I put a Hogue on mine soon after I bought last December.

Hogue Grip
Put this on my 15-22 and came as standard on my RRA LAR-15 AR1251. Great grip.

Is there a difference in the Hougue Monogrip and the Overmolded grip? My LGS only had one Monogrip left so I grabbed it.

Thank you for that fitting tip.
I'll now be able to mount a miad on my MP 15-22.

on the Hogue website, the term "Monogrip" seems to be reserved for the one-piece handgun grips and "Overmolded" or O.M. grips are the rifle grips.
I have seen some vendor websites refer to the rifle grip as a "Monogrip" but with the same part number as the O.M.
Bottom line, if it fits your rifle, I wouldn't worry about it. It is probably the same thing.
If you get the Magpul MIAD AR-10 wedge, you can use the extended backstraps with virtually no gap between the lower receiver and grip back strap.

I replaced the stock grip with a Hogue overmolded grip. While I liked the grippy feel I realized the grooves were too far apart for my "girly" hands. I put a Magpul MOE grip on it 2 weeks ago and have used it several times since. I much prefer the Magpul. I also used the stock hex head bolt that came with the gun. It worked perfectly for the Magpul...much easier to use than the slot head bolt supplied.
Anyone want to buy a slightly used Hogue grip? email me and we'll work it all out.

that is the problem with the Hogue. it has such deep finger grooves that it forces your fingers into them. It is fine if that is the way you normally grip. I wish they weren't so aggressively shaped.
Another thing I don't like about them is that, at least on mine, it is designed so that you need either an AR or AK shell casing to open the storage compartment on the bottom.... which is fine since i have the Hogue on my AK.
Still, I like the Magpul better where you can open the bottom compartment with your finger.

Put a Houge on mine. Very happy with it.
I've changed out the Magpul MOE grip on my 15-22 MOE (small gap between the MOE grip and the 15-22 lower receiver... gives an occational pinch to the grip hand webbing between the thumb and fore finger.. Ouch!) for a Ergo (ambi). The Ergo grip is higher on the lower receiver and for us folk with large hands, I've found the Ergo grip a lithe larger than the Hogue grip. I have the Ergo on two other AR type weapons.

Hogue overmolded fits my big old gorilla hands perfectly.
I'm not sure that the storage compartment will ever see use by me due to the afforementioned ridiculously tight fit, but that's my only complaint w/ it so far.

Installed mine and fits like a charm and a lot better than stock.
I put on a Command Arms UPG16 grip on today. It comes with 3 different front and rear interchangeable rubberized pads to mix and match giving you a truly customizable grip. I like how it feels in my hand but I havent range tested yet.
