Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - mounts on the cheap...how would this hold up?
Posted: 9/9/2005 8:50:13 AM EDT
i found a mount that mounts to the front "plastic hand guards" with screws..........

are those hand guards strong enough to hold a vertical forgrip when firing?

with out cracking or breaking?

thanks in advance

I strongly advise against mounting anything to the plastic handguards.  They flex and give quite a bit.  I acutally tried it myself and got rid of it ASAP.

If $$$ is an issue, look at the Surefire M73.  It is quite nice.
