We believe the 2nd Amendment is best defended through grass-roots organization, education, and advocacy centered around individual gun owners. It is our mission to encourage, organize, and support these efforts throughout Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming.
i cant cite a memo, but as i recall, VFGs are defined as forward grips by which you can wrap your thumb and fingers around in opposing direction, and therefor the magpul AFG is not considered, BY THE ATF, to be a VFG. contact your state AG for any local rulings.
