This video from GUNBROS, featuring speaker Jared, explains the difference between a traditional A2 pistol grip and a more modern, vertical grip like the B5 Systems Type 23.

The discussion highlights how grip choice can impact shooting comfort and control.

Instruction from JaredAF details the critical relationship between grip and trigger control on an AR-15. He emphasizes a firm grip with the lower three fingers to pre-load the index finger, enabling a clean break of heavier Mil-spec triggers (5-8 lbs) without disturbing sight alignment. This technique is vital for maintaining accuracy, especially with standard trigger weights.

This guide details how to optimize grip and safety manipulation on AR-15 platforms, comparing the classic A2 grip to modern designs like Daniel Defense.

This product spotlight from Brownells features B5 Systems' P-Grips for the AR-15 platform. Gun Tech Caleb details the two variations: the Type 22 and Type 23. The Type 23 includes a beavertail designed for mil-spec forged lowers, while the Type 22 omits it, making it suitable for billet or non-standard lowers, and also for users who prefer not to have a beavertail. The video highlights the P-Grip's more vertical angle, which aids in control access, especially on carbines with short stocks. It also notes the absence of the A2's front finger-ledge and the grip's aggressive, non-slip texture that is comfortable on the hand. The P-Grip is available in Black, FDE, Coyote Brown, OD Green, and Wolf Grey. The hollow design allows for the use of B5's optional Grip Plug, which can store items like batteries.
