Wanting to build a retro style kitty kat 300 Blk. I have found a source for the round A2 style pistol length handguards.  But I have also seen pictures with pistol length a1 triangular handguards. I would like to find a source. I love the triangles and will be using an A1 receiver.

I have found These A2 style.



And kind of like This too

I've never seen pistol length triangle handguards.  You might be able to make your own from a longer set though.  People were doing it for carbine and mid length before they were commercially available.

That's carbine length, not pistol.

Glad my prototype N-23 has make some heads turn. I just emailed the mfg of these handguards to see if he can make more. He was also looking at getting them 3D printed. I’ll see if I get a response

I’ve printed out the A2 style handguards with my 3D printer, and the STL is accurate and looks good. I may try in a harder plastic like ASA to see how they turn out. The 1 piece aluminum handguard is meh. I bought it and almost immediately took it off.

Maybe don't do a Kitty Kat, do a LaFrance M16k?
