I bought this along with the Tango Down BATTle Grip (will review later) and some RAS panals (dont know if they need a review :D)
The Tango Down vertical grip is by far the best vertical grip I have used in my short time owning a gun (believe me, I have had GGG, Knigts, off brands, etc). It beutifully fits every surface of your hand, unlike GGG and Knights where it tapers and makes your hand cramp.
It locks to the rail by two spring loaded levers that lock into the cutouts. I think this is better than the screw style lock used by GGG and Knights as it dosent mar the rail finish and also hold to the rail much tighter. Be aware that when new it holds SOO tight that you may not get it off. Take the levers out along with the spring and place the grip on the rail and allow the cutouts to remove any excess plastic that prevents it from sliding easily on and off the rail!
The inside is large enough to hold a complete M249 bolt (about 1.5x the length of an M16 bolt) while still having room for gas rings and springs and stuff or can hold Aimpoint, EOTech, and flashlight batteries.
It is completely hand filling especially where needed like at the top where so many others taper the grip which can cause cramps if you have big hands.
But the biggest feature of all is the built in tape switch mount for a weaponlight. Say goodbye to duct tape, velcro, or inner tubes FOREVER! It is sized to fit SureFire tape switches, but does come with double sided tape for the smaller tape switches of other companies. It also comes with zip ties to secure the loose tape switch cord to the rail system so it dopsent get damaged (a seemingly cheap addition, but an important and overlooked one non the less). Tango Down really put their heads together with this one!
Price isnt bad either costing only $5 ( I paid $57) more than GGG or Knights and giving you much more for your money!
