I cant get pics to upload but have an Apex grip on mine which is usable. The magpul grip is a no go but the Yetiwurks Switchback looks damn near perfect.
I havent seen a Pakse Pathfinder yet but from lines and design it looks like it will work but like Apex not line up 100% |
|

You can use an EXPS or UH1 and get pretty close to not needing a riser. I am waiting on the manticore arms rails to come out. They currently list a 15in on their site bit have said a shorter (12?) will also be released.

So can the bullpup kit be used with an SBR or are they pretty much 16" carbine only at this point?

I wonder what the trigger feels like. The stock Scorpion pull is pretty embarrassing, and bullpup designs are notorious for long scratchy pulls.
|
|
|
Changing out the grip angle solves much of the trigger issues.

Still, when friends want to go shooting it's the gun they ask me to bring and a favorite at any demo. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/408302/scorp-883312.jpg View Quote is that the 8" Sig Minimalist Stock?

Well, I ordered one of the bullpup kits for my FDE carbine with muzzle brake. I will see if it is as ugly in person as it is in the pictures.
I'm hoping that the Magpul grip will be adaptable for it, I've seen one source saying that the Magpul grip won't fit the bullpup lower but I'll find out for sure. |

That which does not kill you has made a tactical error.
There is no 'overkill.' There is only 'open fire' and 'I need to reload'. |

Got the HBI parts installed today.
Pro stock charging handle and mag release, theta forward trigger and trigger spring, long AK safety. Polished all metal to metal contact points. Trigger average is 5 lbs. also put the small mount on the Romeo 5 dot for a lower 1/3 co witness. Pretty dang happy with everything. Just needs a can. Attached File Attached File |

View Quote The bullpup kit was designed to keep a Scorpion carbine at 26.1” non NFA territory with a 16” carbine barrel. It will work fine with any length of barrel, although for safety it is recommended that a muzzle device or suppressor extend the open muzzle end to at least in front of the forend. CZ USA requested that the bullpup kit keep their OEM grip, but the grip is replaceable. CZ USA also requested that the kit work with the OEM forend so that customers did not have to swap out the forend on their carbines. If you go to the Manticore Webstore we currently have no less than 4 models of forend that are compatible with the bullpup kit and were designed to work with it- two carry handle models specifically for the bullpup and two general purpose models that work on any model of Scorpion including the bullpup, both available in 12” and 15” models. We also offer thr barrel nut tools to remove the OEM forends. If you really want to go nuts Ratworx is now offering the Venom Suppressor forend which works with the bullpup kit and you can have a 22” long integrally suppressed 9mm carbine with the OEM pistol barrel. The micro Venom Suppressor launches in a few weeks and you can convert a 4.4” barrel evo micro to a 19” long integrally suppressed 9mm carbine. Will post pics of some of these setups in the morning.

Just wondering whats the thinking on who makes the best mags for the Scorpion? I just ordered a pistol. There seem to be a lot of options for mags an dont want to get junk.
|
|
|
If I was betting my life on it, factory black mags. Other mags have had more issues or haven't been around long enough to be sure.

weird question for the stock experts...
do you think a non folding buffer tube adapter & a AR15 pdw stock (Maxim, SI,etc) could work on the Evo? I like the idea of the manticore slider stock but the lack of chin support and its general width make it uncomfortable... |

Im not sure yet if i like it but FFS WTF didnt they make the damn thing use AR grips? That angle is horrible and going to put the mag into your wrist. There are so many excellent AR grips and only a handfull of mediocre Scorpion specific grips. ANYBODY IN THERE MCFLY??????

There are no issues with grabbing a mag and inserting or removing it. I know this may be a surprise, but I made very sure that it functioned and the ergonomics worked even with the requirement we were guven to use the OEM grip. Sven Manticore Arms |

Wont be as compact as possible when collapsed but would be more useable.. |

Has anyone done a good comparison of the different integral setups including sound readings?
