Viridian HS1 Hand Stop with Green Laser FDE with Picatinny Adapter

The Viridian HS1 Hand Stop with Green Laser in Flat Dark Earth (FDE) with Picatinny Adapter represents a significant advancement in AR-platform aiming technology. This is the industry's first hand stop to integrate a laser sighting device, combining directional grip control with active targeting capability in a single component. The pressure-activated laser activation button is positioned to function seamlessly across multiple grip styles, allowing operators to maintain control while engaging the laser without breaking their firing stance.

The HS1 delivers the protective hand-stop function operators expect—a berm-forward anchor point that prevents accidental overextension of the support hand during rapid fire or dynamic movement—while the integrated green laser system provides windage and elevation adjustment for precise target acquisition. The FDE finish matches contemporary tactical carbines and handguards, offering corrosion resistance suitable for both indoor duty and outdoor field conditions. The included Picatinny adapter ensures reliable mounting compatibility with standard AR handguards and rail systems. At 0.21 lbs, the HS1 adds minimal weight to the platform, making it practical for operators who require extended carry or patrol duty.

This accessory is designed for AR operators who use close-quarters carbines for tactical training, home defense, or duty applications where redundant aiming systems increase engagement reliability in low-light conditions or during rapid target transitions. The green laser wavelength provides superior visibility to the naked eye compared to red alternatives, particularly in outdoor daylight conditions. Operators who prioritize ergonomic consistency and multi-modal aiming benefit from having both iron-sight and laser reference points available without requiring additional rail real estate or adding complexity to the weapon system.
