When I shoot a rifle, I like to use the tip of my index finger to pull the trigger. I just can't do this with the stock AR grip. The MOE gives me a grip that lets me comfortably get on the trigger the way I like. If I used the MIAD grip, it would end up being configured just like the MOE anyways so I just use the MOE. I tried the MOE+ and didn't like it. It felt like any rough use might tear the rubber coating on it. But that just might be my O.C.D kicking in.
