Product Overview
Now shipping with our new custom Torx T20 fasteners!
Anchor® - A bi-directional vertical foregrip for M-LOK rail systems, with a 1 MLOK slot footprint, allowing it to fit inside the cutout of our XOS-H Scales, available in both Machined G10 and High Temp Polymer. Our Anchor foregrip is reversible, which allows for either a 90º or a more relaxed 70º angle. The Anchor forend grip features the same Honeycomb texture as our patented RailScales for a maximum non-slip grip. Our advanced design and machining make it lighter than nearly all other polymer vertical forward grips — no more sacrificing material strength for weight. Each Anchor foregrip has 236 machined faces and takes 46 minutes to individually machine on a 5th-axis CNC.

5 Perfect
Posted by Kenny M on Sep 17th 2019
I was hesitant to try a vfg since I've always used the Karve which is great but the Anchor is a whole new level. I won't be going back. I work in manufacturing so I understand the cost of machining a part like this and am very satisfied with the quality and finish. Well worth the money and extremely comfortable but also grippy.

5 Amazing!

A work of art! Don't waste your money on any other grips. You won't be sorry!

5 Worth every penny
Posted by Burdy on Sep 12th 2019
I had buyers remorse spending this much on this type of product, until it arrived, I now own three of them, in grey tan and black. It feels like part of your handguard, absolutely solid. It also works great as a barricade stop when shoved up against anything you want to use for stability. They work great for SBR's and full length rifles alike. My only wish is that this was marketed as a handstop or maybe an AFG so it could be run on a "pistol" as well without any legal guessing. It's obvious by design that this is designed to work with a c-clamp style grip as a stop and not designed to wrap your hand around it like a standard vertical grip. It would be very uncomfortable that way.

5 Unique but feels great
Posted by Pete W on Sep 12th 2019
Kind of a weird, asymmetrical style, but the angle actually feels great for my shooting style. Works as well for a hand stop as it is a typical VFG or barrier stop. Cool stuff guys!

5 Fixing my mistake, should've gone Railscales first
Posted by Sam on Sep 12th 2019
I tried like 4 other VFG styles out there because I was hesitant to drop the money for the Anchor. I should have just gotten it from the start, because this thing is amazing. Great ergo, great grip profile. Worth every penny.

5 Great on an SBR
Posted by Greg on Sep 12th 2019
The angle, length, & texture of this vertical foregrip is ideal for an SBR. I own two anchors, both on 556 SBR Ar-15s (one is 7.5" and the other 10.5"). They are mounted on Noveske NSR rails. The anchor gives you the perfect ergonomic weak-hand grip to drive the muzzle for faster target transitions.

5 Thrilled!
Posted by Kevin on Sep 12th 2019
I took delivery of my Anchor and LDAG yesterday. I'm thrilled with the products! For years I've been searching for a short VFG that can be used as a grip/hand wedge/barricade stop and Rail Scales hit it out of the park! I can't even remember how many different brands and styles I have tried. Most are too long but the Anchor and LDAG are perfect. Funny enough the LDAG is the same height as the Gear Sector VFG which has been my go-to for a while now. It's size and material are perfect, but it's round shape makes it less than ideal for use with a barricade, cover, wall, etc. The VTAC was on the right track with the flat front, but it was too long and I don't need/want storage of batteries. I want something that will work when slammed into a concrete wall or vehicle fender. The design y'all have is exactly what I would have made if I had the resources. The only change I'd suggest is offering them in different colors as you do with your scales. Spray paint tends to disappear quickly on parts used as these will be. Thanks and keep up the great work!

5 Wow!
Posted by Steve on Sep 12th 2019
I have been a follower of Railscales on social media for a while, and finally decided I needed to try out the Anchor. The price was always a turn off for me, but I can tell you that paired with the XOS scales, I have never been happier with my rifle from a performance standpoint and it looks amazing! Money well spent and I can't wait to see what other products they have coming. Railscales will continue to be the first place I look when accessorizing my rifle.
