    I love every magpul product except the cheap sights they make. Those things suck. Dunno why they have a bunch of bad *** products but couldn't get some sights to be on par with the rest of there stuff.

      Where's the "Magpul sights don't melt" crew at now?

      In other threads people have SWORN Magpul sights won't melt, even on gas blocks.

          Why would you mount a plastic sight to a gas block? Those are designed for a rail.

            Heh, I HATE every single product they make except thier mags and molle threader. Everything else seems too fan boyish for me

              like I told you last time, flame throwers don't need sights.

                You know, this Barbie-Gun thing is getting out of hand.

                What's with all the plastic crap anyway??

                  There's nothing wrong with polymer products, but they should be used as directed, and not abused.

                    Some of their stuff has it's uses.
                    Ranger floorplates, or the original Magpul straps are convenient.
                    Their MOE/MIAD grips and VFG are nothing special.
                    Some of their buttstocks are pretty nice.
                    I like the AFG.
                    One item I don't "get" is the MOE handguards.

                    But ya, there's a lot of hype, and honestly, it's simply a discount source. Their prices are lower than others for comparable items, so of course, they are popular.

                    Some of their items are unique and have a good use. Others are along the lines of "Do we really need another one on the market?"

                    And of course, the windowed 10/30 with a photo of rounds behind the window is pure mall-ninja

                      I like the mags, the grip is ok, and I like the flatness of the bottom of the MOE handguards compared to the standard plastic handguards. I got the MOE handguards because of that flatness I like, the price, and I couldn't find carbine length triangle handguards(someone might make 'em, but I didn't find 'em). I could have got a quad rail, but I didn't need 28 inches of rail to bolt things to, and I didn't want to pay 4x or more the price for a bunch of rail space I didn't need.

                      I see a use for ranger plates and the straps, but I don't have any magazine pouches I use often enough to care.
                      The VFG is just like any other VFG, nothing special.
                      The AFG... meh.
                      I wasn't looking for cheap sights, the rear I have folds down and gets out of the way just fine.
                      I like the ACS stock, the rest are meh. The PRS is neat, but too heavy.

                            kinda of am magpul fanboy.

                            UBR stock. wanted something shorter thant he a2 and adjustable w/o losing the cheek weld. satisfies all those needs.

                            Magpul grip. very nice larger hands and the stock grip just didnt work together.

                            and i have some pmags. they work great.

                              I prefer the CAA. Got one on the Carbine and the AR22.

                              Only 3 Magpul items in the image... AFG, floorplate, and trigger guard.
                              I did add the MBUS later.

                                Because the A2 handguard sucks, and some people don't want a full rail system. I'm one of those people...
