Reptilia AK Grip

Reptilia, a company known for its high-end, one-piece tactical scope mounts, is now further expanding its rifle accessory product lines. In addition to selling stocks and grips for AR-15 pattern firearms, Reptilia is now offering AK/Kalashnikov platform accessories, too. The company just unveiled the new Reptilia CQG AK pistol grip for AKs.

The Reptilia CQG AK grip serves as an upgrade to the traditional Soviet-era design seen on most AK pattern rifles in the United States and around the world. CQG AK grips bring a more vertical grip angle that allows for a higher hand position in order to improve the basic ergonomics in shooting and handling AK pattern rifles and carbines.

Reptilia customers asked for a better grip solution for their AKM pattern rifles, and the CQG AK carries forward the same focus on ergonomics, durability, and simplicity found in other products from Reptilia

Reptilia CQG AK Grip Features

  • Optimized for AK Platforms: Fits most AK/Kalashnikov pattern rifles and large-format pistols
  • More vertical grip angle promotes a higher, more controlled hand position
  • Enhanced beavertail improves comfort and weapon control
  • Aggressive texturing for a better grip in all weather conditions
  • Built from lightweight and durable reinforced nylon
  • Made in the USA

Reptilia CQG AK grips are available in the following colors: black, flat dark earth, peanut butter, field drab and grey.

Another benefit to the Reptilia CQG AK grip is that because it’s 100-percent American made, a grip like this counts towards maintaining 922(r) legal compliance with regards to imported rifles. Reptilia retails this grip for $24.95. To learn more about Reptilia’s new CQG AK grip, or other rifle accessories and optics mounts made by this company, visit reptiliacorp.com
