Description
The Magpul RVG (Rail Vertical Grip) is one of those simple upgrades that just makes a rifle feel better in your hands. It's a lightweight polymer vertical foregrip built to clamp onto any 1913 Picatinny railed handguard, and it does exactly what a good foregrip should: puts your support hand in a natural spot, adds control, and helps you swing the muzzle around faster. At right around 2.6 ounces, you'll barely notice the added weight, but you'll feel the difference the moment you shoulder the gun.
How the RVG Handles on the Range
Magpul designed the shape to work two ways. You can wrap your hand around it for a traditional vertical hold, or run it thumb-forward using the thumb break method taught by Magpul Dynamics. The grip sits your support hand high and close to the bore centerline, which keeps things feeling stable and pointable, especially useful for tighter, faster shooting. The aggressive TSP texturing gives you a solid purchase whether your hands are sweaty, wet, or gloved up.
Where the RVG Fits
This one is built for platforms with a bottom Picatinny rail rather than M-LOK slots. That covers plenty of AR-15 and AR-10 builds with railed handguards, older quad-rail setups, and even bullpup shotguns and shotgun forend rails. It mounts with two screws and includes a universal mounting rail so it can also attach to Magpul MOE and ACR handguards that don't have a continuous Picatinny section. If your handguard is M-LOK or KeyMod, you'd want the M-LOK MVG instead, or add a short rail section.
Built the Way Magpul Builds Everything
Made in the USA from Magpul's proven reinforced polymer, the RVG is tough, low profile, and priced to be an easy add to just about any build. Its vertical footprint keeps your rail real estate open for lights, lasers, or whatever else you're running up front. It's a no-nonsense grip that has earned its spot as a go-to among folks who want reliable control without overthinking it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Magpul RVG fit an M-LOK or KeyMod handguard?
The RVG is designed to clamp onto a 1913 Picatinny rail, so it won't mount directly to M-LOK or KeyMod slots. If your handguard is M-LOK or KeyMod, you'd need to add a short Picatinny rail section, or go with the Magpul MVG, which bolts straight into M-LOK. For any platform with a continuous bottom Picatinny rail, the RVG drops right on.
How does the RVG attach and how hard is it to install?
It mounts with two Allen screws that clamp the grip onto the Picatinny rail. Installation is quick and straightforward, with all the necessary hardware included in the box. Most folks have it on and locked down tight in just a few minutes.
Can I use the Magpul RVG on a shotgun or bullpup?
Yes. As long as the platform has a bottom 1913 Picatinny rail, the RVG will clamp on. That includes shotgun forend rails and bullpup shotguns like the Kel-Tec KSG, along with AR-15 and AR-10 rifles running railed handguards.
What's the difference between the traditional grip and the thumb break method?
With a traditional hold you wrap your whole hand around the grip like a standard vertical foregrip. The thumb break method, taught by Magpul Dynamics, runs your thumb forward along the handguard for a more modern, controlled hold. The RVG's shape is built to work well either way, so you can run whichever feels best to you.
