Magpul UBR buttstock is solid, well made and adjustable.

For handgrips swap out the mil-spec grip for a CCA adjustable, Hogue overmold, or one of the MagPul offerings.

As for the forearm, swap that out for a Hogue free float tube, they are padded for a good grip, free float for accuracy.


Buttstock = UBR
Pistol Grip = Hogue

Forearm = Hogue

MagPul MOE for the stock and pistol grip. I am going to go with these 2 on my M&P15 22lr in a week or 2.

Generally stay away from the MagPul MOE parts, that is there bottom end stuff, its better than mil-spec but its far from the best stuff. Ergo grips, Hogue Grips, Ace stocks, CCA, etc all are much better choices than the MOE parts. MagPul's other products are awesome, the ACS, UBR and DMR are far better choices than the MOE.

Troy rails are top quality rails. If you want a rail fore end then you picked one of the very best.

Magpul makes good AR accessories & they're carried at a lot of gunshops.
I picked up a Magpul ACS for my DPMS AP4, big differance in how it shouldered.

You could always get a CTR stock (which looks the best anyways) and it comes with a locking lever so when you adjust the stock there is no movement or wiggle whatsoever.

For sights the magpul seem to do the job well especially if on a budget and if your looking into purchasing an optic my suggestion would be to look into the aimpoint PRO.
