Accessorizing Carmel / Makasi rifles

first: I need my Makasi to be delivered
second: I believe handguards on both guns are nearly impossible to be changed. It might be possible on Makasi but its manufacturer confirmed that their handguard is one-of-its-kind.

sight: I will move the LVPO currently on my Renegade over until I have money for a 3x Prism from Holosun
magazine: straight metal 5/20RND LAR15 to keep the FAL's vibe
Grip: BCM short grip should be fine
 
Red dot and magnifier are getting pulled off my old rifle. Probably the only things I’ll actually buy for the Makasi is a Magpul k2 grip and a Magpul ACS stock. Got a pile of pmags already.

Handguard is proprietary so I’ll likely have to wait until Brigade does a run of longer handguards.
 
Got a red dot for it already
Put the usual crap on it like a sling and prob a vertical grip of some kind
Don’t think it really needs anything else
 
my MK15

Magpul UCS stock - FDE
Some grip also FDE
BCM stubby handgrip - FDE
some MLOK rail cover things - also FDE
Magpul backup irons maybe
then Either an EOTECH + Magnifier sitting in Unity Tactical mounts or a Sig Tango 1-6 LPVO

I have all this already sitting around
 
I’ll keep it simple as I mostly will use them at the range and under 200 yards. Put small vertical grips on the front and slap one of the truckload of Vortex red dots I have on them. Likely a Sparc AR.
 
Hmmmm, doom spending money; count me in!
Makasi:
-an LPVO,
-an extended front handguard,
-a pronged flash hider (preferably 3 prong, but 4 if I can't find a 3 prong)
-more Stanag mags, 'cause...doom spending, why not?
-case (or more) of M193.
-45 degree canted BUIS

I have to get the rifle in hand before I make any comments or commitments in regard to the butt stock, but I'll probably favour a fixed, propper LOP solid butt stock.
 
My Makasi will likely end up wearing either my Eotech Vudu 1-10x LVPO in a US Defence "Recce" Mount or my Elcan Spectre DR 1.5-6X with its integral Mount. Other accessories will include:

- Geissele 4.5 lb, 2-Stage Trigger
- Magpul Steel Backup Iron Sights
- Holosun HS 507C Offset Red-Dot (or top-mounted on Elcan)
- 2 x 3-slot MLOC Rail Sections for Light and VFG
- Surefire Scout Light with Vampire IR/White/No Light Head and Pressure Switch Rear
- Magpul Rail Vertical ForeGrip
- QD Sling Swivel - Front Left Handguard.
- BCM Gunfighter Grip, Mod 0
- Lage Right Side-Folding Buttstock with 1/2" Spacers and Cheek-Riser (If factory Buttstock is too short for my proper Length of Pull (LOP).
- Mix of Magpul P-Mags and T-Mags, USGI, LAR, Lancer AWM, etc
- Ferro Concepts Slingster 2-point Sling in Multicam

Carmel will likely get my Vortex Razor 1-10 (unless it's a terrible shooter then it gets an Eotech+magnifier) with an offset red dot (Acro or Vortex enclosed Defender), Surefire WML and BFG sling. Small chunk of pic rail at the end of the handguard so I can run a bipod if/when I want to and small chunk of arca by the magwell for tripod shooting. Simple and effective.
 
For my Camel, Vortex Strike Eagle 1-8 LPVO in one of two QD mounts, depending on what height works better with the stock. BUIS are included, I believe. That's about it for mine.
