Thoughts on MOE grip
Thinking about putting one of these on my AR, or may the magpul MIAD grip. Whats your thought on them? Do these offer any advantages over the usual military style grip?
The standard moe is just meh to me but the moe+ is rubberised and feels really good in the hand. I like it so much I put a moe+ on all my ARs.
The standard, generic grips are way too narrow for me. I have a MIAD with the largest backstrip on my rifles. I'm also not a fan of rubberized grips. What I love about the AR style rifles is that there's something for everyone out there. Having that little compartment is neat but I've never actually used it.
The "k" is silent.
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.
Do you like the A2 grip OP? We cant decide for you. The MOE grip has a comfortable angle and doesnt have the damn hump that the A2 has. Many people like it for a reason. Like mutt said, try the MOE+ if you can.

I put one on my last AR build. I like it, it feels good. But I'm thinking about changing to a MIAD...As well as an STR stock, and changing all the furniture out to black. Kind of over the OD thing.
Big hands here, need big grip. Moe rubberized works well on my fighting rifles and I use the MIAD on the precision gun.
I have an MOE+ grip on the pistol that I just built and I love it. It fits in my hand very well and I really like the rubberized texture.

So far my favorite grip is the MOE+ (love the rubber coating) I also like BCM Gunfighter mod1 grip different angle and feels great to. I had a Starks grip and actually really liked it but just looked funny.
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"
