Phase 5 Weapon Systems Micro Stop – M-LOK – Black Anodized (MSMLOKBLK) – UPC 813318023469
Dial in your handguard control without extra bulk. The Phase 5 Weapon Systems Micro Stop for M-LOK rails (part MSMLOKBLK) gives you a compact, hand-indexing reference point that improves grip consistency, recoil management, and muzzle control—without crowding your accessories. Machined from lightweight aluminum and finished in black hard anodize, this low-profile stop is ideal for minimalist builds, short handguards, and shooters who want the function of a barricade/hand stop in the smallest possible footprint.
Why the Phase 5 Micro Stop stands out
Ultra-compact footprint: Adds control and indexing while keeping your rail clean and snag-free—perfect for SBRs, PCCs, AR pistols, and streamlined duty or competition rigs.
Positive hand index: Repeatable placement for your support hand helps stabilize the muzzle, improve shot-to-shot speed, and reduce over-travel when driving between targets.
Secure M-LOK mounting: Direct-attach M-LOK interface with steel hardware ensures a locked-in fit on modern free-float handguards.
Hard-anodized durability: Black anodized 6061-T6 aluminum resists abrasion, sweat, and harsh weather while matching most rail finishes.
Ambidextrous versatility: Mount forward or rearward, left or right side, at 6 o’clock or offset—use as a forward stop, rear brace, or light/laser index.
Lightweight by design: Barely moves the needle on your rifle’s balance while adding real control benefits.
Use cases
Competition & training: Establish a consistent hand position for faster transitions and tighter splits.
Home defense & duty setups: A tactile index point improves control under stress and in confined spaces.
Barricade work: Micro stop provides a stable contact surface for bracing against cover without overextending your hand beyond the muzzle.
Short rails: Ideal when space is at a premium around lights, tape switches, and sling QD cups.
Installation (quick guide)
Unload and clear your firearm.
Choose an M-LOK slot (6 o’clock or offset) that matches your natural grip.
Insert the T-nuts through the slot, set the Micro Stop, and hand-tighten screws.
Torque to M-LOK spec (commonly ~35 in-lb). Verify that T-nuts rotate and clamp properly.
Confirm screw retention after the first range session.
Tip: Position the Micro Stop so your wrist stays neutral with elbows slightly out. This encourages a strong, repeatable grip that tames recoil and improves tracking.

Less bulk, more access: Keeps your rail open for lights and switches while still providing a hard reference point.

Frequently asked questions
Q: Is this a vertical grip?
A: No—it’s a micro hand stop/index point that enhances control without the size of a vertical foregrip.
Q: Where should I mount it?
A: Most shooters place it at the 6 o’clock position near the muzzle end of their natural reach. Experiment with one slot forward/back to fine-tune.
Q: Will it fit polymer M-LOK rails?
A: Yes, as long as they are in-spec M-LOK handguards. Always verify torque to avoid crushing thin sections.
Q: How much does it weigh?
A: It’s engineered to be extremely lightweight (a few tenths of an ounce), adding control with virtually no balance penalty.
