Magpul MOE-SL grip in dark earth has the reduced angle that's good for cramped tactical setups. Slimmer profile than the MOE K2. Storage compartment in the base closes securely. Dark earth matches Magpul FDE close enough.
Magpul MOE-SL grip in dark earth matches Magpul FDE close enough. The slim profile and reduced angle work for cramped tactical applications. Texture is on the lighter side, would prefer more aggressive checkering for wet conditions.
