That hanguard is made to be off center like that. It's possible your handguard is designed the same way. |

I'll double check when I have a minute. |

Well at least your 9mm pistol has that bullet button that lets you push a button to make it full auto. Without that, life would suck right? |

I haven't installed them on an upper yet, but it looks to me as though the 4.5" barrel will be recessed about 0.25" under the handguard. It's also got a smaller ID than my Samson rail, but I think the rear cap of my can will still fit under the rail. It'll be tight though. I was worried when I first saw it that I'd have to get a longer barrel or shorter rail just to thread the can on. Now I'm thinking I should get a 3-lug adapter and mount rather than the 1/2-36 direct thread mount. That might actually push the effective end of the barrel past the handguard. |

You don't have to have that grip "wrap" in California. Our only restrictions are a "cal bullet button" and 10 round limit on mags

exactly..thats why I have a grip wrap and muzzle break so I can have a featureless rifle and use evil mags if I like...the pistol is bullet button mag release..

How do you get the closest barrel thread shoulder with a rail without it going under? what size rail do you get with your barrel? 1" smaller rail? (4" rail with 5" barrel, 7" rail with 8" barrel) Or is it half inch smaller rail?

Thanks View Quote I'm planning on building a 5.5" upper with a side charger in the future, but still run a "7 inch" rail. I would use one of the flash cans or a KXx to get beyond the rail just barely, in preparation for suppressing it, which would come at a later time when I feel like dealing with all the paperwork and fees and whatnot. Keep in mind, the ID of your rail would limit what suppressor would fit under it. It sounds like you're trying to avoid that? |
