Any plans on making one?
Or making one with removable side rails, kind of a slim version? |

Is FDE going to be available in that 8-12 weeks or is it going to be just black initially? Got any pics?

Yes it will come a bit later. Troy MI View Quote I'm going to wait for that. It's a shame you made this one first, because I think the reception won't be quite as good. This pictured rail is going to cost owners the rail cost, plus BUIS. Now, a ton of people are going to wait for the other rail. Shame, I was going to buy 3 of these |

I hope it's soon. Been looking for this. How soon after until you release the model that allows for retaining of the factory front sight?

[#28]
They are next in line so we will be working on them soon.

Looking forward to see the version with the cut out for the factory sight.
One other thing. Any way to extend the rail and add a QD hole just behind the last mounting screw near the receiver? Any idea on the weight on the rail ? |

Are they for sale? I don't see them on the website. i have friends in awesome places :) this handguard is tight as hell. follow the instructions and its like its integral to the gun like fn machined it there. rocksolid doesnt do the fitment justice. the feel is just steller and REALLY changes the scar17 into the rifle it should have been. pop out the normal oem located screws and one extra the barrel comes off with the handguard. i weighed it on my us postal scale the handguard minus the keymod section it comes with is 10 ounces. weight of the parts it replaces came in at 5 ounces. it does not change the balance of the rifle. it feels better handling. my wife says she is willing to give the scar a try now that it fits her hands better. that fat handguard feeling is totally gone. changing from the cheesegrater picatinny feel to a positive grip with the scallop cut keymod sections pretty much makes an ideal gripping surface without panels. of course you can add panels or whatever you want. the thinner profile the MI key mod gives is huge. your not just adding a chunk of metal your also replacing the side rails with much thinner keymod sections. this makes a seamless transition from reciever to extension. be patient they are juuuuuuust about ready to ship out in the next couple of weeks. |
