Since it’s launch, the original Vertical Crossover Grip (VCG) has received praise as a breath of fresh air in the AR grip space, merging the ergonomically favorable aspects of a precision style rifle grip, with a high level of natural dexterity from more traditional AR based offerings.
While the VCG proved to be ergonomically ideal for the vast majority of end users in it’s current form, there is a reason that the VCG-L, commonly referred to as the “Beavertail VCG” has surpassed it as Driven Arms Company's best selling, most re-ordered ergonomic upgrade.
The L model was created to even better fill the need set of those with larger hands. To accomplish this, we simply shifted the standard VCG rearward by nearly 1/4″ and introduced a modest beavertail. This allowed us to maintain all of the beloved existing ergonomics + form factors, and simply increasing that distance to the trigger surface for improved finger pad placement.
Features:
Reduced grip angle (5°) for improved ergonomics
Distance to trigger increased by .20″ for better finger pad placement in large hand sizes
Tapered lower ledge + optimized rear “hump” profile for maximum leverage in all shooting positions
1.45” Overall width for improved purchase and general comfort
Weight with hardware: 62 grams (~2.2 oz)
Storage capabilities supported with the addition of their FloorPlate (SFP)

I normally have to wrap some tape on most grips to get a better hold and create that extra bump in the back to fit my palm. This grip angle with the built in palm arch just melds to my hands. However I ord...Read MoreRead more about Really nice grip big improvement over

Better ergonomics creates a stronger grip on the gun

The more vertical angle of the Driven Arms grip allows a stronger grip on the gun, by straightening the angle of the wrist. The bent wrist position required with traditional grip angles makes the hand weaker on the grip. The vertical grip angle allows the wrist joint to perform at an anatomic angle that enhances grip strength and gun retention.

The palm swell feels good and encourages a high grip. The extra distance to the trigger makes finger placement more natural for those of us with large hands.
