AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
I never liked the original bike grip, first thing I did was pull mine and toss my gear bag, been there for more than 10 years. I like this one a smig more than the original but it will never end up on a marker of mine. Just updating a previous post.
For a non originalor at least a general, non-specific grip you need to find something that works with in the design that is complimentary. The original RT i liked as you could flip it to be finger in or out.
Realistically, you can not find on design that would liked by all. At most, finding something that works, that is inexpensive and can be easily sourced is hard enough. Having options is ok, till you find the one person that doesn't realize that A, B, & C are the only things. Its fair better to narrow down the options in simple ways, like: hard(like the AGD single hole grips), soft or somewhere in between; then go from that.
Every other marker in existence uses a metal regulator as it's "foregrip." I would design something aluminum that would screw into the existing vertical adapter. Make it compatible with the Exalt grips (or include one) and call it a day.
Yes and yes! I had been drawing up a front grip that would utilize Exalt's Luxe grip - super comfy! Unfortunately my Solidworks licence expired and with it alot of my lofty Mag dreams. Still, a grip that used the Luxe or Shocker RSX rubber would be great (along with some matching Exalt 45 grips?)
You would expect Exalt to be eager to collaborate as it would mean more sales of a grip that is otherwise proprietary to one gun...
I think you guys kind of poo-poo'd the idea, but I still think there's merit to the 3d printed grip mold. Something like this has been on the backburner for a while:
Try not to be too beholden to other people's crap if you can just make your own...
