don't u know how the asa connection is in the grip you have to get a drop foward that goes into the grip which is called a bolt on

ah ok so a regular drop forward won't exactly work w/ the a5... where can i find one of these bolt on's?

or you can get a thing so you don't have to get a bolt on so u can just get any drop

Then you can mount the drop on that.

yea, for some reason for the a-5 :o

you needs to buy a "drop forward" adapter, its just one of those things (gimmicks to get your money) ....

I played with a remote for a while now I love my drop, it seems more balanced. Try both see what you like.

the remote makes the gun lighter.

I hate remotes, I had one, I'll never buy one again, get a drop forward, or no drop at all
