Bren "Commando" Foregrip Fit Problem

[tj214]

BAR, once again you've misread a good-faith request on this site.

The article linked by F10 is very interesting and generally helpful, but as I'm certain F10 knows, wholly irrelevant to my question since it addresses a completely different grip. You'll recall I originally asked specifically about the fitment of the aftermarket grip in the pic I provided. The one described in that article is nothing like the one sold by IMA-USA and others and therefore does not answer my original question, which I asked in good faith.

Your snipes have not been relevant or at all helpful or educational, but in fairness I have to admit you're not picking exclusively on me--you misread quite a few requests and answer in the vein you've shown here. As an Advisory Panel member I would have expected considerably more professionalism from you.

I see...then how about this.. You've come looking for someone to tell you how to fit something that was never fitted. You find no on wants to play. Wonder why? If you hand me this item, I can fit the transverse front mounting pin to it in about five minutes like anyone with hands and eyes and a chainsaw file could. Then you have something that you can do whatever it is you think needs to be done. You get two others asking why you'd add something...like mounting a scope on a #4 rifle and saying that even though this is spurious, they DID make #4 rifles with optics and this is just like it. Peter is quite right about us, the infantry being able to smash that grip off in about five minutes of action, exiting the very first armored carrier should do it. Then we have a bolt there. Yours would damage the front mounting pin. You'll find this one too far forward to be comfortable. I've shot lots of Bren and grasping the folded bipod works great. I'd rather lay prone and use the extended bipod and employ the gun's natural accuracy though.

Please don't feel special because of the treatment you receive. You just keep asking the same question and it gets tiring. As for professionalism...this isn't my job. I'm Infantry...regular army retired.

Enjoy your new toy. Hope you figure it out.
