I was just wanting some input and opinions (positive and negative). I use a hogue AR15 pistol grip and I am satisfied. It's really comfortable and easy on the hand. Thanks...

I use the same as you. Me and my wife like the feel of it over the Toys-R-Us feel of the OEM plastic ones.
I know nothing, but I really REALLY like the MagPul MIAD, with the fattest insert.
I'm used to wooden stocks (M14, M1 Carbine) and high-capacity pistols, and I like a fatter grip. I like a grip fat enough that my fingers don't quite reach all the way around to meet the butt of my thumb.
Honestly, the smaller (USGI-sized) grips feel like they were designed for little kids or women.
I have small hands (I wear medium gloves), and the reach from the web of my thumb to the trigger was way too short with the A2 grip. The fat insert with the MIAD adds about a half-inch of "finger pull."
That's just my 2¢. I think everybody here will tell you that this is a subjective thing, much more a matter of personal preference than any objective "good, better, best" measurement.

Thanks. Each time I purchased an AR, the OEM was removed immediately and replaced with the Hogue. I've tried others, such as the Tangodown, and Ergo grip, and the new CAA with removeable backstraps, but I still prefer the Hogue.
I liked the Tango Down, but have come to like the Magpul MOE. My one beef is that I think it should come with an integral gapper. I don't like having to add the rubber one or spring for the ridiculously priced Magpul one that also has sharp edges.
FWIW, I can't stand the Hogue, or anything else with any kind of finger grooves, on any gun.
Yeh. This issue is very subjective. I can understand the finger groove preference thing, Rob. I guess that's why I also like the 3rd gen Glocks. Haven't tried the Miad yet, though. The CAA is somewhat of a knock-off. Thanks for the input. Does anyone have any failures to report, of any kind? Such as breakages, etc...?
TD and standard A2 for me
I like the MIAD and the old Lonestar Ordnance trapdoor grip.
i am also a big fan of the magpul MIAD. (i like it with the biggest backstrap insert and no fingergroove on the frontstrap. i generally like fat grips and dislike fingergrooves.)
the MIAD also seems to position my trigger finger well and facilitates a nice, smooth trigger press.
and you can store an extra set of batteries for your optic inside of it.
A2.
But I have one MIAD which I like.... there's just no need to change out my 4 other A2 grips.
