AKA Lets-get-Back-to-Normal Edition

I've been noticing more m-lok builds, alongside more goats than usual...

Lets discuss M-Lok vs keymod.
Is there any real difference in functionality between the two?

Beep. How's that Holosun treating you? Am very likely going to get an HS503C since there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of bad about it and pick up a QD mount from American Defense.

Anyone try any of Matrix Aerospaces' handguads? I'm looking at their Lavi handguard.

More OC of goats please.

M-LOK is a bit more stable and because of its simple shape its possible to make polymer M-LOK handguards. The KDG Kinect QD attachments for it are really cool, but expensive

to each their own. I've just felt that mlok would be a bit lighter and the keymod might slide if its not tightened properly.

Stop perpetuating this myth, there is an integral rear locking lug the keeps keymod attachments from moving back to the larger unlocked position.

Are MLOK rails viable for fixing a 40mm underslung grenade launcher, or will recoil tear them off the lugs?

Curious whether that would be an issue in MLOK handguards being adopted for service rifles instead of a permanent picatinny rail handguard (at least on the on the 6-o'clock position).

I remember that 40mm recoil was sufficient enough that Colt Canada had to produce a reinforced gas-block/FSP for the Brits because of the way their AG36s impacted the post, and earlier versions of the IUR had a big chunky backstop on the lower handguard, that was designed to stop UGLs travelling under recoil
>>
>>28272582
It will be a hard sell for the larger military forces to accept either M-LOK of KeyMod just based on the fact that it makes for more small parts to lose considering all of their supporting equipment that gets mounted on handguards is standardized to 1913.and will require rail sections.

>>
>>28272686

>>
>>28272614
Yeah I was looking at it in terms of them using rail sections for mounting current equipment.

There was some retard doing the whole hurr durr:
>2015
>quad rails
>not using M-LOK
in a recent thread about New Zealand's new AR.

They were deflecting the point other posters made about STANAG-2324/MIL-STD-1913 being the standard for equipment by stating that M-LOK rail sections were sufficient and more practical because of weight and comfort. But I have my doubts how they'd hold up in general service (with the need for UGLs and as you say, no tools and fiddly bits) - not just the kind of high-speed shit where the minimalist handguards do have some benefit.
>>
No pics, but my mlok hand guard has some rough and sharp edges, especially at the front, where it also has quad railing. How bad would it be to take a file to it, and file it down? What could I use to touch up the removed anodized spots? Will the areas chip and crack and get bigger?
>>

my second build has a 13" keymod freefloat on it, and I was all excited because it looked cool. fast forward to present, and all I've mounted is an AFG. considering mounting a flashlight on the top 1913 rail :^/

my third build has a drop-in MOE handguard. it's lighter.
>>
>>28273539
I've got a VFG and used to have a keymod light mount, but have since switched to a pic-rail mounted one.

Keymod/Mlok are great for lighter weight and low profile, but it's kind of impossible to take full advantage of that much mounting surface.

That said, the 45 degree attachment points that rails like the KMR, URX 4, KDG MREX, and Geissele Mk8 have are a really nice feature that makes offset lights, irons, and whatever else really easy, so that's neat.
>>
>>28273563
the newer gen Midwest Industries handguards have that 45 degree shit goin on too. I probably shouldn't shit on free floats as much as I do, because they do have their purposes, but after owning my first, I doubt I'll get another one until I build a 18-20" spr. I find them overrated and overpriced.

Old equipment will require rails sections new with direct attachment will not. Rails have small parts of their own (rail covers).

BTW M4A1+ requirements are written in such way that they imply M-Lok or keymod.

My current rail has keymod at the 6 o' clock. But whenever I get around to building another upper (or full AR who knows) I plan on getting something with keymod.

That being said, I know that ALG has some handguards with a top rail section that doesn't go the whole length of the handguard, and Manticore Arms does the same thing with their Transformer rail, are there any others that have this feature? Cause I think it looks awesome and it saves on weight.

This is my previous post.

Does anyone know of a good way to get an accurate idea as to how long the rail will be in relation to the barrel?

On my 9" barrel, when measured from tip to tip it is actually 9.5" When they say 9" is that generally accurate as to how far it will actually stick out? When someone says a 9" rail does that mean they would pretty much line up perfectly?

larue doesn't make a non-cantilever mount with the levers on the right side

that's necessary for the scar's CH

Anyone use tnsarmsco lowers? Those polymer ones?

I'm going to build a dirty used AR with parts from arfcom's EE. My plan is to make the cheapest AR possible. Tnsarms seems to have the best priced lower and they seem to have good reliablity tests plus a lifetime guarantee.

Also if anyone has AR parts floating around they want to sell hit me at usefulemailforthings@gmail

The more finish worn the better.
>>
>>28276611
Basically everything that normal parts kits ship with. The only thing missing is the barrel and lower. The lower I'm planning on making from an 80% Nodak Spud lower, which are actually in stock.

I really need to stop building so many ARs at once. Just today, an employee at my LGS let me finger his 14.5" build and now I'm wanting to build a lightweight 14.5". I already have four completed and three more in the works.

They're garbage. Don't waste your time with them.

Pay a little it more and get an Anderson. You can find an Anderson in most LGS for no more than $50-$60. Once you factor in a transfer fee for the polymer lower, it will essentially be the same cost.

Got two coats of Rustoleum Earth Brown on the RIS II, letting it dry for a few hours then I'll bring it inside for pictures.

Pic related is a rifle done in Earth Brown, it's not too far off from a lot of the DD FDE shades I've seen, definitely closer than Duracoat's "DD FDE" color, which is more of a golden-bronze than the rich, dark chocolatey color that most of the RIS IIs have.

Won't be a perfect match, but it should look nice, and I didn't really want to fully rattle-can the new rifle right away.

>20" barrel
>CTR stock

I didn't expect this combination to bother me so much. It just looks unbalanced. I mean it is, obviously, but the actual front heaviness doesn't bother me, just the aesthetics of it. I feel like I should either put a full stock of some sort (A2, UBR or MOE rifle) or maybe just a beefier adjustable stock.

I feel like I'm about to end up with a box full of buttstocks in the next few months.

Still drying, but it's getting colder outside so I brought it inside in the hopes the heat will let it dry quicker.

Hard to take a good picture of the color, but it's turned out pretty well, and the coats were light enough that you can still see the majority of the markings, which is a bonus. Not sure how it'll wear, but I can always just respray it later.

Pic related with black lower for color reference.

way to just go out n buy crapfires because "muh military."

the Olight M23 costs $5 less and is over 15x brighter (1020 lumens) than a surefire m951, even after the surefire is upgraded to LED.

it also has 350+ yards of useful throw. drop, shock, and 3 yard depth waterproof tested

You stupid deluded poorfag, the M951 new goes for around $300, the only way you get $100 Surefires is because grunts put up their used issue lights on ebay for a quick buck.
>>
>>28277410
Well that's pretty awesome. Definitely checking this out. But I really just meant the angled piece on the front. Doesn't come up as a part of the upper when I look it up.
>>
>>28277431
this also trashes the m300 which is 300 lumens and uses a single 123A battery which means shit life vs the m23's 18650 battery.

>>28277252
What's up with that pic rail where the shell deflector and FA should be?

>>28277487
You can use your gopro or flashlight as a shell deflector.

It's 90 degrees to the top rail.

personally because it's way too expensive and also really fucking heavy

sturdy and a quality feel though

I have one. It's an awesome stock and well worth the price imo. I would gladly buy one again if I ever decide to build another AR.
>>
>>28277431
>surefire m951
You're actually comparing a modern chinkshit light to a god knows how old incandescent surefire? And its not like Surefire doesnt have 1k lumen lights, I have a P3X Fury.

Perfect thread edition for my question. I bought this rifle (bottom) when low profile modular rails were just starting to become a thing, before key mod or mlok were available. It's been great, but now that the market has really caught up I'd like to convert to an M-Lok handguard. Since DD doesn't make the slim rail in mlok, I'm looking elsewhere.

What do you guys recommend? Looking for 9-12" length, was considering Geissele.
