A vertical forward grip is a vertical grip that is designed to attach to a firearm for the forward hand (or "off hand"). These aid in the maneuverability of the firearm, since the natural angle of a persons outstretched hand is more oriented to grasping objects at a vertical angle, rather than a horizontal one perpendicular to the body. The vertical forward grip is also used to steady firing and counter the effects of recoil, theoretically resulting in far more accurate automatic fire. It commonly incorporated as part of a Rail Integration System, as shown in the image on the right.
