RK-1 20mm Vertical Short Grip
Description
RK-1 Zenitco-Style Vertical Grip — Russian Special Forces Ergonomics
The Problem
The Zenitco RK-1 is the standard-issue foregrip of Russian special forces — a chunky, aggressive grip designed for gloved hands and extreme conditions. This RK-1-Style Vertical Grip replicates the distinctive RK-1 profile with its flared base and aggressive texturing at an accessible price. For AK and AR builds inspired by Eastern Bloc special operations aesthetics and ergonomics.
Why This Solves It
After handling hundreds of products in this category, our benchmark is simple: would we use this on our own gear? This one passes that test.
Key Features
- RK-1 Signature Profile: The distinctive flared base and chunky body are instantly recognizable to anyone familiar with Russian SOF loadouts. Beyond aesthetics, the flared base prevents your hand from sliding off the bottom during aggressive firing.
- Glove-Optimized Size: The oversized grip body is designed for gloved hands — standard issue for Russian operators in cold-weather environments. Works equally well with bare hands, providing substantial gripping surface.
- Aggressive Texture: Deep diagonal texturing on all four sides provides maximum traction. The texture pattern is inspired by the original RK-1 and provides the same aggressive grip character.
- Picatinny Rail Mount: Standard 20mm rail interface with a steel cross-bolt. Compatible with AK railed handguards, AR-15 rails, and any MIL-STD-1913 rail system.
- Reinforced Polymer: The glass-filled polymer body resists impacts and harsh solvents — built for environments where gear gets abused.
