My question is what is the rule of thumb as to where on the rail to attach a fore grip. I am somewhat new to ar's ( always been an AK man ) It seems most pictures show it about almost exactly halfway on the rail. I really do like the way the way foregrips change your stance. Might put one on my AK. Any help would be appreciated!! Happy Holidays!!!!

It's going to depend on your arm length and what style of grip you use, like a beer can grip or whatever. I've been reading Green Eyes and Black Rifles by Kyle Lamb and he has his mounted all the way forward on the rail. I have mine back a little bit because it's more comfortable and if I want to still grip just the rail I can. Again in the book, Kyle Lamb says, "If you use a forward pistol grip, slide it out, not so far that it is uncomfortable, but get it where it assists in driving the weapon." Hope that helps.
Although I guess looking at the pic, mine is almost all the way to the end of the rail too.
