Picked up a Robinson XCR and thinking about switching grips as the Hogue (iirc) pistol grip on it just doesn't feel big enough for my hands (I'm about 6'3").

Can you guys suggest a grip that might work better? I've heard good things about the Magpul MIAD, though like the textured feel of the Hogue finger grooved styled ones.

Thanks!
 
either MIAD or CAA both work pretty well with my mitts.

Pretty hard to beat the magpul MIAD in my opinion. Might be interested in the Tango Down BG-17, slightly larger then their BG-16.
 
There are many different sizes of Hogue's... The MIAD is also nice... There are loads of options!

You might consider getting a MIAD or something similar and the get some rubbery tape stuff (its got adhesive on one side and a nice grippy rubber on the other). I've seen some guys do it and it gives the MIAD a two tone look while being extremely functional.
 
If you want the grip to be big, forget the MIAD and just get an MOE for half the price. It's already configured to maximum size for larger hands.
 
Thanks guys! Looks like Magpul coolaid again.

Claven, I haven't seen the MOE for sale anywhere, just the MIAD at Wolverine (where I was going to buy). Do you know anyone who carries it?

Cheers!

Actually the MOE is smaller then the MIAD with the biggest back strap. My Novy came with a MOE and it's definitely smaller then the MIAD I had on my LMT. I'm going to have to replace it soon, theres that big of a differance...

Yea I think the MOE is a cheaper alternative to the MIAD, but the MOE is sized to the medium backstrap of the MIAD... I think the MIAD would be good (or something that comes with options) would be good. I choose the MIAD as well and played with the different options until I found something comfortable.

Good luck

The new ERGO deluxe grips are big and fat. Questar and One Shot list them.
They are thicker than the miad grip.

Those look super comfy!

Anyone know if the ERGO dark earth colour matches Magpul DE? Got to, uh, coordinate with the other accessories. (Edit: Google tells me that yes, it will match)

Yes, MOE is basically the medium, no notch configuration.

MIAD for those who need to configure their own, ERGO grip is pretty chucky and obviously sticky.

Consider your choice for medium vs large grips if you shoot at all with gloves.
