What's there to argue about? It helps with muzzle rise and faster target acquisitions in certain situations. You put your hand (extra weight) where the rise happens. Seems pretty intuitive to me.

LOL

vertical foregrips are a fucking meme too you shitlord.
>>
>>29548679
It really only works with ARs because the handguard is so small and the weapon is light, but if you had to carry a larger rifle all day or even m-16 all day you start to use more bone support when using it, which is why you'll see grunts using mag well and shit. You can't hold a rifle up like that all fucking day clearing houses.

Yeah C-clamp is like some 3gun shit or something you do in a class to look like a tool. If you're constantly bringing your rifle up and down all day at stuff you just palm the area under the rail and in front of the grip.
>>
>>29548754
until you're under stress and firing and you C clamp the shit out of it the rail to control your uncontrollable desire to pull the trigger and end a threat.

C-Clamp is retarded

1) Putting your hand near the fucking end of the barrel like an invalid

2) Putting your hand in front of the sights like a moron

3) Longer distance between magazine release, slide release, harder to operate the forward assist, hands farther away from mag dump pouch and chest carrier.

C-Clamp is some stupid shit you will see people do in music videos and gun porn because they have no concept of the reality of warfare.

I have no fucking idea what you're trying to say and you sound like a sperg.

Sounds like an imagination run wild from someone who has never spent time walking from village to village in Afghanistan while shouldering a rifle 999 times to look at shady dudes in the distance.

When you see guys shooting offhand longer distances is where those olympic positions start coming into play again. C-Clamp Tacticool mall ninja shit works for close quarters pretty much exclusively.

No, take the seven of them out of your ass

C-Clamp is the sideways iron sight meme of grip. If you ever see anyone using a C-Clamp it will be at a range wearing shiny bright brand new gear with a safe queen rifle making a NutnFancy YouTube video at stationary targets from a standing position without any cover or concealment.

These idiots have no concept of what a gunfight is really like when people are shooting back at you. You will either be moving to/from cover shooting from cover or reloading and communicating.

Not C-Gripping from a standing open position for a YouTube meme video.
>>
>>29548898
>C-Clamp Tacticool mall ninja shit works for close quarters pretty much exclusively.
Whoever is arguing otherwise is autistic. Of course it only serves its one small purpose in close quarters. Anyone who argued otherwise didn't understand it to start with

What is it about c clamp having one small use triggering so many fucking faggots?
>>
>>29548479
I dunno about it man. I tried it the other day at the range and it felt weird to me. Not saying its stupid. Just felt different like it wasn't working out. Maybe it works for other people.

It's like how people claim CAR works for their pistoleering. OK maybe it does but it doesn't really work for me.
>>
>>29548933
I was just articulating for people who maybe don't know. I'm not arguing with you.

>>29548933
Better question is why you're white knighting for a grip technique.

Who's the fag now?
>>
>>29548883
wrong. I'm speaking from experience. I had an engagement at 15m.

That being said, long distance scoping out someone I'd raise the rifle like you said.

It's funny because the anti C-clamp fags are yet to say why it's bad other than "muh opinion"

Seems unnecessary to have a grip in a situation where you would have to ruck long miles. Probably reduces muzzle flip compared to grips as well.

Go to any rifle match. Especially 2gun, 3gun, and pretty much any speed/steel shoot.

You'll find most people using some form of c-clamp, but dressed in normal clothes or competition clothes. Why? Because it works you fucking autistic mongoloid.
>>
>>29549562
Miculek is an old dumb fudd and a shill. What he does doesn't really matter in the long run.
>>
>>29549594
The actual type of grip you use doesn't really matter as much as putting your off-hand far forward for speed shooting.

I guess this thread is relevant?
Comapred to pics in this thread, majority of russkies seem to grip their AK's somewhere around the magazine well/mag itself.
Is this because of different center of balance?
>>
>>29548479
Depends on the situation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=um8SswgKRPc&nohtml5=False
>>
>>29548511
To be fair, the only reason they hold them like that is to operate the peq15. It's pretty common on any pics you see of people shooting mk18s. Guys shooting m4s just use the tape switches.>>29548511
>>
seems like C-clamp would be much more uncomfortable for sustained combat.
I don't get the advantages of it over just using your grip like a normal person.
also, what's the deal with angled foregrips?
>>
>>29549835
No. C-Clamp is especially good on front heavy guns. Magwell grip is good for tight quarters. Magwell is easier to do for longer periods of time.

Or I will hold the rifle how ever I damn well plz. If I feel like holding it upside down and shooting it that way, I will. Fuck you for trying to tell me how to shoot.

How do you C-Clamp while in the prone position? Why not use the same grip you would use in all positions instead of having multiple different grips for different positions?

3)negligible

>ignoring all the SOF guys who have put bodies in graves using c-clamp grip.
>muh fatigue
jesus christ if you fags get so tired from holding a rifle up maybe you should go to the gym. You aren't holding your rifle in the shooting stance all the time. Realistically it's in the ready position 99% of the time and when you ID a threat you raise it. If you feel like you can't do your job because holding a rifle tired you out that's pretty fucking pathetic.
>>
>>29548942
CAR is also for very specific scenarios. The comfort level of C-clamp is pretty dependant on how far you reach too.
>>
>>29550091
Also AKs get hot as fuck.
>>
>>29550074

Pick any object hanging on your wall, then extend your arm out and point to it. That's basically what c-clamping does, and it's intuitively easier to get on target faster since humans are excellent at pointing their arms towards things.

It is tiring, and very few guns allow you to do it, but those don't really matter in competition shooting.
