"And any gun can have a foregrip, meaning any gun can counter the Bal-27's recoil."

From wall testing, all guns seem to have very minimal recoil difference when the Fore Grip is attached (if your AK-12 had a Foregrip and my BAL had a Foregrip, your AK-12 would have less recoil, but not by a lot). It seems that Fore Grip more positively affects high recoil guns compared to low recoil guns.
