The Leapers UTG MNTEL228GPQA combines a vertical foregrip with a 400-lumen tactical light in a single quick-detach unit. This aluminum-bodied grip light eliminates the need for separate accessories while providing essential illumination and improved weapon control for tactical applications.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional grip pods or standalone weapon lights, this integrated design saves rail space and reduces overall weapon weight. The quick-detach mechanism allows rapid removal without tools, while the 400-lumen output delivers sufficient illumination for target identification at extended ranges. The aluminum construction provides durability that polymer alternatives cannot match.
