essohbe 47 Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 I am looking for a metal lower handguard with rails on it, I wanted to know if anyone knows of one that I can use a regular gastube with? I don't like the MI one's because you can't take the gastube off easily and quickly. The UTG pretty much the same problem... I've seen the Blackjack one - it's metal but I have been told you need the upper handguard to secure it for some reason. Are they any that exist where I can still use a regular gastube in conjunction with? I wonder if there are any long ones too, that extend tot he gasblock maybe? Thanks for any info.

vulcan16 971 Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Removing the UTG is quick and easy. Four small Allen head bolts, plus how often do you remove the gas tube? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
essohbe 47 Posted March 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Removing the UTG is quick and easy. Four small Allen head bolts, plus how often do you remove the gas tube? Everytime I'm done shooting like you should, if you shoot the corrosive ammo like I do. That thing gets dirty as shit in there. It seems easy yeah but the point was to be able to remove it like normal, know what I mean? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pjj342 632 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) This is the chaos 7.62x39 short rail. Four allen head screws and your tube is able to come off. Theres no screwing around taking the lower part off, just to clean your gun. The upper part just slides off and the lower stays rock solid. it kicks ass Edited March 13, 2012 by Boomsick42 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DFM56 1 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I use a midwest lower handguard with no upper rail. You need to take a little bit of the heatshield off of the stock saiga gas tube, but it really isn't a big deal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NM0 586 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Ergo has one. Don't see it on their website anymore. Do see it at various vendors online. Tried it out on my mini Draco. Seemed fine but needed a better mounting method for the mini. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
