I'm probably the odd man out here, but I prefer the factory AI thumbhole stock.

But I could make room in my safe for either version - provided there was an AE MK III attached.

Re: Looks could kill....Thumbhole or Pistol Grip?

I recently received a MKIII in .260. I have both stock skins and I do prefer the pistol grip to the thumbhole not for appearance but in function. I actually think the thumbhole grip looks better but I hate how it feels.
 
Re: Looks could kill....Thumbhole or Pistol Grip?

I love the looks of the new AI skins but the pistol grip would prob work better with my paws.
 
Re: Looks could kill....Thumbhole or Pistol Grip?

I love the way that thumbhole looks, seriously, love it love it love it . . .

. . . but looks can't kill, or hit targets.
 
Re: Looks could kill....Thumbhole or Pistol Grip?

For my experience between those two I like both. But I had a lots of fan's in the range if I'm using thumbhole rather than pistol grip. Most people recognize right away that I'm using AI and dropped by and say "WOW!" :p
 
Re: Looks could kill....Thumbhole or Pistol Grip?

Hate that thumbhole, on anything. Love the pistol grip though, feels soooo much better.(And Looks)
 
Re: Looks could kill....Thumbhole or Pistol Grip?

love the look of thumbhole but pistol grip for practicality.
 
Re: Looks could kill....Thumbhole or Pistol Grip?

hard to choose what ever feels better. both look good
 
Re: Looks could kill....Thumbhole or Pistol Grip?

I have had both-----I prefer thumbhole.
 
Re: Looks could kill....Thumbhole or Pistol Grip?

Thumbhole looks 100x better in my eyes.... but just feels too cramped for me. I had Viperskins on my 2 AICS, but they always looked a bit too unbalanced to my eye (front heavy).
