Magpul MOE

The Magpul MOE series has garnered quite a bit of attention from lots of different types of shooters and manufacturers. The Magpul Original Equipment Pistol Grips have now been brought into production, and are going to be available in all the standard Magpul colors.

For those who are unaware, MOE standards for Magpul Original Equipment.

I’ve been using the MOE pistol grip (and shooting pictures of them) for a little while now, and have no doubt at all that these will be as durable as the MIAD.

I’ve got a review written up as well as additional pictures for the MOE pistol grip at the below link for those who are interested.

I’ll update this thread with pictures, and answer whatever questions I can based on my experiences with the MOE products (I have no info to release as far as products until Magpul authorizes it). As more MOE products come online, and as Magpul authorizes the release of additional pictures and info for upcoming MOE items, that will be posted in this thread as well. Hopefully other people will do the same.

Hopefully the Magpul crew will be able to answer questions with everything else they have going on.

Is this the equivalent of the medium backstrap and smooth fronstrap of the MIAD?

3

That grip looks pretty much like exactly what I want. I have a Falcon Ergo on mine right now, and while passable that MOE grip is exactly what I want.

Good stuff.

Being a huge fan of the Hogue grip, I am holding out for the MOE Plus. Which if the grapevine is right, should be anytime now. :slight_smile:

5

Exactly. That is what most people use in their MIAD configurations evidently. I guess that makes me a freak running the other front strap. :smiley:

6

Until otherwise directed, I have no idea what you are referring to.

Stick,

The “Plus” version is the same grip with a rubber overmolding incorporated for a tackier grip. According to their catalog, it will retail for $3 more dollars than the plain, MOE version (which is the same polymer as the MIAD from what I understand).

8

Is the grip plug/cover the same or at least compatible with the MIAD?

I believe he knows what you are talking about, but is just stating that he can not say anything about it yet until he has permission. :smiley:

10

Same one from what I can tell, and all of my current MIAD cores drop into place and lock in without any problem.

11

I assumed so, but wanted to double check. I hope the MBUS sights are next!

I have a feeling that the MBUS are going to be a huge hit.

13

Thats nice, I like the price too! :slight_smile:

14

Finger grooves fit few well.

I prefer the full backstrap myself, but I’ll take a medium as well. The MOE is a welcome addition to the line.

15

Damn you Stick and your Magpul receiver!!!

The MOE looks nice, but for now Im gonna stick to my MIAD…Im enjoying it much more than I thought I would…and it goes well with my CTR, Trigger Guard, PMags w/Ranger Plates and XT Rail Covers :smiley:

16

I’m with you. Prefer the full but don’t mind the medium.

I do wish they had come up with a way to mold a “gapper” of some sort into the MOE.

17

If you use the Magpul metal triggerguard you won’t need a gapper.

18

I understand that, and that’s what I do with the MIAD, but it would be nice not to have to use that product and have the grip fill in the gap. Doubly so when the point of the MOE products appears to be reduced cost through simplicity. Better to buy one product, the grip, than to have to buy the grip AND the trigger guard (which, incidentally, has no real benefit other than filling the gap).

I’ve come to prefer, slightly, the MIAD over the Tango Down, but the fact that the TD covers the gap is an advantage of that grip for me.

19

Yeah I’d like to see that too. Or a MOE with a built in Magpul triggerguard but without the A2 notch/fingergroove (I hate that thing).

20

Now that would be a GREAT idea. I’ve been meaning to grind one of mine off and fill it in with epoxy.
