After having surgery on my wrist back in January, it doesn’t look like I’ll be regaining 100% of flexibility/mobility back into it. Im still trying to get there but I can already tell my standard Magpul MOE grips aren’t gonna cut it

I need something slightly more vertical grip to keep it from aching after a few minutes.

The B5 Systems Type 22 P-Grip looks promising along with the BCM Gunfighter Mod 0.


Any others worth looking into?

MOE grips are 25 degrees. Magpul K2 grips are 17 degrees. I like mine.

Fortis has 5 degree grips. Not everyone's cup of tea, but the 5 degree angle is pretty interesting.

I like the K2 from Magpul. Not too vertical, not an A2 angle either meaning I can now get a slightly shorter LOP and be able to have more control with the support hand.

Googled that and saw a 5 degree grip with integrated thumb rest from MK Machining that might find its way onto my precision 20” rig

5* might be a hair too much for day to day stuff but the compromise of 17 degrees should probably do it.

Here's another option. This is their Coyote Brown. Kinda wish BCM would offer a Coyote option with their grip.

The BCM Gunfighter grips have been / are my go-to for carbines, although I am playing with the B5 P-Grip on both a carbine and precision build and am liking it well in both applications.

I tried to like mine but ended up giving it away. It was super slippery in my firing hand. I had thought about getting a blank sheet of Talons but decided to give it to a friend.

The K2 is on sale at Primary Arms for like $16 but I think I like the BCM gunfighter mod 0 the best

I remember when people thought H&K was smoking crack for having a more vertical grip angle.

I've used the B5 analog of the old Umbrella Corp (now seems to be the type 23 I guess), Magpul K2, BCM Mods 1 and 2.

Only one I don't like much is the K2 and I might ever-so-slightly prefer the BCM Mod 1.
