Have you tested with the 0° ergo grip? The gtac smashes my middle finger against the trigger guard.

I tried my best with the design, but that’s a tough one to accommodate because it needs a long LOP (trigger reach) for there to be room. It works great with the angled Ergo, but I’ll see if I can find a 0 Ergo to test.
For reference this is the GTAC with the Ergo from previously in the thread. I believe the shape of the bottom of my trigger guard will be better.
What Fozzy said.
I had to revert back to the Ergo angled grip on my GTAC as with the Ergo zero angle/contours my middle finger was compressed up into the trigger guard.
Ill keep the GTAC with the angled Ergo on my AX and with much anticipation wait out for Sam and Christian’s wizardry for my AXMC.
Pls put me down for one.

Looks great, Sam! Very similar to what I had pictured you might come up with, in my mind. Is there any chance you can show us a top view of the MPA installed, so we can see how much room there is to use the included thumbrest? Good news on the trigger guard too as far as ergo tdx-0 compatibility. If you're able, could we get a pic of a hand gripping and using the vision thumbrest?...it looks awfully high up from the pics...could you design a longer one that extended down lower or have the threaded holes lower?
Thanks!
All great points.
I can take some pics with the MPA grip. Unfortunately the width of the AI chassis and buttstock frame makes it impossible to go super thin on the grip panels. I wanted the MPA grip to work, but it won’t have the full thumb rest clearance that it would on an MPA BA Comp chassis.
Yeah, Christian was just messing around with the thumb hole spacing and using the same thumb rest from his Vision chassis. My original prototype had the holes lower, and it should be possible to do that, or put more adjustment into the thumb rest itself, or both. The benefit of having a 3D printer and Christian being a whiz on machines is we can go through prototype designs to see what works relatively quickly. I spent a lot of time getting the current Anarchy thumb rest right because ergonomics are everything.
In for a PB and DE

Christian is doing some testing, it looks like the thumb rest position should be ok, but we’ll keep looking into it.
He said the way it’s designed and the two halves being aluminum is unbelievably solid. No concerns whatsoever of lifting the rifle by the grip.

Please make one without the holes for the thumb shelf for me.

I would take one without the holes for thumb shelf too. Even in bare metal as the rifle is still yet to get coated.

I have to say, I'm surprised at the number of people who don't want the ability to add the thumb rest. Is there a reason? You just know you always shoot with your thumb wrapped around and don't want the extra holes in the side?
Not judging, just curious. And need to figure out if that should a stand-alone option or if they'll be special orders.

I'd probably just leave the holes in. If I don't like the holes, 3D print a snap in tacticool mall ninja cover.
By the way, I have the GTAC kit on my AX and I love it. These are a really bad as alternate option.

P.S. I don't wrap my thumb and I manage to do just fine not having a Lazy Boy recliner for my thumb.

I personally do not like the thumb shelf.I know people love it. It’s just not what I like
Wondering if having some flat cap screws to put in the holes that aren't being used for the thumb rest would make sense? Or you could let us know what size and we could buy them ourselves. Hell I'd probably get mine cerakoted to match.
This, although the closest real town is only 70 miles away. I wouldn't mind 1 way other the other, but it would be nice if you included some grub screws to fill the holes and keep them from getting packed with dust and dirt.
I just don't like the unfinished look of threaded holes and nothing in them. If they had small Allen's threaded in and were cerakoted with the skins I would be good with that.
FYI the holes will be machined in prior to blasting and Cerakoting. The previous pictures show the holes that were machined after Christian Cerakoted them. So the final product won't be showing raw aluminum in the holes.
The grip panels are thin, so there's no way to facilitate screws from the backside. Installing cap screws on the outside would be possible, but honestly would look really goofy and not be a good texture for your thumb/hand to rub along.
We can make a version with no holes if there is interest, but I don't think there should be worries of them having any negative effect other than aesthetic.

I'm sure I was the only one thinking that and knowing that they will be cerakoted eliminates any concern I had. Probably should have know that. Haha.
I must be getting soft, some reason I don’t fell like getting out in it to shoot. 
We are considering just shipping some from Norway hole-less and offering them as a second option.
Think I see mine in there
Nope. That one is mine.
We will work on them next, I don't think there is a lot to change other than the bolt handle and safety cutout, but it will be a separate version.
Hey!
Anyone that wants a grip set without holes, there is going to be limited numbers in this batch. I think only 4 of them in this batch were made without holes.
My advice would be to give Rick at GCP a call, give him your name and let him know you specifically want a set of the AI grips without holes. He should be able to put a list together, get your cerakote color, etc.

There is hope,Thanks Sam
Can’t wait! I’m in for at least a couple of AX AICS kits when available!
You can see how much thinner it is than the factory plastic skins, making it even more comfortable for putting your thumb on the side. Note the difference in width between the black hinge and the green skins.
