XTS Hand Stop M LOK Compatible Black XTS HSTP UPC 767820115931
Product Description
The XTS M-LOK Hand Stop in Matte Black (MPN: XTS-HSTP) is a lightweight, low-profile forend accessory designed to improve weapon control, hand placement consistency, and muzzle safety on M-LOK compatible handguards. Engineered with a minimalist ergonomic profile, this hand stop provides a tactile reference point for the support hand, allowing shooters to leverage C-clamp and pull-back grip techniques without adding bulk or weight to their forend assembly.
Molded from high-impact, heat-resistant polymer, the XTS-HSTP is built to withstand high barrel temperatures, recoil forces, and harsh field environments. Beyond indexing, the forward face functions as an effective barrier stop, enabling positive bracing against barricades, walls, or vehicle frames for stabilized firing positions. On short-barreled rifles (SBRs) and AR pistols, it acts as a physical safety barrier to prevent the support hand from slipping forward toward the muzzle or hot barrel extension.
Including low-profile steel M-LOK T-nuts and mounting screws, the XTS-HSTP attaches directly to standard M-LOK handguard slots. Backed by XTS quality standards, it delivers maximum handling efficiency and safety for modern AR-15s, PCCs, and tactical carbines.
Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:
Fitment Matrix: Fits standard M-LOK slots on aluminum and polymer handguards across AR-15s, AR-10s, PCCs, and tactical shotguns. (Note: Can be mounted facing forward or backward depending on user preference—facing forward acts as a push/barricade stop; facing backward acts as a pull-back index point).
- Perform a complete firearm safety check: drop the magazine, lock the bolt rearward, and visually inspect the chamber to verify zero live rounds are present.
- Insert the steel mounting screws through the counterbored holes on the XTS-HSTP hand stop body.
- Thread the steel M-LOK T-nuts onto the screws, leaving a gap slightly wider than the handguard wall thickness.
- Align the T-nuts with the desired M-LOK slot on your handguard and press the assembly flat against the handguard rail.
- Tighten the screws clockwise until the T-nuts rotate 90 degrees to cross the slot and lock against the interior wall. Torque to manufacturer spec (25-30 in-lbs for metal rails, 15-20 in-lbs for polymer rails).
- Verify the hand stop is completely flush and immobile under firm hand pressure.
