what make is it,and it seems you dont have a gap on the top rail....

If any if you guys with the M-LOK Hand guard want a factory quad rail let me know. I want to trade for an M-LOK rail.
 
Thanks trebor127! The keymod free float handguard is made by NcStar VISM (model# VMP22FFKMM). They come in both 13" and 15" (I got the 13" version). There is no gap because it includes a spacer that locks in between the receiver and handguard/barrel nut. It is made specifically for the M&P 15-22, so it requires ZERO modifications to install and it even comes with the barrel nut wrench!!! They sell on eBay for about $87 for the 13" and $94 for the 15" (I'm not sure how that converts to U.K. currency). I got lucky and just happened to discover it while it was on sale. I paid $72 shipped. Best $72 I've spent!

How do you insert a picture here....:confused:

When I click "Insert Image" it asks for a URL of the image. What is a URL and how do I find it for a given picture?

Such a fun gun to run. Just got my 15-22 a couple weeks ago and I'm really liking the M Lok handguard. Ended up adding additional M Lok type 2 covers at 3, 6 & 9 o'clock positions. Also added XTM covers on the picatinny rail. The texture on the rail covers and the SL grip is fantastic.

Well, after a lifetime of shooting, I took the last 25 years off. I kept six old but great pieces. Two months ago honey and I started, in earnest. She likes it a lot and takes skill development and practice seriously. My old stuff is heavy, her new stuff is not. Over 1000 rounds in her Compact 0 in her new rifle (so far).

I'm not real worried about the springs. Consensus seems to be spring wear comes from constant use, not extended periods of compression only:

I don't travel with loaded magazines in my guns - but the mags are loaded and ready close by if/when needed.


Also note that in our state you can legally carry a loaded handgun in your car as long as the car is in your name and under your control and you can do so without any kind of license. There are no laws against long guns in our state so yes you can leave your mags loaded and in the gun. For me like Texas Element all my long guns have loaded mags near by but not in the gun itself.

Hopefully our open carry without a permit gets pushed through this year.:eek::D
