Pennsylvania-based Gripstop has released a new skeletonized version of the vetrepreneur-designed blaster accessory. They're currently available exclusively at Gun Point Manufacturing, where you can also get the standard Gripstop or the smaller “K” (for Kurz) version if you are so inclined. The Gripstop is a minimalist take on the traditional VFG designed with a gradual radius that allows a shooter to adjust his or her grip and pitch angle, avoiding hard angles that necessitate a specific hold. The ridged radius also provides for solid contact when used to brace off a barricade, barrier or other support.

The Gripstop is manufactured by USSOCOM SOPMOD contract owner B5 Systems (and was designed by occasional RECOIL contributor and American Jedi Nathan Murr). It will fit any firearm with deadspace ever 2 3/8 in. (that's the majority of rails and handguards on the market). If you have a Warsport, LWRC or other rifle with threaded inserts every 2 3/8 in. you can bolt the Gripstop on directly. KeyMod, M-LOK and MOE use universal hardware included in the purchase.
