I hope Im not the only one that would be interested in green handguards(mlok) for the WK180

Dont know about that but I would be interested in 17” FDE, they only seem to have it in black in that length.

I will inquire about getting 17" FDE.

Nope, I'd be down for ODG too.

Do you have any news re this?

Thanks TNA, I love the 15" on my WK. Barrel nuts were a ##### but worth it in the end

Would the drop-in hand guard fit the wk180? I'm thinking for a retro M16 looking build.

not without heavy modifications (that would probably make it look not so retro anymore). The wk-180 has a large and tall piston that would interfere with the delta ring and handguard. You'd also have to keep the WK's gas block rather than use the FSB.

Hawt. Haven't seen it with a Krinkov before

Longest MLok length is 15" and in red...yuck. Hope they get some black in stock.

Guess where I got it...

I went with the krinkov so I don't have to muck about with indexing, and its dead ###y.

15 - 17” in black would be great! what would be even better is kodiak making longer hand guards for sale... love the stock one but it’s just to short for my taste!

So I haven't seen this posted yet but does this handguard give you any additional clearance around the gas block in comparison to the factory handguard?

 

[nelsonm64]

I see I can now get a 15" in Black! awesome... im sure I read somewhere you can clamp the TNA hand guard to the existing barrel nut. is this true or do you NEED to use an ar15 barrel nut?

sorry for the slow reply. I don't believe you get any extra space, it's roughly the same cross-section as the stock handguard.

yes this is true, just unclamp the factory handguard and clamp on the TNA one.
