Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between an A1 and A2 pistol grip?
The A1 grip has a slimmer, straighter profile with a smooth, more compact feel, reflecting the original M16 design. The A2 grip — the current military standard — is slightly larger, features a built-in storage compartment in the base, and has a more pronounced finger groove. The A1 grip is preferred for retro builds and by shooters who favor its classic, straight angle.
Is hardware included with the Luth-AR A1 Pistol Grip?
No, hardware is not included with this grip. You will need a standard AR-15 grip screw and lock washer to mount it to your lower receiver. These are widely available and inexpensive, and you may already have them on hand if you are swapping out an existing grip.
Will this grip fit my AR-15 or AR-style lower receiver?
Yes — the Luth-AR A1 Pistol Grip is built to mil-spec dimensions and is compatible with standard AR-15 and M16 pattern lower receivers. It should fit the vast majority of AR-15 platform rifles from major manufacturers. If you are unsure, verify that your lower accepts standard mil-spec pistol grips before purchasing.
