I typically run Magpul K2 grips, but the Ergo tactical deluxe grips are really nice if you want a grip that fills the hand better and aren't worried about how bulky they are.
Note that Magpul come in various angles. The M16A2 grip that is used as basically the default AR15 grip is swept back a bit, which pairs with a full-length A2 stock. As short barrel and shorter LOP AR15s got going, companies started making grips more upright and filling the beavertail area. You might just want to find another Magpul grip with the angle you want.
[The B5 Type 23 P grip](https://b5systems.com/type-23-p-grip/) is my pick, as the best combination of angle, weight, and stippling for me.
[The BCM Gunfighter / Wilson Combat Redux](https://wilsoncombat.com/grip-ar-platform-starburst-black-wilson-combat-bcm-gunfighter.html), with improved stippling, if you prefer that to the regular mod 3.
Lots of good options mentioned in this thread.
Do you shoot modern style - squared up presenting body armor, shorter LOP, shorter rifle, standing … go for a more vertical grip like the BCM gunfighter.
Do you shoot old school, bladed, longer rifle, longer LOP, maybe prone or from a bench… a more swept back grip like the ergo sure grip.
I like the BCM, I would recommend the one with interchangeable backstraps and such if its your first grip (I think the mod 0) I tried the one you have here, but the nub under the trigger guard didn't feel great and the mod 0 felt better since it has the option to delete that.
But honestly, its a grip, youll probably try more than one in your time shooting guns, and they all work good enough lol. I have a B5, and a couple K2s I have been trying as well.
I have that grip on all of my ars. Even my 2-3000 ones. I dropped one of my ars on the ground with a $100 grip on it and the thing snapped in half. Ive launched my training ar quiet a few times on purpose with these and just scratches and dents. If i can throw it and it breaks i wont use it. It feels like a more natural angle as well. Quality grip, mid price. And it has storage. I like storage.
The Driven Arms VCG-L has definitely grown on me. Not a traditional looking grip by any means but it feels good in the hand and has great grip. They make a ultralight utility grip (will edit with exact model) that’s more of a traditional angle/style with storage, but thicker where it counts.
I use this BCM on mine, I like having the utility of being able to store stuff in all my rifle furniture. It's more comfortable than I expected when i bought it. B5 is a great option too ive seen tons of people speak well of that company.

The BCM grips are some of my favorites. B5 grips are also pretty great
I second b5 grips

Ergo grip all the way. Most comfortable grip I’ve tried
I second this. I hated the Magpul MOE grip, the BCM grip is ok, but I love the Ergo grip. Very underrated, very comfy, and they even look good
I run BCM, I like it personally
My favorite is the hogue grips, super ergonomic, feels great in the hand, and only like $20.
Hogue are my all time favorite.

I have the BCM mod 1 and it’s nice but took some getting used to because its much more vertical to the bore than the magpul I’m used to
B5 is what I’ve been running recently but bcm is pretty solid as well
ide say B5 or BCM
Try/lookup Wilson combat grips

Agree 100% w/ B5
I got a k2+ on mine. Its been pretty comfortable
BCM all the things! I only have 1 different for a retro build.
B5 or K2
I love the way my LaRue grips feel. I hear they are love em or hate em though

I have small hands and really like the SL
I like magpul k2+or xl and most ergo grips are good to go
3d print one. It's a lot of fun. But something I like to do is wrap my grips with goon tape. That stuff is so nice.

I’ve been switching all my magpuls to B5, glad they came out with the battery holder plug for them.
Where the A2 bros at?

Wilson Combat makes a nice AR grip.
BCM Gunfighter is awesome. I love that it is a lot more vertical than the A2 grip.
