TangoDown QD Vertical Battlegrip ITI
After years of searching for the ultimate Quick Detach method for
our vertical grips, TangoDown has teamed with American Defense to bring
you the best vertical grip yet. Some weapon systems and mission profiles require a quick
detach/attach method for vertical grips and other components. Ideally,
this design would require a wide range of adjustment to fit MIL-STD
spec and out-of-spec rails. It would also require no tools for rapid,
accurate adjustment in the harshest field conditions. It would also be
bombproof and light as possible.
That grip is now available. The BGV-QD series vertical grip.. the
latest evolution of our combat-tested and proven BGV-series of vertical
grips.
The BGV-QD series features an ADM U.S. Patent Pending throw lever
system that is steps above anything else available to operators. First,
the throw lever locks in place when installed, and cannot be
inadvertently unlocked, if caught on web gear, slings, etc. A simple
push button releases the throw lever from the locked position allowing
lightning fast attachment or removal when you decide.
Next, the adjustment system for fitting ANY type of rail, from
authentic MIL-STD 1913 to commercial Weaver type is KISS compliant.
Adjustment is accomplished in a flash, with no tools. It is simple,
elegant, light and strong. No more fumbling for wrenches that may–or-
may not be in your kit while you’re on a mountain top in Afghanistan.
All hardware is TYPE III hard coat anodized, or given an anti-glare
black Melonite coating for superior corrosion protection.
The BGV-QD series grips still feature the best heat and impact
modified polymers that money can buy. Our proprietary formulated resins
take combat abuse in stride, and complete the mission every time
without fracturing or shattering from impact, common with some other
brands. All BGV series grips are injection molded from
fiberglass-reinforced resin, not machined from un-reinforced brittle
delrin, for the utmost in strength. Our grips are designed for use on
M4s all the way to 7.62mm belt fed SAWs, and routinely pass 6’ drop
tests on these weapon systems. The BGV-MK46 vertical grip is one of
only two vertical grips in the US Military inventory, awarded NSN #
1010-01-536-4707.
BGV-QD series grips also retain our O- ring protected internal
storage cavity, good for depths of 66 feet. This cavity allows for easy
access storage of weapon spares, batteries and other combat essential
items.
Our US Patented pressure switch pocket feature is also incorporated
into the new QD series, allowing secure mounting of SureFire (BGV-QDSF)
or Insight Technologies (BGV-QDITI) brand pressure switches without
messy duct tape, inner tubes, etc. Simply unscrew the end cap, slide
out the filler panel, and slide in your pressure switch. Reinstall the
end cap, and you now have a secure, protected position for your
pressure switch that stays in place.
As always, every Tangodown product is proudly designed, tooled and
produced here in the United States of America. Our mission still
remains to provide the finest possible kit to the U.S. Warfighter.
