0000648: "Wrong" grip animation AR-15 variants mainly the SR-25 and 25EC
Some of the M4 and M16's use a mag well grip which is a novice shooter grip and not a grip commonly used by practiced shooters. It's extremely awkward in a longer barrel rifle like the SR-25's.

Lots of places will tell you this grip is fine because its comfortable and it is to a point, but its really uncomfortable with a longer barreled rifle.



This is the grip used now

this is how it should be

I would not change the grip on the M4 or M16 since apparently its a common enough grip among military men. However the SR-25 is a DMR and a longer heavier rifle which would not be fired this way.

Truth is this is a subject that has been brought to us a few times, and after asking to our military advisors (people that have been or are in service) they said that it's mainly a taste thing, everyone shoots as they feel better.

Said that, we may work out some improved animations in the long term.
