| I have a Midwest Industries rifle-length, drop-in rail. There is a little wiggle with it. Is there a bracket that would span the gap between the upper and the top rail to lock it in place? |

I'm not worried about the space. The problem is that it rotates slightly. I think it is the KAC drop-in rail that has a clamp on the upper half that tightens it against the barrel nut and eliminates movement, but this one does not.
I'm looking for a bracket/clamp that would slide over the rail and sit over the gap and tighten down to eliminate the movement. |

KAC/P&S RAS drop ins have the tab that locks using the barrel nut.
I think Troy has that feature also?? I have not seen anything like what you seek (does not mean it's not available). Are you wanting just a short section that clamps on the pic rails to tie the 2 together? |

Not sure of your intended use/role for the rig? but this comes to mind:
link *keep in mind, not intended for buis usage. |

Yep. I saw one like that and was thinking no, it needs to have 2 screws, but the one will fit in the gap. Thank you.

Question sent to Midwest Industries: "I have a 2 piece, rifle length, drop-in rail. It has a little movement in it when installed. Is this normal?"
Response: Yes, there is a small amount of movement in the drop in handguard and is normal for our drop ins. I'm guessing this may not be suitable for a laser mount. |
