Viking Tactics just announced a new product to their lineup called the UVG or Ultralight Vertical Grip. The UVG is a skeletonized grip that comes in two models. The standard model which features horizontal grip grooves and the 45 model which has 45 degree grip grooves. Not only do these look really sweet but both models have a re-designed storage compartment and a quick detach DLOC clamp.
The idea was to do away with anything that isn’t really necessary to make it as lightweight as possible. To do this Viking Tactics shortened the grip compared to many other grips on the market and skeletonized the grip, meaning not only did they remove the core of the grip but also removed any excess weight by machining out the sides of the grip as well. This is what gives it its unique look. It obviously worked as they grip weighs in at a scant 3.8 ounces including the DLOC mount. Check out the specs and pics below.
