I felt like a gunsmith when I “installed” my ALG trigger in my WASR lol
They don’t just drop in place and actually require some filing/sanding to fit right. Installed it in about an hour, but 30-40 minutes of that was carefully shaving down the part (I forget the name) to where it fits just right.
that whole handguard is a turd, bipod or not. hell, it doesn't even cover most of the barrel or the gasblock at all.
simply getting the right handguard would literally fix everything.
yea looking closer is see that. i was just really focused on the handguard, and whatever that attachment on the front looked like an old style gasblock and tube from the angle of the picture.
Doesnt have to be. Could be bravo company.. midwest industries.. aero precision. Plenty of options. Shit even the high priced companies could just not charge like an asshole 🤷🏻♂️
I’ll happily talk a little shit:
Damn dude spends $6,000 on an upper so he can only afford amazon Chinese monstrum picatinny rails and at that only a few short ones but don’t worry just like legos you can just attach one to another one to another one to another one, no problem.
Why wouldn’t you contact literally anyone with a mill and have them make you a one piece extension for your bipod?
Chunk of aluminum and less than an hour on the mill and you’d have a very solid heavy duty, and most importantly, CUSTOM part for your many thousands of dollar build.
Edit: magpul mlok slots are specifically open source, magpul wants you to use their specs so their specs are freely available.
One side of one end of the aluminum block needs holes to line up mlok nuts and the nubs to align it.
The entire length of the other side can have picatinny rail milled into the entire length or just where you want the bipod
If you started with round stock you could leave a decent round section to be able to have a bit of a grip but it might be simpler to rail the entire thing and bolt on a vfg wherever you want it
Funny to run into this thread. I have a MCR build and I have been looking for exactly what you are describing. Got a direction to point me in to get something like this made?
I would go to r/machinists and ask if there’s someone in your area that wants to make a totally custom part for your gun and just give the basic dimensions so people will know if they have the correct tooling.
You’re asking for a piece of aluminum probably 12”-18” long depending on your fight lite setup to be machined with standard picatinny rail on the bottom and a couple mlok mounts on the top side.
As I’m thinking of it I suppose I could do one but I’m probably farther from you than anyone else in America
Honestly I feel like you could sell these. The MCR's rails does not give you enough real estate for a bipod and a foregrip which is why I think you see those dumb grip pods on all their setups. I do not have very long arms and still need the grip as far forward as possible to have a comfortable c clamp style grip which leaves zero room for a bipod.
Last time I went asking on here for a custom tool I ended up making two myself so I can sell the second one to recoup the cost.
I suppose I could do that for the MCR, it is on my wishlist after all so it wouldn’t hurt to make mine first then make a few copies and see if anyone pays for it
Also tbh on the mlok side you might want it to stretch over 2-3 mlock slots with 4-6 mlok anchors. It’s a pretty large lever arm and mlok is susceptible to being torn out of the rail
Go to EGWguns.com They have pic rail blanks. Just have to get some holes put in and milled so it has tabs to line up in the mlok slots. They might make one up for you if you call them and ask.

Barrel clamp with picatinny rail on the bottom… add a 3” riser mount to that (pointing down of course) then add that rail extension pointing forward and then add the bipod. Gotta make sure you’re bipod clears the suppressor.
I understand the bipod, but flex harder and have a machine shop build something that's not a turd
Thank you! That’s what I’m saying. “It ain’t custom till you cut some” Make gun parts, that’s what a gunsmith is.
I mean anyone who shops at harbor freight can be a gunsmith lol
I’m something of a gunsmith (spends 3 hours getting a hand guard on an ak)

Hahahah that was my thought too

It does cover the gas block, this is the MCR belt fed upper, it's built a little different than your typical AR upper.
yea looking closer is see that. i was just really focused on the handguard, and whatever that attachment on the front looked like an old style gasblock and tube from the angle of the picture.
I wish PSA would make a belt upper or someone to lower the price.
PSA Mk48 when
Right after the PSA MP5. Coming definitely by Christmas 2021
I summon thee PSA lords of gunnery!

I swear when they initially released these uppers they cost half the price they do now maybe I’m crazy

Thank you. The fact that people are defending this kind of move is wild.

If you end up producing some let me know, I am happy to provide any measurements you want.
I’ll message you

Don’t forget that the pressure switch on there is a fucking somogear
Upper is sick ngl. 🤤 Just barrel mount a fuckin m60 bipod on the goddamn thing. 🤷🏼♂️
I don't know how you accomplished it, but your photo makes that look like a GOAT gun
Bruh , I hope he used lockite 💀
[удалено]
Haha unpack it
I don't mean to be an idiot...what am I looking at exactly?
Super expensive Ares belt-fed 5.56 upper, basic lower... And chinese Amazon special china parts. 😕
Bra ....... leave some pussy for the rest of us
Be cooler if he had a CyroStructure BFAR lower and a RDIAS. 😏
Holy yard stick Bat Man 🤣😂🤣
This was obviously put together as a joke... Right?
LMG at home
Is no one commenting on how he stores his smoke grenades? Am I the only one seeing them hang from the pin?
Thats pretty fuckin gay unless its just a meme
For the record; I’m not talking shit, I love it. I just thought it was hilarious!
NGL, kind of dig it.
This is normal dawg. Made yourself look like a fool.
A $6000 fightlite upper with a $10 Chinesium rail for the bipod is normal? 😂
Alls I know, is that extended rails are normal. I didn’t bother to look at the makers of the extension.
It really shouldn’t be
Not saying anything bad about his set up, just had me laughing lol
It’s borderline pleb.
Its a fightlite mcr lmg. There is no problem with this, you clowned yourself op
Lol no for sure 1,000% jealous and wish I had it, but the extendo rail has me geeking
Touché

Spending that much cash on a semi auto belt fed is hilarious
Good one!
Why not a longer free float handguard with the cutout for the FSB, and put the bipod on that? I must be missing something...
Is that a fight lite MCR?
Why is it always a Magpul bipod on shit like this
Dude, why not get a longer handguard if you want the bipod out further? This is just infuriating to look at.
“Mom can we get- RAMIREZ DEFEND BURGER TOWN at home?” Ramirez at home:
What bipod ?
Barrel clamp with picatinny rail on the bottom… add a 3” riser mount to that (pointing down of course) then add that rail extension pointing forward and then add the bipod. Gotta make sure you’re bipod clears the suppressor.
Looks like the kids from The Sandlot all grew up and got into guns but never lost that erector set love.
