Overview

Upgrading your AR15 can enhance not only its functionality but also your shooting experience. In this guide, we focus on the installation of the BCM Gunfighter KAG (Kinesthetic Angled Grip), a hand stop that adds versatility to your rifle setup. Let's walk through how to effectively install this accessory to improve your grip and control while shooting.

What This Video Demonstrates

This video offers a step-by-step guide to installing the BCM Gunfighter KAG on an AR15 equipped with an M-LOK handguard. The KAG is designed for positive hand placement, granting users the ability to index their hands consistently while also providing additional control over the rifle. With its low-profile design, it minimizes bulk while maximizing function, making it an excellent choice for AR constructions.

Step-by-Step Explanation

The first step in our installation involves the preparation of the AR15's handguard, specifically the M-LOK slots where the KAG will be attached. M-LOK is known for its ease of use and secure fittings, which makes the installation process straightforward.

1. **Positioning the KAG**: Determine where you wish to place the KAG on the handguard. The recommended spot allows for a comfortable grip while shooting and can be adjusted based on your shooting style.

2. **Inserting the KAG**: Slot the KAG into the M-LOK rail and ensure it is aligned properly. The installation involves a cam mechanism that secures the grip firmly as you tighten it.

3. **Tightening the Grip**: Using the included allen wrench, tighten down the KAG. It’s important to ensure it’s secure but avoid over-tightening, which could damage the accessories. A small amount of thread lock is included to prevent loosening over time.

4. **Testing the Installation**: Once installed, check for stability and positioning. The grip should feel natural and offer a solid point for your hand to maintain control of the weapon. It should also provide versatility for various shooting positions, including a dynamic c-clamp method.

Key Tips

  • Place the KAG where it feels most comfortable for your shooting style; you might want to experiment with different positions while at the range.
  • When tightening the KAG, keep it finger-tight to allow for future adjustments without hassle.
  • Familiarize yourself with the functionality of the KAG in a controlled environment to ensure it complements your shooting technique.

Key Takeaways

The BCM Gunfighter KAG is an effective addition to an AR15 build that enhances grip stability and control. Its installation is user-friendly and adaptable, making it a great choice for any shooter looking to improve their rifle handling. Whether you are utilizing it for competitive shooting or personal defense, this upgrade can make a substantial difference in your shooting experience.
