Yes I did see that Flag model, nice but not for me!

Shot mine for the first time yesterday! We put close to 200 rounds through it. A lot of fun and definitely a softer recoil impulse than my AR9. The GF loves it. The sights were pretty well on too, especially since it was all offhand or kneeling, not bench shooting. I am very happy with it. Well worth the trade.
My Galil is setup like that, left side charging handle and slung cavalry style. It pokes you a little bit but doesn't cause any functional issues. I trained with Ben all day like that and had no problems.

@Camaro45th , Glad I saw your post yesterday as today they are out of stock.

I’m glad I let peer pressure make me order a kit.....until Monday when Ruger announces they are selling their stock one for half the price lol.

I just read that article. Pretty cool to hear of more people being creative.
Has anyone seen that carbon fiber hand guard I think some company with a T makes it. Taccom maybe?
I do not like it.

I noticed that too. The barrel doesn’t move as much as it did with my AR9.

Yeah. Saw that during my searches. The guy made it himself. He does say that the iron sight slightly obstructs the window though.
I have since decided against irons. Today’s red dots are almost indestructible and the battery lasts 5 years of constantly being on. I’ve never seen a military aimpoint go down. They even work with cracked glass or no glass. I think about the only way for them to fail is if an EMP takes them out but some even say they may survive that.
They finally release the enclosed version of the handguard you have?

No. I wrote them twice and they haven’t responded.
They should really work on making that prototype top cover a reality because people will buy other hand guards from other companies that have them now. They aren’t the only game in town now and will suffer.

PMM Ruger® PC Carbine MLOK RAIL + FREE TOP RAIL!
That looks really, really cool. So much so it's a toss up between this and the AK-V.
I think I would follow your example and ditch the front post. And I liked the sight picture in the link I previously posted, a barrel mounted pistol red dot has a nice open view. I'm thinking the new Trijicon SRO would be perfect on this.

@Podmonkey that looks like a nice setup but it also looks front end/muzzle-heavy as all get out. I had a heavy barrel in my AR9 and it did balance nicely- provided you were using a vert foregrip. One of the reasons I sent it to live free in Michigan.
ETA: basically looks like a very quiet 0-100 yard scout rifle.

Well I’ll be damned. LOL. Looks like they ignored me cuz I’m an asshole. lol.
I’m getting this done. This seems to be the best alternative now because it has the quick release sling points already built in.
Betcha they send one to you for free.

I would have to send them my existing handguard so that they can drill and thread the holes.
Okay, beats buying a whole second one. Or maybe they just exchange it? Or maybe the tell you to go fuck yourself, dunno till you ask.
But I am thinking in today's online review culture most companies will try to take care of their customers.

I read that article a while ago ago saying that you would have to send it in and they would drill out

@Camaro45th. I don't know if you noticed this the Ruger factory handguard only has M-lok slots on 4 sides and the Midwestern are on all 8 side, I don't know if it will matter?

I did notice that. You loose them on the 45° angles if I’m not mistaken.
I currently have no intensions of putting anything in the rail. I just want the nicer hand guard, plus I’m hoping the heat transfer won’t be so bad so I can grab the handguard firmly when I want to take it apart after I have shot.

From the website "This bridge is a direct bolt on for current rails that have the 6 threaded holes on the top of the existing rail but you can also send in a previous iteration for a drill and tap service to get the same fitment."

@Willjr75 definitely post up if you have the top rail installed on your PMM forend. They don't really show it from all angles on the site. I was thinking of getting the PMM handguard but then Ruger and others started making the mlok wrap around handguards.
You don't really need 7 side MLok slots. 3 sides is ample. There are numerous styles of 45° offsets for mounting your light in the 9 or 3 o'clock positions if desired.

Yes Pod I do just was pointing out a difference.
Are we telling other people what they need now? Hmmm this place is going to the libs...... lmao
I was just sayin'! Why is everyone mad at me?!
Seriously though, I use a Ariskaka Arms 45° offset on the NYGF carbine and it's a nice lopro piece. It's setup for the Surfire Scout type lights, but I am using a custom Scout pattern body and tail cap from Arisaka and the head is Malkoff Devices. It would be a good setup for the Ruger Mlok as well, its compact and lightweight.
