    Not Brownells but the State Department. I now get bits I cant get here <$100US and use international shipping to keep costs down as the shipping also hurts.

    Does any one know if any company makes a quick release pistol grip. Not for the forend but for the right hand grip. (Sorry lefties)
    Even a folding one for that position ?? Would make my chassis gun actually fit a normal sized gun case .

    Never heard of such a thing, the fact that the grip holds one if the springs in place on most ar's make one fairly unlikely. I'm sure one could be made but just buying a case made to fit a ar or the like would most likely be a lot cheeper

    They still make them, I have one.
    It would be a major job to fit it where he wants it

    Very easy to tap a grub screw to hold the safety screw in, myself and a few mates with Spears stocks have done it. Could fairly easily be DIY'd to make it quick detach with a length of threaded rod and a cap to fit the base of the grip

    Very true, and have done it myself-I was just saying that it was a hurdle to there being a manufacturer making as main grips.

    I can think of fairly easy ways to make one using any grip you want, and one of the steps would be the grub screw mod.
    But unless your a machinist the cost would be more than a new case, and unless I'm mistaken (I often am!) that's the point of the exercise

    Case?

    Just break it in half and stuff it in a gym bag, backpack, or any other bag.
