This version of the ESG is cut around it, so the gauge stays readable with the grip in place — which is the whole point of having a gauge on the gun rather than on a fill station.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMonk offer the Article II grip in two regulator forms: a Cat.5-style housing with the pressure gauge facing downwards, and a modified housing with the gauge at the front of the grip base. This is the version cut for the second of those. Monk state the grip is compatible with all ESG regulator housing versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything else follows the ESG pattern: the same angled geometry Monk use on their Article I grip, in the fitment the Article II needs. If you have moved up from an Article I and liked the grip, this is the equivalent part rather than a compromise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:16px;color:#1B3A6B;margin:18px 0 8px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 18px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#1B3A6B;color:#fff;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:7px 12px;text-align:left;\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:7px 12px;text-align:left;\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eProfile\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eAngled, with front gauge cut-out\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003ePlatform\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eWolverine Heretic Labs Article II\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eRegulator type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eFront gauge — dial at the front of the grip base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eColours stocked\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003ePurple and Red\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eGrip style\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eErgonomic bulge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eDesigner\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:7px 12px;border:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eMonk Customs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:16px;color:#1B3A6B;margin:18px 0 8px;\"\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMonk categorise the ESG as an aluminium grip but publish no weight figure, and we will not state one we cannot source.

If the dial sits at the front of the grip base you want this one; if it faces downwards, you want the Cat.5-style bottom gauge version, which we can order in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich gauges does the cut-out clear?\u003c\/strong\u003e Monk do not publish a compatibility list of gauge models.
