When shooting, it's super important that you are comfortable with your firearm. When you are comfortable, soon your gun will begin to feel like a part of you. Since all of our hands are different, it makes sense that the grip on a gun will be different for everyone. Customizing your grips is paramount to improving your accuracy and performance while shooting.
RailScales offers many different types of grips and hand stops for you to choose from, including vertical grips and our own Karve® Bi-Directional Stop that helps with forward hand control. In addition, we offer 1911 Grips that are made from our premium G10 material that is lightweight and thin. In conjunction with our rail covers, we've aimed to provide you with the ultimate in handling performance so that when you are shooting, your firearm is an extension of you. Below, we'll take a look at some of the benefits of custom grips, and we invite you to shop online with us today!
BENEFITS OF CUSTOM GRIPS
Offers a Psychological Advantage
Once you've gained a certain level of competency with your chosen firearm, the challenge of shooting accurately moves into a psychological challenge. It's about bringing your A game, especially if you've entered a local shooting competition. This is true in any sport, which is why the field of sports psychologists have erupted. Keeping your head in the game can make all the difference. When you have custom grips for your pistol or rifle that you are comfortable with, you'll have confidence in your gear. This will help you to perform your best every time because it eliminates the excuse of faulty equipment.
Creates Identical Grip
When you are trying to improve your accuracy and overall get better at shooting, the goal is to grab your firearm with the same grip every time. When you have the same grip, it's much easier to control the recoil and get set again quickly to fire repeatedly. Custom grips, including our 1911 grips, can help you achieve this goal. It also helps eliminate muzzle climb, which is when the barrel or muzzle of your firearm slowly begins to rise as you fire because of the recoil. When shooting you want to encourage muscle memory as much as possible so you can free your brain to concentrate on other tasks. Our G10 and HTP line of scales will help immensely in the goal of attaining an ideal grip on your AR15 or 1911. Gone are the days of the past where we just have to make do with what some no shooting hack puts out for an accessory. With time on range and down range, RailScales takes custom ar15 grips to the next level with experience in what works and what doesn't.
Forms a Solid Clamp
Clamping your firearm is when you have a solid grip with the palm of your hand around the grip of your pistol or rifle. The only part you want to move once you've gripped your gun is the finger you will use to pull the trigger. Many people use a two-handed hold on the gun in order to help steady it, decrease movement, and decrease the impact of the recoil. Here, your dominant hand will grip the gun, while your other hand wraps around the fingers of your dominant hand. Then place your thumb next to the other thumb. You'll want to push forward with your dominant hand and pull backwards with your weak hand. Solid clamps are easier when you have custom grips that are molded to fit your hand.
Is Moisture-Resistant
If you've been shooting at an outdoor range in the middle of the summer, you know that your hands can get pretty sweaty. This most definitely can impact your shooting if you just can't get a good grip on your firearm. Plus, having a super sweaty hand can impact your mental game and just not feel comfortable either. You want custom grips that are moisture-resistant and will help whisk away sweat so you can enjoy shooting in the warm summer months. RailScales' G10 custom grips are made from fiberglass laminate, a composite material. Plus, our custom grips are super thin, so you there isn't a lot of material for sweat to hang on to. Made with our textured grip that has spaces, you'll soon see that moisture does not hang out very long. Keeping the elements off of your rifle maybe hard, but our ar15 grips will help you retain a solid shooting platform for those wet days at the range or on a field op.
Feels Comfortable to You
Truly, when your custom AR-15 grips fit you like a glove and you can grab your 1911 or other pistol without trouble, you won't worry about the fundamentals of shooting as much. In fact, you want to eliminate all distractions and excuses while shooting. Aesthetics can help performance as well because you feel good about your firearm. This is why RailScales makes our rail covers, grips, and hand stops in many different colors and patterns to match your gun or to add style to it. Many people paint their AR-15 cool custom colors because they like the look. When you have a beautiful firearm you love, this fact can add confidence to your shooting as well. Ultimately, you want custom grips that feel natural when holding them, that fit your hands perfectly and don't bother you, and that keeps down the heat and ensures your hands don't move once placed. Comfort will translate into accuracy.
Making Your AR-15 Lighter
With RailScales custom grips, you can even make your AR-15 more lightweight. This will make the gun feel more comfortable as you carry it for long periods of time or practice your shooting. These textured grips give you a superior shooting experience, helping you to become much more comfortable with your firearm. Our products have a thin and lightweight grip that is strong, reliable, and comfortable.

Our G10 RailScales
When you use our RailScales in M-LOK, you can get the perfect fit for your firearm! Not only will you get strength and durability in your textured hand grip cover, these products are designed to fit perfectly to an M-LOK rail system. When you use a G10 RailScale for your AR-15, you will be able to attach the M-LOK system, which is much lighter weight than traditional handguards, such as the pic rail. With M-LOK now being king of the hill for the attachment interface, RailScales ar15 grips are in the same space for custom ar15 grips. No off the shelf mlok grip is going to compare to the G10 line of grips or the HTP line in terms of quality and grip texture. RailScales products are built to last and are a buy once, cry once type of AR 15 accessory.
Great Materials
When you are getting a custom grip for your AR-15, 1911, or other firearms, you want to ensure that you are purchasing materials that will last! Some grips are comfortable, but they only last for a few weeks or months with regular usage. This can be costly because you will be constantly replacing the grip. It can also be dangerous if you are unable to properly grip your firearm. However, the M-LOK RailScales are made from CNC machined G10 which is a high-pressure fiberglass composite material. This is made by layering glass cloth that’s been soaked in epoxy resin which is then compressed under heat and cured. This thin material is not only lightweight but incredibly strong and will be the longest-lasting grip you’ve ever used! RailScales also features 416 stainless steel hardware that makes for a superior and vibration-free attachment method for all of your firearms.
High-Quality Construction
In some cases, manufacturers can use all the right materials but their construction process leaves the final product feeling flimsy or not being machined properly so it doesn’t fit nicely onto your weapon. The custom grips from RailScales don’t have this problem! We are extremely careful to provide accurate and durable construction for all of the parts that we sell, giving you the peace of mind that you can count on us to make your grip right the first time. If you do have issues for any reason, you can always reach out to our team and we will work closely with you to make it right!
Custom Patterns Or Sizes
We know that there is a huge selection of firearms, and while most use similar components or options, it always feels best to utilize something that you truly love. That’s why we offer a variety of options for patterns and sizes in your custom grips! To see all of our options, you can visit our online shop today, and if you still have any questions, reach out to the RailScale team today!
