waltham_41 52 Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Can anyone recommend any places that have US made forearms? I am not wanting anything fancy, the more factory looking the better. I just want to trade out another foreign part for a US made part to drop my parts count. This is what I have done to a IZ 109 S 12 I have the russian skeleton stock which I am going to count as 2 foreign parts to be on the safe side. I am using the hi cap 10 rd US mags I have a Tromix shark break I have installed a ak style front sight (which doesnt count correct?) I am going to order a US made gas piston That should take care of me as far as foreign parts if I read the posts, right? Appreciate the help guys Quote Link to post Share on other sites

waltham_41 52 Posted November 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Try K-Var or tapco. Didnt have any luck there, unless I am missing something. Any other suggestions are most appreciated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rocinante 100 Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 You are not going to find a handguard specifically for the S12. You can adapt most AK handguards but you have to hog them out for the larger barrel, modify the rear and figure out how to retain the front. I got the regular tapco galil and bought dinzag's retainer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

waltham_41 52 Posted November 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 (edited) I have the modified Tapco handguards and the Tromix Bracket to mount them in stock. Tony Rumore Tromix Corp www.tromix.com Tony I dont see the tapco handguards on you site, what kind of price are we looking at Tony? Or is the Galil handguard I see on your site the one you are talking about? Also, will the adaptor fit on without taking my ak front sight off? I already have it in place and the screws set with locktite Thanks again guys Edited November 5, 2007 by waltham_41 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TonyRumore 1,332 Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 It's the Tapco Galil style handguard. I modify it to fit on the Saiga-12, along with the Tromix bracket. It bolts up just like the OEM handguard. They are $55 for the assembly. You front sight can stay as-is. Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TonyRumore 1,332 Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 It's very hard to get a hold of me, since I can't answer the phone when the welder/Lathe/Mill is running. Or in the middle of blasting, shooting paint, etc.....which is pretty much all the time. So, e-mail me your phone number to Rumore@Tromix.com and I will call you when I take a break.

TonyRumore 1,332 Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 Nope There's nothing to see here. The customer's gun comes out of the box, gets reworked and goes back out the door. Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jmacken37 4 Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 The Tromix Galil foregrip is just a simple drop in mod, right? Thanks, Jake Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waltham_41 52 Posted December 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 Yes it is. Take the factory one off, and put the Tromix one back on using the same screw. Very simple to do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This is part of one building: There's even a pool table just out of view to the left there. Here's a picture of Tony inspecting a shipment in his driveway: This is one day's worth of work that will then be going out tomorrow. If you do visit him, be sure to check out his scrap heap in the back.: I heard of a neighbor kid who built an entire rifle out of parts he found in there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

uzitiger 193 Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 The Halo Manufacturing quad rail handguard is a US made part. http://www.halomfg.com/ I just read that the ATF is harassing them for making 80% side plates for the M-1919 Browning machine gun.
