PureSilver Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 I'm using the GHK PDW mags in it at the moment; According to WGC they're optimized for the PDW, and won't work with a WA system gun, but I can't think why they wouldn't; The only real difference is a lack of a valve lock assembly. [...] I should be able to test a G&P Pmag in it in a couple of weeks, so I'll put it up on here how that goes. Â I'm also curious to see if this thing will take WA-compatible mags, like my ProWin V2s. Not having to buy new mags could tip the balance of my next purchase from true SMG (new Marui MP7 or KSC MP9) to a PDW. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 I'm also curious to see if this thing will take WA-compatible mags, like my ProWin V2s. Not having to buy new mags could tip the balance of my next purchase from true SMG (new Marui MP7 or KSC MP9) to a PDW. Â It *should* be fully WA Mag compatible, according to all the website info - Thankfully a friend of mine owns both Prowin V2's and G&P Pmags, so I should get a chance to test both at some point. I'm pretty confident I'm seeing him on the 11th of November at the sandpit, however with some luck I'll see him before then. Â As far as I know, WA mags work in the gun and GHK do two types of GG Mags - One for WA system guns (Which also work in the PDW), and one optimized for the PDW, which are the ones I bought. These are listed as not suitable for a WA M4, but I don't really believe that's the case - The only noticeable difference is the lack of the valve lock assembly.

PureSilver Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 (edited) Well, when it comes to a compact CQB gun with WA-system STANAG compatibility it's either this, or (for me, anyway) heavily converted Steyr AUGs/MagPul PDWs (although, incidentally, I would kill for the opportunity to make either of those). That said, when you're having to machine an entirely custom bullpup gas system, and throw away the internals of an AEG (PDW) or illicitly acquire a RS STANAG stock (AUG) the magazine cost is least of your worries. Keep us updated - and good luck! Edited October 11, 2012 by PureSilver Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Current status of one of my KWA PTS LM4's (US Edition). I have since moved the DBAL forwards, right behind the front sight. Â Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bladerunner168 Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Is that DBAL RS? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Yup. I just pull it off my real AR whenever I need it. For CQB it's insanely fast both when using it's visible laser or when I'm running the IR with my NODs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RacingManiac Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 What length barrel is that? 14.5? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 The barrel is actually the factory barrel with the front barrel extension removed and it is replaced by two Madbull 2" CCW barrel extensions (4" cumulative). Basically reduced overall length by 1" and changed the look of the barrel profile. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmypie Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 So its 13.5" ? looks just right for that Free float, nice Job for what its worth Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 I guess it is. The KWA OEM extension is around 5" which I always thought was odd since it starts right where a carbine's triangle fixed front sight ends. I was always under the impression that removing the OEM extension would give you a 10.5" barrel but obviously that wouldn't be the case if the OEM extension is 5" long.

RacingManiac Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 So that is a 12" RIS? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 (edited) Correct. It's the Midwest Industries 12" Gen 2 SS-Series Freefloat. I really like it. It's super low profile, slim/skinny (feels thinner than the Troy/VTAC rails), easy to install and relatively inexpensive (compared to other RS rails). Â Â Â ETA: link ^^.

BrooklynBorn Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Uscm- How'd you attach the (Larue?) handstop? Mini rail section that I'm not seeing or...? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MRF Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 (edited) I guess it's just a bolt coming through handguard, and some nut inside. Edited October 19, 2012 by MRF Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Uscm- How'd you attach the (Larue?) handstop? Mini rail section that I'm not seeing or...? On that particular Midwest Industries rail, it has threaded holes all along the rail for mounting Midwest Ind. picatinny rail sections. I simply took a LaRue handstop, trimmed off the excess material that would normally prevent it from sitting flush against the rail, drilled a hole through the handstop and used one of the included pic rail section screws to affix the handstop in place. I also did this to my other LM4 with the VTAC Alpha Rail. but for that one I did need to use a Troy pic rail section backer (included with the rail) to bolt it in place. Â Titleist wrote a great tutorial on it on AR15.com which is highly worth checking out: http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_2_219/215400_Tutorial__Adapting_the_LaRue_Handstop_to_non_railed_forearms_.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PaganSK Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 Wanted something simple, yet had a bit of flair. How did I do? Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 I'd call it a success, looks like a really nice scout rifle. The MOE grips go quite well with the gas block as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
