HK SL8/243/G36 FAQ, Mods, And Info

I’m looking at getting the Hera conversion
This takes an ar15 style butt stock

Anyone done this conversion and I’m after a butt stock
That I can still use my HK sling on.

What butt stocks allow this

also i have the nea magwell,does this still work with the hera conversion?

Hey guys - for the ones who have done the Hera mod, are you having issues with the last round bolt staying open?

mine was a bit too long and would occasionally hit the rim of a case in the mag and bugger things up. filed it down and ok now. check your install - if you don't have the springs right the hold open can float around a bit.

if you want something that will work with the hk sling hook, perhaps any stock with a QD attachment point and one of these:

Does that hook work on a butt stock?
I can see from the stock
Photo it works on the fore end/hand guard

My apologies I’m pretty useless when it comes to this lol

it will work on anything that takes a sling QD (quick disconnect). i can't post pics, but if you google 'QD Paraclip Adapter stock' and go to images you will see a bunch of examples.
 
Getting ready for the swap

How heavy is that module? Let us know how it goes. I've head the new ones don't require any permanent modification but it's difficult to get a solid answer.

I didn’t weigh the Hera block, I’m sure the weight is available on internet.

I’ve got my gunsmith mate doing the work, when it’s complete I will post back with what he says

The only potential permanent modification is one of the springs is too long and needs to be trimmed to size. This can easily be avoided by finding a new spring like I did.

You can basically swap the trigger group back and forth between the Hera kit and HK stock as needed.

Where did you source the spring?
 
Does anyone have any tips for an SL8 flash hider? I'm thinking it will need to clamp the the barrel, the only thing I've found that looks purpose-built is on a very sketchy spanish website
