Arisaka Defense M-LOK Aluminum Vertical Forend Grip - Tactical Precision & Durability

The Arisaka Defense M-LOK aluminum vertical forend grip brings serious ergonomic control and durability to your tactical or competition rifle build. This made-in-the-USA grip is engineered for shooters who demand reliable handling without the bulk—think of it as the no-nonsense option when you need a solid purchase point forward on your handguard without excess material or weight dragging your gun down.

What sets this grip apart is its purposeful design: the top features a radiused profile that tapers cleanly to meet your M-LOK handguard, keeping the overall silhouette low and snag-free while delivering genuine ergonomic comfort where your support hand naturally lands. The hollow aluminum construction keeps things light—just 1.8 oz—so you're not adding unnecessary mass to the front of your rifle. Twin mounting screws and included M-LOK hardware lock it down solid, and there's no end-cap to worry about, making field disassembly and cleaning a straightforward job.

Whether you're running a 3-gun setup, a duty rifle, or a dedicated DMR, this grip is built to take punishment and deliver consistent performance. It's the kind of component that doesn't shout for attention but absolutely earns its place on a serious shooter's rig.

The grip ships with two M-LOK nuts and two 10-24x3/4" hex cap head screws needed for installation. No tools beyond a standard hex wrench are required for mounting.

Is this grip suitable for precision rifle work?

Yes. The low-profile design and ergonomic profile support solid hand placement for tactical, competition, or precision shooting applications. Its minimal bulk keeps your rifle balanced and responsive.
