It does. Typical featureless grips just don't have the amount of leverage to control the rifle one handed and is harder to retain. At least in my experience. If someone has a better featureless grip, I'm all ears.

A buddy of mine really liked the 10.5" carbines in Iraq/Afghanistan. But SBRs are off the table for practically everyone here, so moot.


The whole "SHTF" fantasy is fine and dandy to talk about. But here's the thing. Unless the entire country has collapsed and we're staring at a neo-dark age, you'll probably not want to be running around willy nilly committing felonies. There will already be plenty of people doing that.

Hurricane Katrina is a good example of what might happen here if the "big one" were to hit. Sure, it might seem apocalyptic at the time, but there is still a govt presence and there will be consequences after all is said and done. There may even be an increased police or National Guard presence and increase the likelihood of being arrested.
