Overview
Built for KeyMod or M-Lok handguards, this compact vertical grip adds a simple, low-profile hand position without unnecessary bulk. Its radiused top and tapered shape are designed to sit cleanly against the mounting surface, while twin mounting screws help keep it secured in place. The hollow, no-end-cap design keeps the profile minimal, making it a practical option for hunters and shooters who want a straightforward support point on a rifle setup. Installation requires a 9/64" Allen wrench, which is not included.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed as a minimal vertical grip, so it offers a simpler feel than more feature-heavy handguard accessories.
- The grip is hollow and has no end-cap, which keeps it streamlined but may not suit users who prefer a closed-bottom design.
- Installation requires a 9/64" Allen wrench, and the wrench is not included.
- Mounting hardware is platform-specific, so you need the KeyMod or M-Lok version that matches your handguard.
