    It slides off the bottom just like removing one from the handlebars on a bicycle.

      Assuming you're talking about the older style hard rubber grips with the finger grooves that look like this:

      I hope you're strong because this will be the hardest thing you do all day. There is a deep groove at the top of the aluminum part behind the rubber where a lip on the rubber part seats into to prevent it from sliding off, which makes them very difficult to remove. The best way I've found to remove it is to;

      - leave the foregrip bolted securely to the rail but remove all other parts
      - place the rail upside down on carpet so that the foregrip is pointing up
      - place your foot on top of the rail close to the foregrip
      - grasp the rubber grip and pull as hard as you can for as long as it takes
      - don't throw your back out
