HELP! I broke the wife’s carbine doing something “less than smart” on Saturday. While tripping over my own two feet I fell and smacked the trigger guard breaking one of the tabs the trigger guard was pinned to. (I’m sincerely happy it didn’t result in an AD/ND – lots of people standing around at the time.) The simplest repair I can think of is to use a MAGPUL MIAD Grip kit; unfortunately, they discontinued the version with the integral trigger guard. This afternoon I found several sources for the current version but nobody has the old one in stock. Now for the groveling part – do any of you gear gurus that purchased the older MIADs still have a trigger guard you aren’t using that you would be willing to part with? I’m willing to deal if anybody’s got one. I really don’t want to have to get a new lower; busting this one was bad enough.

Yes. Or just the trigger guard front strap if someone has installed the MIAD but not used the trigger guard. It looks like the sale you listed is already over though.

Mission accomplished with thanks to fng13 for the part and the gunsmith for the milling machine to mage the rest of it until it fit. (There's magic in that machine, I swear!) Since the gunsmith's teaching full time he asked me to let him use it in class to demonstrate a permanent repair technique. Looks like it'll get a pro fix and a paint job someting later in the year. Meantime it works just fine with fng13's leftovers. Thanks guys; disaster averted and thread closed.
