        Sam, it is indeed 3/4 inch longer than the old style.

        Personman, that sure looks similar although on a Classic. But yea Bicycle is Bicycle I guess.

        They are comfy I will tell ya that though. It will suprise you.

          Yes that is about what they gonna look like. Unless Tom has something else up his sleeve. But initialy that is what you will see as the ULE RTP.

              I realy cannot say Kev. I would have to take one of these apart and look and see to know for certain. I do know what they weigh. I did weight one of them. With the SS line, Bottom ASA, Barrel and all on it and just like you see it they weigh in at 3.0 Pounds.

                  I like the original forgrip. Even further back I'd like to get rid of the sheetmetal and go back to milled/annoed aluminum from the old school RT.

                    And of course there is always someone who thinks EVERYTHING is ugly. Many said that about the old RT P grip which I also liked and defended. And I was a bit skeptical of this one. But now that I have had a chance to "Feel" it and not be clouded by "looks" I have to say I am impressed with it. Maybe you should do as I suggest and actualy feel one in your hand?
                    Wait a second, how come you can use the sear included with the xvalve in a stock rail? I probably should of said RT Pro Rail, not the classic rt rail with the air holes.

                    If the chance comes up where I can hold one, I gladly will, but personally, I don't really care that much...Also, I'm not sure where you got the impression that I thought EVERYTHING is ugly, but sorry if I don't worship every design agd comes out with...

                    In my opinion, the Classic Rt's look much better, I'm not big on the whole un-polished SS thing going on the Rt Pro.

                        Mine came with one!

                        I got my RTP about 2 weeks ago. So far I really like it, and it looks more solid and of a better quality than the previous foregrip (I never actually have held the other).

                          Because it uses a sear pin arrangement. This and the Emags use a sear screw to hold them in. Different sear.

                          If the chance comes up where I can hold one, I gladly will, but personally, I don't really care that much...Also, I'm not sure where you got the impression that I thought EVERYTHING is ugly, but sorry if I don't worship every design agd comes out with...

                          I didn't say you thought everything was ugly. I said SOMEONE Always thinks everything is ugly. As in you cannot ever please everyone. Try not to take it personaly. Many said that of the old fore grip. It was a chief complaint that they didn't like it. While I and some others liked it. And this redesign was a majority vote on so called improvement. A majority wanted this new one verses the old one. Even then I liked the old one better. Until I finaly did get it close and hold it. Now I am a bit more warming too it. That was the purpose of this thread was to revisit that and tell you I am a bit more inclined to like it when I had it up close. As far as you apologising for not worshiping everything I realy have no idea where you think you need to do that...

                          In my opinion, the Classic Rt's look much better, I'm not big on the whole un-polished SS thing going on the Rt Pro.

                          Classic RT? You mean the old style one? I did too. And I not that fond of the SS parts niether. I believe I already said that.

                              Sadly, I have only dry fired it. I haven't been able to make it to the field yet, as I just recently moved and my new job is training me on weekends, then school over the week. I should be able to give it a go come the beginning of October.
