The first thing we'll do is select the large face at the side of the handgrip:
We'll duplicate this by pressing Shift + D and move it back a bit:
To add a little more detail, let's run a couple of loop cuts across this face by pressing Ctrl + R + wheel up (rolling the mouse wheel changes the number of edge loops):
Then, we can drag the lower section back a bit by selecting the bottom-right edge and moving it to the Y axis:

We'll delete these unneeded faces. Next, let's grab this front edge and pull it forward:
Then, we'll extrude everything across the whole plane to get the basic shape. Before going further, you'll want to remove the faces inside of the mesh (right where...
