I really like the home made cutouts on the Geissele rails. Has anyone hacked a BCM or Midwest cutout rail?

Lol She told me the same not to long ago lol, I got a QRF from BCM the quad rail version of the KMR, so far I like it. Accuracy improved over the RAS. We'll see how tough the rail is come June lol https://i.imgur.com/LjXvlVh.jpg View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Your rifle just told me she wants you to do the free floated M5 RAS conversion on her. She said she wants to be a free floated A4. https://i.imgur.com/LjXvlVh.jpg |

Here's mine. I originally wanted a Centurion rail to dress up my Colt, but I walked into the Primary Arms store in Houston this weekend and found this Troy Charlie rail on the clearance rack. Seems pretty solid and I like it so far. Going to ditch the AFG for a Tango Down vertical grip and add some rail covers, but that's about it.

I was going to get a DD Omega rail again, but the Troy rail looks more appealing - my main reason for a FF rail is mounting my enormous Harris Bipod, and a normal sized carbine handguard won’t have much room left if I do that. How’d you get rid of the front sling swivel? View Quote |

Currently attempting to make a free float dissipator, however I do not want a drop in or quad rail. Any suggestions for a handguard, preferably MLOK? It looks like I need something 12.625 - 12.75. So far the only thing I have found is some from Midwest industries, and one from Zev. Both are 12.625. will this leave any gap between the end of the handguard and the start of the fsb?

It's the windham mock dissipator, so it has the fsb but also a low profile gas block on the carbine spot that's hidden under the handguard. So the smaller the gap the better. will the fortis rev 2 be flush/ super close to the fsb? I will be unpinning the fsb to remove the end cap, and barrel nut if needed.
edit: would 12.5 be an unsightly gap? SLR makes a few 12.5s |

I might see if SLR will cut down a 13 inch like that. I like their MLOK with end only quad rail, such as the solo and solo mid.

Where's the FSB? Either you loaded the wrong pics, or you are in the wrong forum. Still looks cool, though.

Well, I did a test "build" of my free float dissipator. These pics are with an upper and lower I am using for a different build. Still waiting on a billet set I want to be in stock.
https://imgur.com/gallery/syRycjj The handguard is 12.625 inches, and there is a tiny gap. I can push the fsb back since it's a mock dissipator and the fsb is not the gas block. This would mean drilling new holes, which would overlap with the old ones, so I don't think it would work. Receiver and handguard will be cerakoted titanium blue, the gray part of the pistol grip done to match the stock, and the barrel done either black or gray to to match the stock as well. |
