Can the Q2 handgrip be used on Q3?

What would be the best way to fit a handgrip on the new Q3, without buying the Q3 remote charging "handgrip charger"?

I use my Q2 handgrip, fits just fine.

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

3rd thread with that same question 🫠

But I can support the answer of @hedleyw.

Would it be an even better fit to buy the Q3 "Wireless Charging Handgrip HG-DC1" (without buying the remote charging pad "Drop XL Wireless Charger"), for a better fit & look, and with the Arca-Swiss plate shape; just keep using the regular charging method provided in the Q3 package already?

Do they fit? or did you buy "HG-DC1"?

I had the original Q grip on my Q2 and now it’s on my Q3 with finger loop. It fits a treat without any problems.

I use my Q2 grip on my Q3 with no problems in terms of fit.

I bought a used Q2 grip. It fits fine but I can feel a small wiggle sometimes. The Q2 grip doesn’t have a locator pin.  I use a Match Technical thumbs up alone these days

The HG-DC1 has a single flange but does NOT fit an ARCA Swiss clamp.
