Types of AR-15 Foregrips
Vertical Foregrips
Vertical foregrips provide strong leverage and enhanced control, making them a popular choice for defensive and duty-style rifles.
Angled Foregrips
Angled foregrips promote a more natural wrist position and forward grip technique. They are commonly used on lightweight builds and competition rifles to improve comfort and manage recoil.
Folding and Specialty Foregrips
Some foregrips fold or integrate added features such as storage, bipods, or lighting, offering increased versatility without sacrificing control.
Mounting Options and Compatibility
Foregrips are available for a variety of handguard systems.
M-LOK foregrips offer a lightweight, low-profile mounting solution for modern free-float rails. Picatinny foregrips remain a solid option for traditional rail systems and universal compatibility.
Always confirm your handguard type before selecting a foregrip.
Choosing the Right Foregrip
The best foregrip depends on how you shoot and how your rifle is configured. Grip angle, placement, and profile all affect comfort and control. Many shooters prefer positioning the foregrip closer to the front of the handguard for improved leverage, while others favor a more compact setup for maneuverability.
Foregrips and AR-15 Pistols
Foregrip selection can affect the legal classification of AR-15 pistols depending on the grip type and configuration. Laws and regulations vary by location and can change over time.
Always verify current local and state laws before installing a foregrip on an AR-15 pistol.
