To snatch grip or Not to snach grip . . . .

MMM pred thats what i wanted to hear...ult required?

danm this or devil....we shall see.

Nope. In fact, you don't want to use it. Reduced recharge, AND the retro kickback is needed for the frame to function correctly.

This is why the Classic valve may not work either (though testing may show it to have enough reset force as well).

Don't worry you Alpha guys (Pay attention here warbeak ), the sear is not the problem, the foregrip mount is.

Custom work will be available so you all don't have to ditch your beloved Alphas (though you will have to spend some money).

In reality, said custom work could also be done for regular classic rail users as well, but it will likely cost more than a new stock RTP rail and sear (this is just speculation, as I don't even know what exactly I'm going to do there yet, but I'll figure something out. ).

Sorry guys, I just couldn't fit everything into the tiny form factor I had been using.

i must be stupid or something for missing something this big but this will be an electro frame?? and will this work with the 2005 karta body and rail? i know its the emag rail but it wasnt listed.

EMag rail = RTP rail (for all intents and purposes) and the Karta body is a slug derivative.

So yes, no problems there.

And yes, you did miss something big if you didn't realize this was an electro frame. :rofl:

The foregrip mount eh? Something to do with the lpr? I don't understand lol, but I am happy I can keep my uber light Alpha.

Well, long story short:

For balance and ease of walking the trigger, the whole frame has been pushed forward, and the guard has been widened up front to the tune of about 3/8 of an inch. This in turn puts the front of the trigger guard right over the classic foregrip mount hole. Soooooo, I'll have to build you a new mount for the VA, which moves the foregrip farther forward.

If you have an Alpha, I have already decided how I'm going to do it. It will be pretty slick, and shouldn't cost a horrible amount of money.

Stay tuned guys . . . . . .

well what about dallaras..its already a tight fit so will it work or not?

Dallaras use classic rails, so they won't work without the above mentioned custom VA mount.

Its doable, but it will be more expensive.

Now, a Dallara body on an RTP style rail will work just fine, without any modification.
