MODS: Not sure if this is the correct forum for this question, so if it needs to be moved, by all means do!

My wife's rifle has an Ergo grip- it works well for me, but I think it's too large for my wife's smaller hands.  Her shots all seem to be grouping well at 9 o'clock, and while watching her shoot I noticed her trigger finger is on the bottom of the trigger.  She can't get her finger up any higher due to the thickness/diameter of the grip.

I'd like to replace the grip with a smaller diameter one.  Would the Magpul Miad do the trick?  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  As you all know, if you can't keep your wife happy, you can't be happy.

The MIAD grip is highly configurable, so at least one of the combinations of front and back panels should work out for her.

Magpul just came out with the MOE-K grip which is for small hands, it also has a slightly steeper angle

Moe K- grip? http://store.magpul.com/product/MAG438/39






"Designed as a drop-in upgrade for the standard AR15/M16 pistol grip, The MOE-K Grip provides a low profile, compact design and steeper grip angle compared to more traditional styles.



With a more vertical grip angle optimized for use on PDW (Personal Defense Weapon) configurations, the MOE-K Grip improves comfort and control on rifles that bring the primary hand in closer to the shooter's body or body armor.
The slim profile also makes it an excellent choice for shooters who prefer a smaller grip circumference.


All mounting hardware included."

That's not correct ARFCOM procedure. Keep the Ergo grip and use it as the first part in your next build.

Check out the Troy grip. It's very small and thin. Feels great.

Or the TangoDown battle grip. It's rather small at the top and encourages a high grip.

I know the drill!!  An end plate turned into a 14.5 middie!  But I didn't like the end plate so I put a Noveske plate on it.  I've since hidden the plate.  My spare lower parts scare the shit out of me and what might (probably will) happen.

To all, thanks again.

I guess it doesn't look cool enough for most people.

And yet just a few short years ago it was the hot flavor-of-the-day.
