I suffered a catastrophic injury to my hand 5 years ago that makes it extremely uncomfortable, if not impossible to hold my hand guard in a traditional way.  I need an angled fore grip.  I've looked at a lot of them, but just came across one tonight that looks as if it would let me control/hold my AR in a satisfactory way.  It's the ERGO Enhanced Angle Grip.  https://www.armorerssupply.com/shop/keymod-enhanced-angle-grip/

Does anyone on the forum have any experience/knowledge of this grip?

No experience with that one, but have you considered some like below, not sure it will work for you.  But most folks seem to like them better than AFGs.

I had the opportunity to hold a rifle that had one of those on it.  It forced my hand to be more parallel with hand guard, which causes my hand to cramp uncontrollably.  The one I mentioned has what looks like the same angle my hand and fingers lay when I hold my support arm forward.............and it has 3 finger grooves, which helps because I've only 3 fingers.

I have no experience with that particular grip but ERGO is a known and trusted manufacturer with excellent customer service.

If the angle looks right, give it a shot. You can adjust the grip angle using something like McNett camo form wrap.

When l played paintball many years ago it was fairly common to mount the expansion chamber at about a 15° rear angle.  That is the bottom projects further forward than the top.

I always found that more comfortable than a vertical grip and far more comfortable than a forward anger grip.

So of you find an angled grip try mounting it backwards.



Like this one, only turn out around.

Gripstops are the absolute pinnacle of foregrips

Ergo looks good, everything I’ve bought by them in the past has been well made
