I saw this in an email from Cheaper than Dirt this morning, but the video was posted by the NRA itself.
The speaker in the video proposes a new method for women to grip a rifle, in particular the AR-15, that is claimed to reduce the bicep's role and incorporate the shoulder and back muscles more. The idea is that this grip may be easier for women as it distributes the load over more, stronger upper body muscles.
Watch the video for a clear explanation of how the grip looks and works.
Does anybody think this is a good idea? What are the downsides of using a grip like this? Is it better to continue using the standard grip?
