I just had the normal AR grip on it... I did get an Ergo grip with the gun too.. I absolutely hate it. This magpul grip puts it to shame, easily.scalce said:What were you using before?
It looks nice especially with the winter trigger guard.
It is just as light as a normal AR grip. not heavy by any means. The winter trigger guard is fixed... however, you can opt to not get the full MIAD grip kit, which doesn't include the winter trigger guard... and you can then purchase one of their swivel winter trigger guards... or any other brand that you'd prefer.amishclark said:how much does it weight? is that "winter trigger guard" fixed, or can it swivel out of the way? is it significantly wider than, say, an ergo?
it's hard plastic... the texturing is not sharp on your hand, but it definitely provides a secure grip... MUCH better than say the XD grip has. It is rough, yet not abusive rough.. it is just enough to provide a good grip.. it does not bother your hand at all.Corey G said:What kind of texturing is it, rubbered, or hard plastic, I am looking for something like the ergo soft rubber.
How do you like your CTR stock? I bought one, but it won't fit my damn buffer tube. Is yours the mil-spec one? does it have a rubber pad on the end of it? I'm considering ordering the mil-spec buffer tube so i can use the one I have, rather than wait for the commercial version of the stock, to get back in stock.Damon said:I really like the MIAD grip too.

I just need to get an upper, BCG, and some sights then I be done with my build.
It is a pain to change the grip backstrap. But I kind of like it that way, you know its not going to come loose while shooting.
I went the opposite direction because when I grab my AR grip I always ended up on top of, instead of in, the finger grooves of that hogue grip. They designed that grip for a much thicker fingers then my hands apparently have.mudfoot said:I went from the Magpul MIAD to the Hogue and will never look back. They are both great fits to my hand, but the Hogue afforded more of a positive grip.
Good choice on the stock also, Jed.

that's kind of what happens to me with that Ergo grip. My hand just couldn't consistently get onto the same spot.. I always found myself going slightly too high, or too low.. I think also I just didn't like how the back was curved.. it made my hand sit on it weird.mcb said:I went the opposite direction because when I grab my AR grip I always ended up on top of, instead of in, the finger grooves of that hogue grip.

As for the PMAGs I order mine from www.44mag.com Great service. Remember MagPul is just starting to make them and running black magazines first so if you want the soon order black. They will eventually do OD green and a coyote brown IIRC. They will also eventually do a windowed version and after that a translucent version.

I like it a lot, it does have the rubber butt-pad on it. But I have not shot with it yet.jednp said:How do you like your CTR stock? I bought one, but it won't fit my damn buffer tube.
