Black Collar Arms Gen2 Priapus AR Grip Review

Featured in:

When it comes to rifle grips, most AR shooters have had to choose between bulky, precision rifle designs and lightweight, tactical options. Black Collar Arms thinks you shouldn’t have to compromise, and their Gen2 Priapus Grip may be the answer.

Stronger, Lighter, and Better Looking

The second-generation Priapus Grip transitions to precision injection molding, utilizing a tungsten-infused polymer blend. The result is a grip that’s both incredibly strong and dense, with a warm, premium feel you don’t normally associate with AR furniture. At just 2.9 ounces, it manages to be light without feeling flimsy.

Two Styles, Same Mission

Shooters now get a choice:

  • Grip Tape Version – Featuring recessed fields for skateboard-style grip tape, allowing you to customize textures and colors.
  • Molded Texture Version – New for Gen2, this option features built-in texturing, including sand-style grit on the sides, paired with aggressive diamond plate on the front and back straps.

Both variations retain the same shape that made the original Priapus stand out. This hybrid grip combines the hand positioning and control of a PRS-style grip with the compact size of an AR-compatible design.

Built for Any Rifle, Any Role

Whether you’re running a long-range PRS rig, a lightweight hunting carbine, or a shorty subgun, the Priapus Grip was designed to feel at home. Its symmetrical design, mild palm swell, arched backstrap, and nearly vertical front strap drive the shooter’s hand into a repeatable, indexable firing position.

In practice, this means more control, better consistency, and faster follow-up shots — whether you’re shooting off a barricade or running and gunning.

The Details

  • Material: Tungsten-infused polymer
  • Weight: 2.9 ounces
  • Height: 4 1/8 inches
  • Max circumference: ~5 1/8 inches
  • MSRP: $24.99 (molded texture), $29.99 (grip tape model)

Final Thoughts

Black Collar Arms leans into the “obscenely masculine” theme with the Priapus name, but the real story here is performance. This grip offers the ergonomics of a precision rifle grip with the size and speed of a tactical AR grip, and at a lower price than before.

It’s not just another AR grip. It’s a rethink of what an AR grip can be.
