Why not just leave the handguard naked? To me that attachment looks out of place. It just doesn’t blend in right and looks like it doesn’t belong.What do you think gents? This was originally meant for my Mossberg project as a cheek rest but I think with some more finishing work could be a cool forend for the PCC. It is currently just sanded and not the final color.
I was thinking of adding more wood or at least something like the Mcarbo neoprene recoil pad only in leather that is a similar color to the wooden forend.
I should also say it feels good in the hand. I just like mixing wood with newer, not so fuddish type guns. Like an AR with wooden furniture (the right kind) is something I like a lot. It sucks there really isn't, at least at this point, more stock options for the PCC. If they ever come out with a wooden one, I'd probably be all in.They have Mlok rail covers in all sorts of colors and materials. Even rubber ones. These are some random ones I pulled up.
I like the way it looks.What do you think gents? This was originally meant for my Mossberg project as a cheek rest but I think with some more finishing work could be a cool forend for the PCC. It is currently just sanded and not the final color.
Thanks! I do too and it is very comfortable to hold by the way. Where I placed it is where both me and my GF have our support hands holding the rifle. I did notice when I was shooting this gun that the handguard did get hot so this should help a lot with that. I do however, wish there was more wood on this gun. Not that I have anything against polymer. I just see a lot of companies making chassis for this gun which will aim to try and make it more like an AR15, which it isn't. The gun has a normal rifle stock on it which is traditionally made of wood. Even if they had to leave the mid section with the receiver and magwell polymer, they could have it so that you could attach a wooden buttstock or yes, even a pistol grip with buffer tube and adjustable stock.
I wonder if maybe he did a Bubba trigger job on it.
Definitely what I considered. I wouldn't expect Ruger to put out something that would allow that to happen but I know things can slip past QC. Also know that any drop in replacement triggers aren't exactly battle tested yet.
Yeah, he probably tried to do his own trigger job and took too much off a sear surface.
Christ, did they send it at the "who cares if it gets there" rate?
This has nothing to do with Ruger fulfilling distributor orders. They indicated to @dsdmmat a month ago that his gun had shipped...SHIPPED...and only now is it getting to his dealer??? Super happy his gun came in, but damn. Fuck that shit. If I ordered something and the company told me it shipped a month ago and it is only now showing up, I'd be pissed.
No I got an email from my dealer saying she had ordered it. That week I came back into town expecting to see it, she tells me the distributor screwed up the order and sent 9mms instead. She finally got the 40s in this week. Not a biggie, built my poly80 in 40 anticipating the PCC would eventually get here. Now they are a matching pair.
Shot the 40 today, I mounted Romeo 5 red dot on it and left the high mount on it for now. It groups fairly decent at 25 yards with both the white box Winchester and my reloads. Shot 100 round through it today and had 2 misfeeds with the white box stuff. No miss feeds with my reloads, 170 gr lead Truncated Cone. It is a little heavy for a carbine, but nothing unmanageable. Looking forward to getting it out a little more.
