I use my AR for pretty much anything you can do on a range with a rifle. What I like most is getting on my belly, and trying to shoot tiny groups with my scope, or bang away at a gong with my irons. Over time I have come to the conclusion that I really dislike the angle of the A2 Pistol Grip. I currently have mine wrapped in some kind of elastic wrap and held in place with a grip sleeve for a G-22 I no longer have. It's a little better in its current chubby state, but still not quite right. I'm pretty sure part of it is the effect of a chronic wrist injury, I believe that a more vertical grip is the answer. I'm going to replace the A2 Pistol Grip, but before I do so I thought I'd ask what are your opinions are on what is available.
 
Lots available . I use both the Tango Down BG-18 reduced angle . Most of my AR's had the BG-17 so that is what I'm use to. The BG-18 does not have storage compartment so less $$

I also have the Bravo Company Mod 1 ( high backstrap ) . The backstrap is higher than the BG-18

To soon to tell which I prefer .

As far as reduced grip able , its more natural for me bench shooting ( similar to grip angle of my bolt guns stocks ) .

Not completely sold on the reduced angle for non bench shooting yet , but probably too soon to tell.
 
Bravo company MOD 3 is a decent reduced angle grip if you want to try something that isn't as angled as the Umbrella corporation Grip 23 which is reduced even further. Possibly the closest to straight up and down.

I have two AR's with the UC grip as they do really well in the "square to target" stance and keep the chicken wing tucked in tight to the body. gunfighter/CQB type use.
 
Magpul Moe K2+ on one and BCM Mod 1 on the other. Both have that more vertical then stock angle, which I like. I like the rubber on the K2+, but it feels a little small in my hand. I'm trying to get a BCM Mod 3 to try out, it's supposed to be a bit, er, girthier...
