 I know.  However, I believe all that experience changing out flat tires on their boats gives them a leg up on shooting.  Hand strength, manual dexterity and all that.  And never being in water more than neck deep, ever, gives them good exercise when they wade back to shore should all four tires go flat.

That's a pretty strong view considering he hasn't uploaded very much to YouTube, yet he's a household name in the shooting community based on his training...

Nice mini van.

I too thought the forward grip was odd. I'll have to give that a try the next time I'm out on the range.

I routinely use that type of forend grip on a sawed off double or a hard recoiling subgun to prevent the forend from climbing out of the hand which is possible on a std. under grip.

I don't know the history, but considering he was the President of Magpul, I'm wondering if he was the origin of their "Angled Fore Grip (AFG)" http://store.magpul.com/category/117 (http://store.magpul.com/category/117).

I heard a hilarious quote from Chris Costa once, back when he was with Travis Haley.  Something to the effect of when they would go out at night all the women wanted Haley's phone number, and all the guys wanted to know what kind of pants Costa was wearing in his videos.
