Product Description
COMPATIBILITY
Fits standard AR-pattern lower receivers like the AR15, M4, M16, AR10, M110, SR25, etc.
Designed to optimize the AR platform, Granite Grip boasts a proprietary wrap-around texture in three variations: Fine and Topo for a moderately grippy surface, and Coarse, for those that need an aggressive texture for gloved hands and grip in extreme conditions. The reduced grip angle of 13.1°, compared to a standard mil-spec pistol grip, helps with precision but is versatile enough for all applications. Forgoing traditional manufacturing methods allowed us to create the unique tapered profile, which offers unmatched comfort and control, while the flat front face and chamfered edges inspired by precision shooting help build consistency.
FEATURES
The Granite Grip utilizes MJF 3D printing with durable Nylon 12 just like ESD's Enhanced Foregrips for M-Lok or Picatinny. This method of manufacturing is unique in that it doesn’t conform to modern manufacturing principles that injection molding requires. With this style of manufacturing, we can avoid draft angles and create shapes that wouldn’t be moldable. Because of this, ESD was able to alter the shape and texturing of pistol grips that we traditionally know.
The Granite Grip’s geometry widens to fill your palm before tapering to a narrower point at the bottom. Tapering the grip aids in the placement of your hand as well as generating more leverage and control of the grip itself.
TEXTURE
The Granite Grip has a texture that doesn’t exist anywhere else on the market. Utilizing advanced 3D modeling we can change and tweak the textures limitlessly for the best possible traction, smooth out in areas of movement where you don’t want grip, avoid hot spots, and fade out the texture unlike any grip before.
Ergonomics is our specialty. Our design team has a background in human factors of design and we are a team full of shooters. During the development process, we studied the strengths and shortcomings of existing grips in our industry and looked outside of our industry for inspiration. With a drawn-out research phase, we focused on making a pistol grip that provided an optimal grip angle when shooting from a wide assortment of positions, that worked with and without gloves, that accommodated the 99% of hands of the population, that enhanced the selector manipulation process and provided a grip for long-distance precision shooting and up close rapid fire. After years of ideation and iterations, we are proud to present the Granite Grip, which we believe is the last pistol grip you’ll ever need.
Choose between our Fine, Coarse, and Topo texture options to optimize the Granite Grip for your needs. We recommend Fine texture for those who want a smoother finish, like to use hockey tape as their main traction or don’t like the intensity of the course grips texture. If you want a grip that embodies calloused hands from a hard day’s work of chopping wood, deadlifting small pickup trucks, or popping open a nice cold one without a bottle opener the Course textured Granite Grip is for you. The Topo has a level of grip somewhere between the Fine and Coarse versions but with more varied surface elevation.
Hardware is included with each Granite Grip consisting of one 1” 18-8 Passivated Stainless Steel Button Head Hex Drive Screw designed to withstand the cruelest of weather conditions around the globe, as well as a Belleville lock washer for vibration management.
The Granite Grip is designed, made, and assembled here in the USA.
