New BCM Pistol Grip?

Dunderway · #1 09-24-11, 13:54

I brought this up in the MOE+ thread but didn't want to derail it any further.

There doesn't seem to be much info on it, and BCM hasn't had much of a presence on the forums lately.

Kinda looks like the HK grip or the Magpul K-grip. The angle is a little more vertical than typical. I'd give it a try!

Yea, the HK grip was my first thought too.

There seems to be a shift towards more vertical grips. I guess its the new thing. I've never tried one so I can't debate between the two either way. I'm curious though.

Rifle training now is much less shooting from the basic positions, and a lot more urban/close quarters oriented. A steeper (more vertical) angled grip is less comfortable for prone shooting, but much more comfortable for the new school of training, i.e. the squared, arms tucked stance instead of the classic bladed standing and prone positions.

These will be available in about 1-2 months.

Hard to tell for sure from the pic - do they cover the gap between the grip and the trigger guard? It looks like it does...

Kinda looks like the Tango Down battlegrip and the Magpul MOE had a baby.

Any updates?

Handled the MagPul K grip today and though I liked the angle, it's just <Jimmy Macmillan voice> "too damn small." </JMV>

If priced competitively, the BCM grip may just be what I've been looking for.

after looking at it in photos (the gun store near me doesnt have it in stock), i think it might be too small for me as well.

I have one and after a day at the range I've decided it's too small for me too. Back to the A2. Never should have left....that's what I like about Magpul stuff though. Doesn't cost a fortune to be wrong

... unless it's the UBR.

Magic_Salad0892 · #13 11-04-11, 06:38

BCM grip looks kinda nice. Still. Gonna take a little to get me to steer away from the BG-17 though.

I wanna try it.

Looks like enhanced copy of HK V1 Battle Grip

I was using HK V2 Battle Grip (with extension, like MOE/MOE+) for some 3 years. This new angle is better when using frontal stance, shoulders square to the target and short stock. It puts wrist in more natural angle that A2 grip. Magpul MIAD and MOE are somewhere in between of A2 and HK grip. Personally I like HK angle better. But now I use Stark Grip, while very ugly, provides even more comfortable grip for me and allows trigger pull parallel to the bore. Below HKs with A2 and Stark Grip.

Durham68 · #15 11-04-11, 09:23

I have been waiting for something like this for a while. The Troy Battle Ax grip was as close as I could find until I saw the HK grip. Then I saw the price tag on the HK grip.

Yea there's Magpul and there there is also MAGPUL. I was for sure talking Magpul in this case

Looks good, but I hope they release a version that sets your hand back more/increases the distance from the web of your hand to the trigger. I've often thought a more vertical grip would be more comfortable shooting squared up and standing.

Stark Grip?

Look on picture in my previous post.

Dionysusigma · #19 11-10-11, 01:09

... presumably that doesn't require removal of the trigger guard as well.

Any updates? I know I'm being annoying, but I handled a V1 Hk Battle Grip today, and it was a perfect match for what I want to do. There's no way in heck I'm paying that much for the Hk name, though. That and all my uppers are BCM-branded anyway...

Grant posted above in #5 I believe that they will be available in 1-2 months. I'd wait till then.
