I've been thinking about changing my PA10's grip. I really like the Magpul K2+ grip, and have them on most of my other AR's. I haven't tried to put one on the PA10 yet, but it appears there will be a gap between the frame and the beaver tail of the grip. Is there a K2+ styled grip that will fit the PA10 with no gaps? I like the angle of the K2+ grip too, and any grip I get would need to have that angle to it.

I used the Hogue beaver tail. The tail is flexible and conforms to the lower quite well. Feels great and puts the trigger in the right spot, for me anyways.

If there’s a gap, you’re best/cheapest  option is the Ergo Grip Spacer. They run about $5-$6 and should work just fine. Some fitting might be required.

I like the look of that Hogue grip. I actually have a Hogue grip that doesn't have the beaver tail on it. I put it on there, and it works ok for now. I think I'm going to get one with the beaver tail though, as I like a thicker grip overall that what came with the rifle.

I thought about that. However, I'm always concerned when I have to add bits or pieces to a gun that need fitting, and I would have been concerned about the piece falling out or getting knocked out. What I'm looking for is one grip, in one piece, that is similar to the K2+. I like the angle of the K2+, and I like the rubbery feel to it. The Hogue comes real close. I just am not a big fan of the finger grooves. That's why I took mine off from a different AR in the first place. It's better than the OEM grip though. So, it's getting put into service for now.

Magpul makes a gap filler as well. Not sure if it’s K2 compatible, but may be worth checking out. 

The piece locks into place and is held in by tension. If it falls out, your rifle likely has more damage to it than the missing gap.

Here's a pic of  a Magpul K2 on my PA10 Gen 2. This is the rubberized version. I am not a big fan of that and will change it out to the Standard K2 grip. The gap is not that bad and it does not bother me.. just my 2 cents. Hope this helps.

this is actually good news for me. My other three ar's all have the hogue grip with the palm swell.....I just shoot better with it on there.

Dp I have to order a special hogue or does the grip come one size fits all so to speak?
