Default Grip suggestions? MIAD grip angle is too steep

Hey all - I replaced the stock grip with a Magpul MIAD because the OEM grip was too small and I'm finding that the grip angle is too much on the MIAD.

Any suggestions for a larger grip with a more vertical angle?
I'd prefer NO finger grooves.
thanks

Troy's CQB grip has a more vertical angle:
Troy Battle Ax CQB Grip (Now Available)|Troy Advanced Polymers|Upgrades|Troy Industries| |

New grip from Magpul that has a more vertical angle:
RIFLE GRIPS - MOE-K™ Grip – AR15/M16

And this allows you to put 1911 grips onto your AR15, which would also be more vertical:

thanks yeti for the links and research man

I'm not diggin the 1911 look and the Magpul says it's a "smaller circumference" which is why I got rid of the stock grip...
Hard to tell if that Troy model will have that much difference than my MIAD... gonna start googlin'

Thanks again
