If the actor doesn't want to use the K grip then they don't have too.
I always coach them to be comfy, because if they try to look like they know what they are doing they will fail.
They have a lot to worry about like lines and hitting the mark blah blah.

We are make a movie not saving the world.
Thanks for the reply, Al, good to hear from you again. How's showbiz been going lately?

Done any awesome movies with good shootouts? I know as the guy with the guns, it can be frustrating working with actors and directors that might not always listen

A good movie CAN save the world!
So keep at it, whatever you're doing.

Just finished "Red", look for the belt feed machine gun and guess what it is.
Finished RE4 afterlife in 3D end of last year, working on a few more right now.

Actors are like everybody else, they put pants on the same way we do.

Just so everyone knows, Al has worked on "Flashpoint" (since that's one of the examples of "foregrip allergy" that has been cited in this topic). His IMDB credits are here:

IMDB says you got to work on something w/ Spielberg, too. How did that go?

I'm just so envious that you got to work on "Boondock Saints II" (dunno if you're a fan of the first one or not).

Think you can tell us some of the guns you got for Resident Evil Afterlife?

I still can't believe they are continuously making these bad RE movies.

I'm wondering, how did you get the jennings to cycle in boondock saints 2? Those guns choke on real ammo let alone blanks.

That's what that gun was? It was starting to bother me since I can't ID it

I would just politely tell the actors to hold the foregrip when you run because it'll feel better or just remove the foregrips all together
