What about FAB, VISM, UTG, Troy? Any one compare these to Magpul?

If you rebarrelled it to 7.62x39 you'd have to source a bolt that would fit the carrier.
A restricted version is only a short barrel install amd a call to the cfo away.
And then wait for the frt evaluation.
You will be fine with whatever you slap on there for irons. If you are specifically looking for BUIS, you will likely want flip ups. FAB Defense would probably be your best bang for your buck.
I see a lot of negative reviews... I have no practical experience with them however, so I cannot comment.
They will all do the task at hand. However, the Troy flip ups are in a league of their own. Better have deep pockets though.

How do you know if there will be enough clearance inside the 180c frame?
I was never particularly bothered by the lack of a hold open when I was shooting the 180C this weekend. It locks up on an empty mag, and if you really need to lock the bolt open you can reach inside the mag well and push up on on the hold open with a finger.

Ah. I doubt its something I will ever miss, but would love to hear back when you get it installed.
As far as the Kodiak rep said, we had our hands on the production version. Medium weight barrel and A2 flashhider, solid feeling handguard with MLOK, no rattle in the receiver and the charging handle didn't feel like it would snap off (and I didn't baby it).
The trigger left a lot to be desired, but that's a standard unit so I can drop anything in, same with the selector switch, they used a lower profile switch than I'd prefer. The bolt felt like it ran a bit rough, but through use and some polishing, should run perfectly fine.
This was my experience, they did have some stoppages throughout the day, but chances are that was ####ty mags.
