BCM Vertical Grip Short with Storage for Picatinny

The BCM Vertical Grip Short is a compact vertical foregrip with an internal storage compartment for AR-15 and M4 rifles, clamping to any 1913 Picatinny rail section.

The BCM Vertical Grip SHORT keeps the low-profile length that makes a stubby grip worth having — increased mobility and a decreased snag factor — while using the volume inside the body as a compartmentalized storage space. A spare battery, a bore snake, small parts: things you would otherwise leave in a pouch stay on the rifle. The forward angle increases the rigidity of the forearm while providing a more natural wrist angle, and the grip can be mounted in reverse to increase control when you grab handguard and grip together.

Flat sides with aggressive texture give better yaw control, so the rifle does not roll in the hand under recoil. The mounting is the other thoughtful part: spring-loaded clamps make installation and removal easier, the clamps themselves are reversible so the fastener can sit on whichever side suits your build, and the cross bolt is designed to work with improvised tools — a coin will turn it if the Torx driver is at home. Made in the U.S.A. from high-quality impact-resistant polymers.

How It Compares

For the same short body without the storage volume, see the Vertical Grip Mod 3 for Picatinny.

Key Features

• Internal storage compartment — the volume in the grip put to use
• Spring-loaded clamps — easier to fit and to take off again
• Reversible clamps — put the fastener on whichever side suits
• Cross bolt for improvised tools — a coin will turn it in the field
• Flat, aggressively textured sides — yaw control under recoil

Compatibility & Fitment

This is the 1913 Picatinny version. It clamps to any Picatinny rail section — a quad rail, or a rail ladder fitted to a free-float tube — and it will not fit an M-LOK handguard directly. Bravo Company USA also builds a KeyMod Vertical Grip SHORT, so check that you are ordering the interface your handguard actually has: a ladder of square teeth is Picatinny. Mount it where your support hand naturally falls when the rifle is shouldered, then re-check the clamps after the first outing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the Picatinny version or the KeyMod one?
This is the 1913 Picatinny version, which clamps to a Picatinny rail section. Bravo Company USA also builds a KeyMod Vertical Grip SHORT, and the two are not interchangeable. Check your handguard before ordering: a ladder of square teeth is Picatinny. It will not fit an M-LOK handguard directly.

What can I actually keep in the storage compartment?
Small items that are useful on the rifle rather than in a pocket — a spare battery for an optic, a bore snake, small parts. Bravo Company USA describes it as compartmentalized storage volume inside the grip body. It is not a large space, so think spares rather than a full kit.

How does it mount, and do I need a special tool?
It uses spring-loaded clamps that make installation and removal easier, and the clamps are reversible so the fastener can sit on whichever side of the rifle suits your build. The cross bolt is designed to work with improvised tools, so a coin will turn it in the field if you don't have a driver with you. Re-check the clamps after your first range session.

How does it compare with the Vertical Grip Mod 3?
The Vertical Grip Mod 3 for Picatinny is the same short-body idea without the storage volume, uses a direct-mount interface rather than clamps, and weighs 1.9 oz (54 g). The SHORT trades a little simplicity for somewhere to put things and for tool-free removal. Pick the SHORT if you will genuinely use the compartment.
