Tyrant Designs CNC, an industry leader in high end, aftermarket AR grips announced that they have released their new line of grips, the LWP Grip. Available in black, red, blue and grey the Lightweight Pro series is CNC machined from a single piece of aerospace grade aluminum. The grips weigh in at a surprisingly light 3.4 ounces, thanks to some weight savings by milling out the entire inside of the grip as well as addition holes on the top.
“The Lightweight Pro tips the scales at 3.4 ounces and is lighter than the majority of available grips currently on the market. ( Yes we mean polymers too) ! We set out to create the lightest, most ergonomic grip on the market without compromising the structural integrity and quality. It is CNC machined from a single piece of aerospace grade aluminum and has a knurled back strap for additional adhesion. It instantly gives the operator the confidence needed in any weather or scenario, all while maintaining the consistency needed for a light weight build. Despite its lightweight it is incredibly durable and does not feel flimsy in the hand. If you are looking for the perfect grip for your lightweight build, look no further than the LWP!”
That weapon makes Eugene Stoner cry. Just because you can…
Yea, but do you have to lube it?
I couldn’t imagine how much dirt and debris will build up with lube on this, especially
on the magazine well.
GAF
YMMV
HIV/AIDS is more hetero than this.
If the standard AR is too heavy for you, you should probably just lift more weights. I’m sure they’ll sell plenty.
You guys will buy light weight packs and pouches though…
And plate carriers. And helmets. And other items.
All of which are much higher on my priorities list than weight savings on my AR’s pistol grip.
Naive question here, does this have combat applications, or is it strictly for sporting use?
Neither, it’s for posting on Instagram.
When you absolutely can’t figure out how to spend more money on an AR.

I was not aware that there even was a high end aftermarket AR grip industry.
I guess they just started one?
So they cut off a bunch of materiel…but not the fucking finger grooves?!
Regardless, I’m sure an Aluminum grip will be awesome in the sun, or the snow.
