Rifle Grips

A rifle grip, as the name suggests, is the part of the rifle that you hold onto. Sometimes, they are called pistol grips because the design mimics the grip on a pistol. Comfort and ergonomics should be your top priority when choosing a grip – it should not only suit its intended use but also feels right in your hand. Consider the following factors:

• Hand Size and Orientation: Your grip should accommodate your hand size and whether you're left or right-handed.
• Grip Angle: Decide between a reduced grip angle and a standard grip angle based on your comfort and shooting style.
• Finger-to-Trigger Positioning: Ensure that the grip allows for optimal finger-to-trigger positioning.
• Build Material: The material of the grip can affect its durability and feel.
• Finish: Choose between a rubberized finish for a softer feel and a hard finish for durability.
• Texturing: Decide between aggressive texturing for a firm grip or smooth texturing for comfort.
• Palm Swells: Some grips come with palm swells for improved handling while others do not.
• Finger Grooves: Finger grooves can provide additional control, but some shooters prefer a smooth front strap.

Types of AR-15 Grips

• Angle grip (aka AR pistol grip): This type of grip is angled forward or backward to provide a more ergonomic hold. It's great for those long shooting sessions.
• Vertical grip (aka AR forward grip, front grip, or foregrip): A foregrip is positioned on the front of the rifle, providing extra stability during rapid fire. It's a favorite among many shooters for its increased control and accuracy.
• Skeletonized AR Grips: These are lightweight grips with sections cut out. They're perfect for those who value speed and maneuverability.
