Milsig I-grip: hybrid e/mech frame for A5

It's powered by a single 9V battery, has semi, 3 rd burst, and full auto, and it's 10BPS. I'll release a 15BPS chip mod (direct drop in) when the box mag is ready.

As promised, the grip can function as a mechanical semi auto grip when the battery runs dry. It should fit on an A5 as well, I'll have to try in in the next few days.

MSRP is expected to be $99 USD

Top picture is the grip mounted on a Commando Pro, bottom pic is a close up of the grip itself.

As usual, feedback / comments are welcomed.

Nice knowing you won't be to stuck exclusively to the battery.

I like the convertable idea..... but 10 BPS only? that is limited for an a5 whos RT ROF cap is along the lines of 20 bps mech.

It's designed for their box-mag based markers, not the A5 like the title would have you believe. You cycle 'em too fast and you will chop a ****load of paint.

The new Milsigs are much more A-5 compatible than the old Tactmarks and Gen4 RAP4s.

The RAP ones were Gen5, not 4, 4's are the current Spyder-based ones.

Also, great news for those batteryophobes. It's like a budget E-Mag!

Nope, you got the order right, just not the number. The release dates went Gen1 (spyder), Gen2 (spyder) Gen3 (spyder), Gen5 (tippmann), Gen4 (funky spyder). I think they wanted to clarify that any "generation" before 5 was Spyder-based, but couldn't finish the Gen4 (a genuine RAP4 design) before the Gen5 (Trinity, Tactmark, etc...) was released.

They want you to upgrade to the 15 bps chip.
