General Mazaki Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 I am thinking that instead of getting an M4 RIS, I was thinking of getting a carbine (which looks way cooler) and getting a rail kit and M203 for it. Would this be possible without a crane stock or would the battery not fit in the hand guard after the attachment? Link to post Share on other sites

BARsrule2 Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 Read the stickies dude. This WILL get locked, so I don't know why you're even trying. Go into the Armalite picture thread and ASK THIS SAME QUESTION. Not only will more people see it (and are more likely to get a meaningful response), you'll also be following the rules.

General Mazaki Posted August 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 How's that fella? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thanks, but it isn't what I'm looking for. Maybe this will help; Something like that. It has the full handguard, but has an M203. I know it wouldn't be as compact in real life (darn perfect dark zero), but it would still look cool.

MadCat360 Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 (edited) That's an XM177 hand guard with a CQBR barrel and A2 sights. Gonna be a lot of mismatched parts there. You could always hack down the M203. The scope looks like a futuristic ACOG (mounted directly to the handle). I believe to mount the M203 directly to the hand guard you'd need a single RIS rail. Might not be straight enough though. I don't think they make any "slanted" ones for the Xm177 hand guard. The guard should be pretty level though.

I know I will need a rail, but I am concerned about it not being strong enough. That is where the barrel clamp comes in, but since it is at an odd angle, it might not attached where it should. Could I get that handguard for a Classic Army M4? I only see Marui ones, but I am not sure it they a compatible. Edited August 24, 2007 by General Mazaki Link to post Share on other sites
0nslaught Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 just get a RIS or a RAS and put rail covers on the top, left, right, but attach a RIS M203 on the bottom. Link to post Share on other sites

Lance Jackass Posted August 24, 2007 Report Share Posted August 24, 2007 A bloke at my local site has an M203 on his M4 with both of the foregrips still in place. Needs some dremelling work on the foregrips though. Spent about 10 minutes trying to find the picture, but failed Link to post Share on other sites

Fuser Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 General Mazaki, just an FYI, if you scroll to the bottom of any page and click 'Lo-Fi Version', you'll get a version of the page that only displays text and user posted images. No avatars, sigs or junk. And more fits per page. It'll reduce the Armalite pics thread to 105 pages. Also, I thought this was a pretty good pic. Image credit: Zyphus And 0nslaught, there is a company that makes a RIS that houses a battery IIRC, but I think the quality isn't too great. Link to post Share on other sites

It was originally my plan to make mine like that, but I remembered the PDZ one and had to make it. Maybe that will do... Hopefully the price is feasible. Link to post Share on other sites
Victory Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 You can buy handguard mounted rails and a RIS M203...your best bet right there. Or, if you'd want to spend around $70, you can buy regular styled handguards with built in rails with covers. With the covers on, it looks like a standard handguard. Take the covers off, and you have rails. I think it's made by First Samco. -Vic Link to post Share on other sites
