under the gun. If you want short and compact then go with an AM/MM length rail for sure.

                            I would have to have an ASA without an on/off knob. I've bumped a knob mostly off when crowded behind a bunker. A CP direct mount ASA is about as simple as they get.

                              That looks like an old mid 90s nitroduck rig there. I remember those. And that position is a lot like how I hold mine. Except the front of my on off is where your hand is.

                              As for the asa. I use a cp mini pro on off. I love it and haven't ever had an issue with it.
