Front Grip busted off my A-5

The first time I used this gun after I bought it, I was crawling through the grass, holding my A-5 in one hand and must have bumped the front grip handle on the ground, stick, or root because it busted off.

Anyone else have this problem?  I noticed that the difference between my A-5 and my friends older version is that this handle screws into an adjustable slot whereas his handle screws into a non-adjustable but much more stable extension of the gun itself.  The actual casted side of the slot busted out (it didn't just come unscrewed) making it forever unusable and I had to return it.

I imagine this is uncommon but wondered if anyone else has had this problem.  This is a potential stress point in the gun and could be fixed in future builds.

I will just buy another A-5 for now, I guess.

Ha Ha, I guess i didn't make myself very clear.  It wasn't just the handle that busted.  The actual slot that it screws into (casted metal on the gun) is what busted.  I can no longer screw a handle into the slot.  The iron the gun was cast from split in two big chunks and fell off the gun.  Kind of like breaking the handle off a cast iron cooking pan.  I guess you could still use the pan but it sure does suck without a handle.

I returned the gun and got my money back, so now I am re-purchasing the gun and being a little more cautious with the handle.

No no, I am not just buying another gun....I am using the same money to repurchase it.  I still think it is a good gun.  Funny
