I dislike vertical grips because they dig into your thigh when the carbine is across your lap riding in a vehicle. Obviously this isn't a concern for most civilian use though. I also think that vertical grips ruin the lines on most rifles. The AFG "looks" much better.

But ultimately for plain old shooting, you will need to try both and decide. The RVG is intended to be more of a hand stop than a vertical grip. The AFG1/2 is the next evolution of that idea.
