TangoDown BG-18 has a steeper grip angle than the milspec A2. Took a session to adjust my grip pressure but now I prefer it. Polymer is dense and durable. The vertical-leaning angle works well for a c-clamp shooting position.

TangoDown BG-18 has a slightly more vertical grip angle than a standard A2. Fills my hand better than a milspec grip. Polymer is dense and durable. The angle works well for a c-clamp shooting stance. Solid budget upgrade.
