You have 4 options.
1. Wear gloves. 2. File down your oversized lower. 3. Get another trigger guard that meets your specifications. 4. Nut up. |

Love mine.
Try the 'Pistol Grip of Shame' if you want another solution. Since it is another vendor's product, I'll leave you to Google it. |

magpul should have made it over sized, at least i can file it down to fit
now the only option of fixing this is epoxy it |

This trigger guard has been out for years, I have one installed on 12 different current rifles and have installed one on ever rifle I have built or purchased whether for myself, friends or customers.
The design has also been copied by multiple other companies and has received minimal complaints. If it does not fit your needs there are a multitude of other "winter" or enhanced trigger guards that will fit your wants. |

Sometimes the manufacturer of the lower drills the rear tg hole too high. I have a BCM lower like that. I found an older MIAD grip with the integrated trigger guard front strap and it solved the finger bite problem.

I have put the Magpul trigger guard on all my AR's. I like it. It doesnt bother my little finger at all.

talking from experience? |

Please post a picture of the trigger guard on your lower. I suspect the roll pin hole on your lower is not drilled in the typical place.
I have installed Magpul MOE trigger guards on all my rifles and almost every rifle I have ever built for other people specifically to eliminate the gap you are talking about. Although, the trigger guard does not completely eliminate the gap it does fill it enough that it does not irritate my finger. Again I suspect the pin hole on your lower is not properly placed which means it is a Bushmaster problem not a Magpul problem. |

It looks the same as the three rifles I have sitting here and the same as every rifle I have built or changed the trigger guard on in recent years . The only time I have experienced an issue with the ears on the lower continuing to irritate my finger after a Magpul trigger guard was installed was due to an out of spec roll pin hole or because the ears had an usually sharp edge to them. Manufacturers only machine away what is between the ears and it sometimes leave a sharp edge on the ears. None of the manufacturers seem to QC this area or deburr it. The simple fix is take the trigger guard off, lightly file the sharp edges and touch it up with a sharpie marker. |

It's either your lower, or you have girly hands
Mine has no fitment issues on a PSA lower. |

yes the easier fix is magpul make gen2 trigger guard 1mm thicker near grip end. there's no reason not to get gap filled completely View Quote I fail to see how Magpul spending 20 grand for a new mold to fix an issue that one person has complained about is easier than you taking a needle file and removing the burr that was left on your lower by Bushmaster. Maybe you should go into the Bushmaster forum and let them know how their lack of attention to detail by not deburring the roll pin ear is contributing to the discomfort of your middle finger and how they should immediately begin machining an undercut on the roll pin ears of their receivers to follow the lines of the Magpul trigger guard. It would take their CAD guy about 60 seconds to make the change. 10 out of the 11 people who replied in this thread have explained how the problem is not the trigger guard but you obviously do not want to hear that. |

Understand something, when you come through the door stomping, throwing a hissy fit and demanding your way it will not draw the kind of response you are looking for. Magpul is just going to ignore you. I try to provide useful information and/or solutions to people's problems. After reading my first response I may have come across as a little fanboyish but that was not my intention. However, I didn't call you a sissy, suggest to use a bigger purse or insult you in any way; I was simply trying to obtain more information to better formulate the proper response but when anyone I am genuinely trying to help turns on me I switch gears...

"it's standard mil-spec lower just like my other receivers" I have sent more than a handful of Mil-spec lowers and other parts back to manufacturers because they were out of spec. I'm curious though. You have only mentioned the problem with one lower, are you not experiencing this problem with the other lowers? "it fits just like the one shown in magpul's own promotional picture, the damn gap is not filled completely which is the result of magpul's poor design." The one in the picture looks just like the three complete rifles and one complete lower I have here. Two rifles have Ergo grips, one has a MOE grip and the complete lower has a standard A2 grip and none of them irritate my finger. "some people might not think that's a problem but lots of people do," That is simply not a true statement. There may be some people that have this issue but again it is not due to a fault in the trigger guard design it is because you and some other people have a sharp edge on the bottom of the roll pin ears. I have had the problem with my middle finger being irritated by the ears. 98% of the time the Magpul trigger guard fixed the issue. In 1% of the time it does not because the edge on the roll pin ears are to sharp; the simple fix is a needle file. n the other 1% of the time it was because I had installed the Aluminum Enhanced trigger guard and the edge on it was to sharp and causing the irritation; I fixed that with a needle file. "that's why a stupid piece of rubber sells for $3+SH and they are still in business and doing well (and amazon sells for $8 and got great reviews)" That stupid piece of rubber was designed to work with a standard mil-spec trigger guard. Guess mil-spec isn't all it's cracked up to be after all. "I am here to tell magpul to make their product better" The underlined part is where you went wrong. if they don't care I'm sure Magpul cares plenty... When it's really an issue. "fine with me, I just don't buy their trigger guard." Take your ball and go home. I'm sure Magpul and plenty of other people in here will not bat an eye. View Quote I have no vested interest in Magpul. I do not work for them, I do not draw a check or receive any type of compensation from them, I doubt a single person from Magpul would even recognize my user name here on ARFCOM and I know full well none of them would be able to pick me out of a crowd. With that said... Magpul, like a few other companies seems (to me anyways) to care about providing a good product at a fair price. They have show they are more than willing to address and fix known issues but they are also in the business of making profits so they, like so many others, have to weigh the benefit versus the cost. In your case the amount of complaints about this problem is a small minority and the problem with your lower was not created by Magpul and it is not a result of installing a Magpul trigger guard. The simplest and most immediate fix for your problem, whether you want to accept it or not, is a needle file. If you want to boycott Magpul until they meet your demands that is your choice but as you have seen you are not going to get much support or empathy as you thought. Take it from someone who has experience in getting their proverbial ass handed to them for going about things in the wrong way. You will draw more flies with sugar than salt but if it is your intention to walk into the bar to start a fight bring plenty of back up with you; don't expect to find it on site. |

I put them on almost all of my ARs, and have never noticed such a problem.

I tend to be detailed in my explanations to alleviate confusion and questions I also tend to ask questions to learn all the facts before coming to a conclusion (not always but most of the time); it is a result of my line of work but I am perfectly capable of getting to the point so let me sum it up. You came in here acting like a four year old throwing a temper tantrum because you're not getting your way, portraying this like it is some kind of well known widespread problem and even with every person in this thread telling you it is a common problem with lower receivers you still want to stick the blame where it doesn't belong.
Quoted:
it's really confusing why all the resistance? I've been asking myself that same question for a day and a half. I've also wondered exactly how many people it takes to through a single person, obviously the number is higher than eleven. you typed so much just to say the current magpul trigger guard is perfect and needs no improvement? I never said the trigger guard was perfect. I personally think there are two things that could be done to improve the design but I'm not demanding Magpul make changes or I won't buy them anymore; I do the modifications myself at my own cost. make it a bit thicker is better for everyone, there's nothing to debate this about, you make more people happy you are going to sell more of it, simple as that I don't disagree with that philosophy but I also know about how much it costs to make a mold and because, again, this is not a wide spread complaint it is not as simple as that. i have no interest nor hold any stock of magpul, nor will i buy any more trigger guards in the near future, what do i care? If you didn't care you wouldn't have created this thread in the first place and you certainly wouldn't continue arguing your point. if they are not smart enough to see an improvement all the best to them, i don't give a damn, and they are not the only game in town, there's no need for anyone to kiss up (except fanboys?) Take your ball and go home, no one here cares. For the record I'm not kissing anyone's ass. I've had words with other people in this forum about Magpul merchandise so I am not beyond throwing a fit every now and then. The difference is when I realized I was out of line I shut my mouth and put myself in time out. View Quote |

bushmaster's lower receiver is fine, it's standard mil-spec lower just like my other receivers View Quote Mildly off-topic: Since when is Bushmaster mil-spec? Every product I've had from them was commercial spec. And problem ridden. They have quite a bit of history with quality control issues and poor decision making. |

I just went back through this thread, there was one person who suggested a different product but they in no way supported your argument so bring forth the rest of the people you are talking about or accept the fact that you stand alone. Secondly, please tell us who you think are? Who are you to tell us we don't know what we are talking about? Or what we should or should not accept as fact? What are your qualifications to suggest this product is a "bad design"? Unless you are able to suggest otherwise you are basing your opinion limited observations, you have only indicated this to be a problem on one rifle. I'm not so naive as to think you are the only one out there but you are certainly the first I have heard of in 7 years of frequenting this forum. |

View Quote You are the first and only person I have ever heard voice a complaint on this product and I sale and build ARs for a living. This appears to be an issue with the specific way you are using and handling your rifle and not that of the trigger guard. If it doesnt fit your needs, find something that does. If you cant, the problem probably isn't the product but with your use of it. |

Did someone sprain their labia?
Actually, thats insulting to women. Not a single one of them, with a mil-spec trigger guard.....ever, and I mean EVER.....complained about it, mentioned it, or even thought about it when I was in basic. I wonder how anyone survives these days. |

Cormorantslayer knows his way around Magpul Trigger Guards. View Quote So does sgtlmj. Move on OP and get something else. It wouldn't be too hard to grind down your receiver ears a bit if they are giving you problems. You could even use some alumablack to cover up the exposed aluminum. |

Hell, the Magpul trigger guard even works great on my SIG 556.

There is an easy fix. It's not like you're going to be taking if off often. Just put some Black silicone on it and fill the voids so it's smooth. Or if you don't care if it's removable, put some JB weld paste in there.

This thread made my day better... got some laughs out of it.
I have the trigger guard on my DPMS lower (bought as a stripped lower), not one issue. That includes running the rifle with either hand. Maybe I got a tougher middle finger... Never had an issue with any Magpul product. They'll continue to get my money. |
