unless your shooting highpower, sling supported, it's facing the wrong direction (or do you not apply rearward pressure?) says who? Rearward pressure is still being made holding the handguard 
I'm using it as an index point. Trying it both forward and to the rear turned around.

Knights may be the bees knees, but why do they insist on using cheesy standard screws? An Allen or Torx would be a much better fastener. When I got my KAC 600meter BUIS and saw the flathead screw I thought WTF.. DId I get a fake.. Dont get it.. Which is easier to find in the field, something to use as a flathead screwdriver, or a torx/allen wrench?

Well. like most people, I was taught to put loctite on every threaded fastener. Why would you want to use a fastener that becomes increasingly difficult to take off when used with loctite? (An Allen or Torx are going to give you a much better hold for removal when it's loctite'd in place than a standard ever will) You're next question is going to be - Why take it off then? I wouldn't. You're the one who brought it up.

I thought the point was to prevent your hand from slipping forward by being far forward on the rail, not to provide a surface for backwards pressure. If you want a surface for backwards pressure, why not just a VFG? |

If you want a surface for backwards pressure, why not just a VFG? Indeed. I have mine mounted in the same way as mvician. The purpose is not to hold it. You still grip the forearm to apply rearward pressure. The hand stop is just that... a stop. Prevents any forward movement of the hand. |

You guys kill me,
tell me 1 more time how you dont give a Sh*t how your toys look. Yes, I have a standard 20" an 16" barreled ARs only a small #,, I'm no big timer. My short barrel is for kicks and giggles. and yes I like for it too look as mean as it acts, the hand-stop was for safety more than the looks, but I wasnt going too start adding junk too it now that its finished, again,, thanks for all the help and direction on finding what i was looking for now its time for another HighLife.

$5.00 from Ergo https://www.ergogrips.net/images/surestop.gif I'm thinking you reverse this one, as seen on the shotty, and put it with the hook forward. Might work like the cut down one. Damn that may not be to bad. |

I have to agree, a flathead is much easier to find quickly.
Might have chose another make or style if it were a carry rifle. Someone previously asked about the material,, seems too be hard rubber over plastic it flexes just enough to be durable. ((Ergo handstop)) |
