As you said, without needing to worry about recoil you have a lot more flexibility in how the holding portion of the rifle is set up. You might have someone who is comfortable firing from the hip (with remote aiming), in which case they might like their forward grip sticking out to the side, like how some people (incorrectly) hold a Sten. | |
