Ditch the junkie Magpul front end furniture and put something of quality on it...Troy, Daniel Defense, etc.

Looking for a few ideas on what else I should buy (for my M&P 10) to tick-off my Wife!
(You married guys know what I'm talking about)
Please help me

What brand/model are the iron sights?
Cliff, My trigger ain't all that bad. In fact, the shop I bought it from had over 30 M&P10(s) in stock, and since I knew their GunSmith, I asked him to test every darn one of them out for me, and send me the one w/ the best trigger. He did.
Never tested it for pull, but I'd estimate it is less than 4 lb and smooth like Angelina Jolie in Silk Pajamas, but hey, I'd sure like any suggestions you could offer me about a specific product you think would make my weapon perform better, since I admittedly don't know anything about custom triggers.
Thanks for your comment Sir.

Standard AR triggers vary wildy in pull quality. Most are gritty and rough. Sounds like you got one of the rare good ones.
One thing that helped all the AR triggers I've used, whether it's a Geiselle or standard, is grease. Pull your FCG out of your lower and clean it, the apply grease to all the sears, the pins and the bottom curve of the hammer. Don't forget that front upper corner of the trigger, that's where it engages the hammer sear.
Lubing with grease will make even the best AR trigger better.
Installing a Geiselle trigger is almost a no brainer, but not absolutely necessary. Before dropping a couple hundred bucks or more on a G trigger, grease up yours and shoot it. Being it's as smooth as you say, you probably don't need one.
A one pound muzzle brake is bloody heavy in anyone's books! For what you paid for the Grizzly, you could have gotten a Battlecomp BABC for a few buck more which is very light and does a great job at reducing muzzle rise and softening recoil. I have on on a Para FAL with an 18" barrel and have shot it with a bare muzzle, with the Belgian brake and with the BABC. The BABC wins hands down. The problem with a heavy muzzle device is it slows down your swing when tracking a moving target and makes the rifle slower to mount. I think if you try a lighter MD, you'll like how the rifle handles better.
I would also get rid of either the AFG or the Grip Pod. with both mounted, you've got two accessories that perform the same function. My personal preference would be to remove both.
There is nothing wrong with the Magpul forearm, but I would replace it with a rifle length floating handguard and either trim down the existing gas block or replace it with a low profile GB. My M&P-10 is set up with a 2.5-10 optic which is why I want to replace it's Magpul forearm with a FF tube.
Guessing from your choice of the EOTech, this rifle is set up as a close range carbine, possibly self defense. As such, I'd get a weapon light to mount to that rail. It looks like you got the plastic Magpul front sight. Folks have had problems with those melting when mounted to a railed gas block. To kill two birds with one stone, try this:
