Magpul AFG w/ bipod and foregrip?

[Kastl]

And the bipod is on a picatinny adapter mount which then has a quick-disconnect sling swivel stud mount. So when I'm not using the bipod, the weight is gone. But the swivel mount still takes up space on the rail. So the vfg is for shooting, and the afg is for carrying, because it's more comfortable.

and the front sight post is honestly just for looks, and doesn't interfere with the scope.

Cool. That's a perfectly good reason.

I was just wondering if there was a thought process behind it.

Same reason many of us do many different things to our 15-22's. It is why mine is 2 tone (actually about 5 tone as I have "FDE" from about 3 different manufacturers and one home applied colour )

As a few others have said, I would go with something like the Grip Pod or one of the Fab Defense versions and kill two birds with one stone. Save weight, bulk and rail space.
