Wish some one made an aluminum or at least nicer grip for the a-5 thats also compatible with the e-grip. j&j has made an aluminum grip but its only compatible with the response.

Edit: just to clarify im not saying the stock grip is not compatible with the e-grip

the stock grip is not compatible with the e-grip. The e-grip is a whole new grip.

Why do you need an aluminum grip anyway?

Do you know how many stories we have heard on here of grips snapping?  Zero.

Thought an aluminum grip would be coo, be like the j&j grip only it'd be capatible with the e-grip cause then could add grip stickies and also i just don't like the plastic grip. Idk i just think it'd be a cool upgrade.

I doubt you'd be able to modify any existing grip frames to fit the A5. You'd probably have to have it custom machined - that'll cost you a pretty penny. As for the place evil_fingers was refering to, though:

It doesn't look like they make anything for the A5, but there's still some really cool stuff here.
