The Magpul MIAD Type 2 Gen 1.1 grip kit brings customizable ergonomics to your AR-platform rifle. Built from aggressive textured gray polymer, this drop-in grip replacement lets you dial in the feel and function that matches your hand size and shooting style—without the fuss of a complete rebuild. The MIAD (Mission ADaptable) design uses swappable front and rear straps so you can tune angle, texture, and palm swell to your preference. Whether you're running a specialized 7.62×51 receiver or working through different mission profiles, this grip adapts instead of forcing you to compromise.
The Type 2 variant ships with taller backstraps optimized for larger-frame 308 ARs—think Armalite AR-10A/B/T, DPMS LR308, KAC SR25, LaRue OBR, LMT .308 MWS, Palmetto PA10, and Smith & Wesson M&P10 platforms. That means better hand positioning and control on rifles where a standard grip leaves you reaching or cramping. All mounting hardware needed for installation is included, so you're ready to fit it straight out of the box.
Magpul's signature attention to detail shows in the aggressive texture—aggressive enough to keep your grip solid in gloved or wet conditions, without feeling like sandpaper in your palm. This is a no-frills upgrade that focuses on what matters: a more natural, controllable grip that lets you shoot better.
