Reviews & Ratings for MDT Premier Vertical Grips — 19 reviews — Page 1

This is an amazing addition to my chassis that I bought for a competition. Now it was not an MDT chassis but a good one that is manufactured in the US and Veteran owned. I was using their grip when I decided to get this MDT grip. I had already shot the competition and did ok but after I put this grip on it made my rifle completely different!!! It is AR compatible and adjustable which are things I needed and didn’t have. Totally get this if you’re wanting an upgrade to your rifle!!!

My rifle came with the standard AR grip. This was an easy install and works perfectly.

Can't go wrong with MDT products. Are they quality? Yes. Are they are leader in the precision rifle arena? Yes. Are they pricey? Absolutely.
The grip just adds a different ergo to your hand position. You may prefer a more angled grip. But the product itself feels solid, it attaches securely and i've replaced all of my bolt action grips with this one.

Well built as expected but fitment isn’t as nice as I hoped for. I’m sure it’s designed to fit multiple styles of lowers but leaves gaps along the upper mating area.

Item has a large swell at the top of the grip, I don’t have the longest fingers, so I could barely get my fingers around it comfortably. Decided to go with the Anarchy Outdoors Penguin instead.

The grips fitment is horrible wont go together without some work and the screws that hold it together could be alittle longer especially on the top bolt

I needed a vertical rear grip on my Tikka TX3-Tac1 long range rifle. The MDT grip didn't fit perfectly but the Tikka is NOT an exact AR match for attachment. It does fit pretty well. The main problem I had is the screw thread pitches - not the standard 1/4 x 20 of a normal AR. The MDT grip is made in Canada and the Tikka is made in Scandinavia. Nothing matched so it was an easy job at the hardware store to get proper fitting screws and bolts. it does have a fair forward and back adjustment for trigger finger length of pull from the grip to the trigger which I imagine will be excellent. This is the first vertical grip with forward/rearward adjustment.

works great, easy installation. Using it on a custom AR 10 style precision 6.5 Creedmoor 24" rifle.

Nice looking grip when assembled, however you will need to file down on the center of the two halves to lessen the gaps on the top and bottom of vertical grip.

I have smallish hands and this grip is a bit fat for me. There's no reason it couldn't be made thinner for a better fit. Too, the screws would be easier to start to thread if they were a bit longer. But making the grips a bit thinner would have the same effect as longer screws. There are sharp edges that don't need to be there, in the vicinity of the trigger finger, and again, in that area too the grip could be thinner. But a minute with a Dremel took care of some of those needlessly sharp edges. Making the grip solid in that area would have allowed for fully fitting it (it's hollow under the exterior). I might pour it full of resin so that I can carve away the bits that need to go.

That's the criticism I have and why I didn't give it 5 stars. Once installed they do what they're supposed to do nicely. A true zero degree vertical grip isn't exactly what I wanted, as I discovered after installation. Another grip that I tried allowed only that sort of orientation. My "trick" wrist likes a bit of angle and this grip allows me to have that not quite vertical grip. That's much better, and hugely better than a grip with lots of angle to it when shooting at the bench.

With a little tweaking of the mould by someone who knows what a pistol grip should be would make for a 5 star grip.
