This foregrip shares geometry with a few other nerf blaster foregrips. One in particular that only costs $8 that I can never seem to find in stock anywhere. It's a great grip, and by all means you should purchase it and support that company. $8 is not a lot, and that grip is way stronger than this could ever be.

This has been modified since I originally posted it, and you can see the differences in some of the pictures. I've added another model orientation, and also removed those pointy bits near the front of the pic rail clamp. Those were a total oversight on my part.

 

Print Settings:

There are two models to choose from depending on what orientation you want to print at. Please select the appropriate model for your intended print orientation, because the horizontal holes are elongated to allow for filament droop in the overhangs. (See pictures)

There are cases to be made for the strength of either orientation, so I will let you decide. After printing and using one, I believe the 45deg model to be the strongest. But I also prefer the ergonomics of the upright model, as it has slightly more material at the top finger groove.

If you intend to use this on a springer, please print it in TPU. When I originally designed this, I used PETG. That was naive. It worked great until it didn't. There's just not enough material there. Nylon would probably work too, but who prints that?

Arrange supports for each model as shown in the pictures.

Minimum settings for springers:

0.2 layer height max and 5 walls with a 0.4mm nozzle.

0.3 layer height max and 3 walls with a 0.6mm nozzle.

 

Hardware needed:

2x M4x25 Socket Head Cap Screws

2x M4 Nuts
