    My wife has extra small hands. She was running a MOE grip on her rifle but would have to relax her grip to reach the mag release with her finger so I put a K Grip on her rifle this week. It is a huge improvement for her, she can reach the mag release now, without relaxing her grip. At first I thought the K Grip would be too short, but this isn't the case for her. Still, when the BCM Grip hits the shelves I may order on of these too, just to see how it works for her.

    Hmm those grips look nice but I wish there were some palm swell bumps on the side like the ergo grips.

    I just put one on a build.

    It is VERY similar to the troy battle axe grip which I love on my scar and it has place on my guns.

    The K grip was too short and narrow for my medium size hands. Unless you have a very light SBR, weapons manipulation such as speed reloads will be compromised. And if you hang a suppresor off the end, well forget about it.
    I like the more vertical angle, but I will wait for the BCM grip instead.

    I put one on my 16" BCM/KAC gun to test it out. I liked the grip angle quite a bit, and felt it helped align the Aimpoint a little better when I shouldered it.

    It didn't perfectly conform to the KAC lower's geometry, and jutted out a small amount at the top. It also didn't cover the gap under the trigger guard. This isn't a problem if you wear gloves, but barehanded will be painful after a bit.

    I ran about eight mags through the gun with the K Grip installed, and found that it was too small for a 16" gun. There's just too much weight forward of the grip for it to be comfortable over a period of time. It ended up being fatiguing. I can see a PDW application (as advertized), but for my hands, it's too small on a carbine.

    I ended up reinstalling the US Palm grip. It provides a lot more support and control.

    I have one on one of my rifles. It is not without it's charms. (6'5") I don't mind small-ish grips, and on my gen4 glock, go with the smallest grip. (They feel better to me.) I really like the grip angle, but the grip itself is too short. My pinky totally hangs off. I don't mind the thickness as much as the shortness. I will probably keep it for the angle alone.

    grip angle... 9
    length .... 2
    thickness .... 5
    no stipple....0

    I will probably stipple mine at least.
