Sven,
So what's the timetable for HGs for milled AKs? I'm dying to update my DDI under folder.

First Extended ALFA Rail off the production line being run through the paces at a Larry Vickers 2 day AK training course this weekend. You can also see the Flush Fit Side Folder stock adapter on there too. Ran like a champ.

It is secured by the handguard retainer and it has a notch on the left side to clear the sling loop like the Zenitco rails.

No cutting!!!! I insist that products we design should be drop-in with no mods to the gun if at all possible. The slot on the left side of the lower handguard allows the sling loop to stay in place, and it mounts up just like any standard handguard using the front handguard retainer. No bolting direct to the barrel, no bullshit.

Any plans to make keymod grip panels that will fit on the sides without a spacer?

Keymod panels are made to fit the round contours of an AR rail. I have found that they don't fit on flat surfaces. I had to make spacers to mount rail panels on the Krebs due to the way that they are formed. 
The area above the side key slots on your hand guards looks like it may cause problems, maybe not. Can you confirm that they will fit? I never see any photos of your rail with panels installed. |

Bravo Company, Ergo Grips, and Knight's Armament make rail covers that work on flat surfaces. They're thinner than the MI panels shown in your picture.

As already mentioned, BCM, KAC, and a hose of other companies make rail panels that will mount up direct to a flat surface if that is what you want, so there are options out there.

Yup, that is a prototype of the Dual Tube Stock, should be out by the end of the year.
The one below it is the Flush Fit Folder, or just the F3 Stock Tube as we usually call it. Those are done and sitting here, I just haven't had a chance to get them up n the website yet. The article also has pictures of the SOMAK-2 rail that we have developed for Circle 10 AK- it integrates their scout rail and kickass rear peep design into one piece. |

OK, so I lied- one sale for the ALFA rail:
From now until the end of the year, all remaining stock of ARC LOK ALFA Rails are 50% off. Yes, you read that right- we are selling them below our cost to make them! Sometimes you make a product that turns out to not be a hot seller, even when that product can directly mount all Magpul MOE polymer rails segments and accessories. Well, if we can't make money, at least we can practically give them away to you to put to good use!
