Seeing mention elsewhere that normal S-12 to AK handguard retainers don't work with this one.
Is this a no way in hell, without a specific Tromix mfg retainer, or can it or the retainer be made to fit somewhat acceptably? There was a ton of DIY modding and fitting back then and I keep seeing mention, any AK lower handguard except this one.
Not understanding the actual issue.
Have enough pieces to start cloning the Saiga 12 Gabe Suarez used in his book, DVDs and articles about them back in the day, this Tapco Galil AK handguard is a pretty distinctive feature on it, but I'm not even going to try finding the Tromix retainer for it.
I bought my Lynx in 2018 IIRC and found out right away the aftermarket on Saiga's wasn't there anymore, like when I had my Izhmashs. I don't want a 20 dollar Tapco part standing in my way, how can I make it work?
