Magpul Triggerguard
Thu, 10/21/2004, 15:09Remember when I was bitching about how the Battlegrip didn't allow the winter triggerguard to function? No?!? Well, I was... Anyhow, I recently found a solution that’s a lot less ghetto than my idea of bending the stock guard.
Magpul Industries is going to send me to the poorhouse with all their gear. I recently bought one of their MIAD triggerguards from Bowers Tactical. Unlike my idea, the Magpul triggerguard is specifically designed to provide a larger interior area for winter gloves and faster trigger access. It’s permanently fixed, but it bows out slightly to allow gloves to work.
Installation isn't too hard, if you know a little about your rifle. Simply unhinge the original triggerguard, then drive out the rear roll pin with a punch. The little baggie includes a replacement rollpin, even. The front attaches with a setscrew.
Using it with my TD Battlegrip seems to work fine, despite the “duckbill”. The slope of the MIAD guard does contact the BG, but with a very slight tilt of the BG, it fits with only a little gap. Hardly an impediment to function; anal-retentive types can modify either the BG or Magpul to work more harmoniously.
My only issue was with the setscrew being overly soft and the internal hex wrench… “slot” stripping out. Apparently there were some early examples with overly soft screws, and Mike at Bowers Tactical is going to send me a new one. I’ll report back when I get it.
Overall, a nice accessory. Pricey, but the best always is.
