What we always dread as airsoft players whilst playing in the field is that when our airsoft guns breakdown in the middle of the game. Most probably you will start fishing for tools in the myriads of pockets to find that bit to help you tighten a screw here to avoid rattles; loosen a screw to open the compartment to replace the battery, or do some quick maintenance with your gearbox, especially the new ones where you just need to flick something to change springs or adjust FPS or even the hop-up.

Chances are, it might take you minutes to find the tools, wondering which pocket or pouch where you put the tools.  But what if all the tools to help you do that quick job to making your rifle get back into the action?

A news post at Militaryblog.jp about a product by America Grip may just be the answer to what we need.

America Grip has the tool for you and it will be right in front of you. Called the "Tool Grip" it is a Rail cover it will fit most modern rail systems and will accept most 2" hex-shanked tool bits.  All you need to do is attach the "Tool Grip" to your handguard that uses  a rail system. You don't need to carry all the hex tools, just select the tools you need for a mission or a game, put them in the Tool Grip, mount them to the handguard, and you're ready to go. The best thing is that you're comfortable with the knowledge that your tools are within easy reach.
