I have a Mak 90 that is a sweet shooter but I hate the stock and wood handguards I'm considering doing something like this
( not my pic) I already have the vltor extension and have used hogue grips on various firearms in the past with good results. I'm thinking Vltor extension Magpul moe stock Magpul cheek riser Ultimak gas tube rail Bushnell trs-25 Hogue PG Crapco double hook FCG (fucking 922r What should I use for a lower handgaurd? I don't need rails and it needs to be American made for compliance reasons |

I have an almost identical setup on my MAK
Using this lower handguard. Fits perfect with an ultimak. Sent you an IM |

Yes, because it mounts like any normal handguard, and no, it shouldn't melt because the parts of it that go into the handguard retainer are metal, not to mention it has metal heat shielding in it.
It won't melt under sustained fire; I fired 100 rds stopping only to change mags and you can't feel the heat through the handguard. The front trunnion area was pretty hot, and I know wooden handguards would've been hot and smoking at that point. If you're really worried about melting it, there are actually extra vent slots you can pop open to aid in cooling it/venting some heat. |
