A Grip Worth Talking About
Depending on when you're reading this, the Kung Fu Grip might be a new addition to the Brownells lineup. But for me, it’s far from new. I’ve personally been using it on several of my rifles, and after a ton of hands-on time, I had to bring it to our catalog. Why? Because it's that good.
First Impressions
Let’s take a look at it on one of my personal rifles. The Kung Fu Grip doesn’t just win points for having the coolest name in the AR accessory world—it legitimately feels excellent in-hand. It’s slightly smaller, with a bevel on the back, and even with my large hands, I can get a comfortable grip. If it works for me, odds are it'll work for you.
Ergonomics and Comfort
The key selling point? The 12° angle. If you're running a shorter stock or just don’t fully extend your stock, this grip drastically improves your wrist angle for shooting. Compared to a traditional A2 grip, the comfort is night and day. There's no more awkward wrist bend—just natural alignment.
And if you’re running a longer stock? It still feels great. The bevel isn’t just a design choice—it accommodates the steeper screw angle found on standard AR lowers, making installation a breeze.
Fit and Compatibility
The Kung Fu Grip fits standard mil-spec AR-15 lowers perfectly. While it might not be compatible with some custom or unique lower receiver designs that have unusual rear geometry, it fits flawlessly on standard setups—whether it’s an AR-15, a SIG MCX, or similar platforms.
Color Options
Brownells currently carries the grip in several colors:
-
Black (my personal favorite)
-
OD Green
-
Flat Dark Earth
-
Gray (a seriously underrated color)
This makes it easy to match your build whether you’re going for a tactical look or something more custom.
Durability You Can Trust
I had to ask—what's it made of? The short answer: it’s tough. Like, "you don’t need to worry about it breaking" tough. I got all kinds of technical info about chemical composition and polymers, but really—just know it’s built to last. If it's good enough for me, it’ll be good enough for your build.
Final Thoughts
In short, the Die Free Co Kung Fu Grip delivers. It's comfortable, thoughtfully designed, durable, and looks great on practically any build. Whether you're building a lightweight AR, a full-auto setup (yes, we tried it), or something in between, this grip deserves a spot in your gear.
