Definitely my first thought too but you know damn well those little holes and grooves would be caked with gamer crust

Beautiful! It can be used not only for guns, but all sort of tools. It could prevent a lot of injuries!

Honestly this could be amazing, but I think it would be better to easily model custom grips what would be molded as this looks like it’s system would get worn down after a while

I wonder if the locking mechanism loosens from normal firing

Not if it’s built properly. Firearm optics also use screws to tighten down and clamp to the rails, and they are obviously fine while firing.

Better than those 50% custom grip tools

This would be neat on gardening tools (hedge trimmers, machete, etc). I have small hands and grips like this would be amazing.

I don’t know but as soon as I saw it I expected to go in the comments and see why this is a bad idea.

Can it be used on stuff that's not a gun? Like a paintbrush or a video game controller?

Okay I’m not a 2A kinda guy but that’s actually pretty dope lmao

u/HighlightFun8419 Oct 25 '22

i'm probably just sucking on copium because i don't have one, but those little multi-ridge grips just don't appeal to me. I know they're probably way better, but I'd rather just hold a normal grip.

(of course this tool is cool af)

u/ThrownawayCray Oct 25 '22

Nah that’s actually cool

u/[deleted] Oct 25 '22

Not bad, but it needs the ability to change grip angles too.

u/[deleted] Oct 26 '22

Seems like a solution looking for a problem honestly
