NEA Hand guards - redeux

Here's a couple of pics of the new style handguard with 2 x 2" rail segments installed. Makes it quite easy to install a light or a fore-grip.

We spent a couple hours shooting yesterday. Even after putting a couple hundred rounds through my 858 as fast as i could the hand guards were still not to hot to touch with bare skin.
 
Guys i have 2 quick questions...

1) is there a way to have a Magpul AFG on NEA Lower.. ???? i remember seeing some one try it out on the Gen.3 lower, but i'm sure it wasnt too steady (because that little rail on the Gen.3 h/g only fills up 1/3 of the space for the rail on the AFG).. Now this new one Gen. 4 seams to have a longer rail on the bottom, but also bigger angle , so Is it really possible to have a nice and tight AFG on it...

2) what is the maximum length for a bottom rail on NeA Lower..?
is 2" and 6" are the only available lengths..?
 
I run a AFG on my NEA lower (old style). No problems. I haven't tried it on his new lowers though. If I get the time I'll drop one on and find out unless someone else can chime in?
 
ok... i got it... it is truly awesome...tight and light... :)

But i noticed that the bolts that go with the add on rails are a bit too short..
The ones on the sides are kinda ok but still another 1/8 vouldnt hurt. And on the one that goes on the bottom... the rear bolt is barely grabbing, and the front bolt cant rich the "nut" at all ,so i had to use a longer bolts on some of those rails...
Not a big deal..

Say Dmitri - is that an ACE skeleton stock you have there? And what are you using to attach it to the receiver ie the folder attachment?

Thanks.

I am looking forward to getting my hands on some new parts... Your AR stock adapter with cantilever mount has really been growing on me... especially if it would line up a magnifier inline with my compm4s...

Really looking forward to getting the new lower handguard.

Will you be offering any AR hand grip adapters or anything of the like in the future?

We ran a prototype for the Ar grip. Not sure if its worth the trouble.

Do you have any pictures or thoughts on why you feel it is not worth the trouble?

I find the factory hand grip is a bit too small for my hands but I find the grips currently available too "trendy" for my taste.

I fit an AK SAW grip to my CZ with little trouble. About 10 mins with a small file and fits like a glove. PM me if you want pics.
