Pistol grip storage

[cartmanfan15]

So built my first ar today with a pistol grip. Just curious, what do you store in yours? I know some put batteries or things like that, but I don't have optics, flashlights, or lasers. Thinking maybe an Allen wrench for my bolt rifle scope, maybe extra earplugs?

what do you store in yours?

Absolutely nothing.

I don't carry my AR "in the field", so everything most guys carry in the tiny compartment I carry in my range bag.

I'm planning on carrying a reduced size copy of my stamped form 1 in mine.

I know some guys that will roll them up and put them in the storage tubes in their stocks (ACS/VLTOR, etc).

I do that with my SOPMOD stock. I usually pack the pistol grip with foam ear plugs. Seems like every time I go out to shoot, someone forgot their ear protection.

I have a Magpul grip. I store an extra set of weapon light batteries as well as about 3 years worth of Aimpoint batteries.

Ear plugs, and an Allen wrench.

An extra bolt and firing pin will fit in there. Just sayin'.

 

[esrice]

about 3 years worth of Aimpoint batteries.

So you're saying you don't store any optic batteries, right?

Sight adjustment tool.

 

[nipprdog]

Red Dot battery in mine. Ear plugs sounds like a good idea, since I'm becoming more forgetful as the years pass.

I bought an Ergo grip a couple months ago, and there was a little not in the compartment stating that Ergo doesn't reccomend carrying anything in the grip handle(or something like that )

Nothing, I don't like the weight.

Augh, got to it before i did! What type of plug are you guys using? Homemade, or do grips that aren't the A-2 style come with plugs or a "floor plate"?

 

[billcollector]

sounds funny but i have fishing line, couple hooks & matches.

Magpul Miad has a little holder for 3 "my position is being over run and I am all out" 5.56 rounds. For civilian use, earplugs are the most useful.

 

[Iroquois]

I've seen a really neat multi-tool that fits in there. Special made for ARs....not cheap!

Smarties. I store smarties in mine. The next build will either be Sprees or BottleCaps.

The Magpul MOE grip has a floor plate and several different you can buy. They'll fit specific parts or batteries.

Depends on where in the World I am, as to what gets tucked in the Grip...

In the AR I have extra weapon and optic batteries. In the AK I have small copy of form 1 and optic battery.
