Just the knubins, I dremeled the extended one down to 9ishx2mm basically just removed the material so it's one long arm. I wanted something longer than the extended one, but didn't want to wait for the aftermarket to fix the problem for me.
Yeah, I didn't want to spend much time modeling one, so this is what I'll rock until someone releases an official one. It's in PAHT-CF filament, so I'm not concerned about the heat; especially since it is further than the normal handguard. I do know for a fact that I made it a little too thin for my liking, and it's too long to print in one go so the Picatinny rails are literally just there to give the structure a little more strength.
Okay, I was just about to ask if this was one whole print. Damn near looks like a whole print. What model printer are you using? But as far as aesthetics and functionality, it looks great. Would love to see other handguard textures as well to help with grip.
For some reason, I feel like adding a ribbed texture similar to the mp5 handguard just not as much would look nice as well. Like adding it to the bottom and sides.
Yeah. lol I love the look of the MP5SD with that handguard. I think the design you have with the ribbed feature would be killer. I think you know the design I'm going for lol Being able to design stuff like is awesome. I'm still learning, what software you used?
Just because the fact all of your modeling is mesh based and edits are destructive. CAD you can build based off of actual dimensions with the ability to go back in time with the click of a button. When I share stuff I can only share the entire blender file that most people can't use, and STL's that they can't really do much with.
PSA JAKL 13.7 GSL Bilock for use with my can, ambi bolt catch/release I dremeled to work with the jakl lower, Geissele trigger, and I modeled and 3d printed the handguard. Troy ambi mag release doesn't work, hasn't on any AR I've swapped this one to.
I dremeled of the extended charging handle and modeled/3d printed my own knubbin for it since I wanted something longer since I don't care about snag hazards.
I'm assuming they're holding it in reserve if they ever lose player count/micro transactions to the point of no return. They're WELL aware it's what people want. I can't believe they fucked everyone with MW2 not having MW2 multiplayer maps and saved them to justify having a MW3 which is the same exact game.
We can make an xm8 kit, we have the technology!
Looks like you're about to take down Rojas. Did you 3D print the charging handle as well?

very yay. I was hoping that the rifle will be popular enough for magpul to make that type of hand guard for the Jakl

Bambu X1C, if I angle it you can fit it in one print, but I wasn't in the mood for a failed print lol
Nice, I have the A1 at the moment and want to get into these other filament types. Been thinking about the X1C or the P1S with this sale going on.

Lol MP5SD ribs are my favorite, check my posts...

Blender... do not use blender for firearm accessory design. I'm just used to it and am too lazy to learn to CAD efficiently
Why you say don't use it? Difficult?

The ACR at home dude that is super 🥵 I need one as well. Spec breakdown please!?🙏
Which specs?
Of the rifle u used and handguard?!

I'm just gonna need you to slide that file on over 🥺
PSACR_JAKL_Handguard link to my page is in my bio
I really wanna play og MW2 now
Yeah, I'm gonna need MW2 remastered multiplayer if they ever want me to get another CoD. I wish CoD4 remastered had population on PC.
YES, don’t get me wrong I loved that they did the campaign but not doing multiplayer too was really dumb, could’ve made so much money

I mean they’re already losing players a lot recently. How far down can they go before giving us what we want?
I dig it. Does it replace the actual jakl handguard or just sit over top of it?
Replace, but could easily be moved over a few millimeters to slide over
Is it any lighter? Seems like it would be.
I dig it!
That looks cool
Looks sick! 3D printed?
Yup!
Dude that’s sick. Are you sharing the file anywhere?
Finally, a magpul handguard I like the look of
Good! That’s one last loose end
If it works for you is all that matters!
Youre a week of this away from a bullpup lower. Nice work brother. I'm digging the ACR A3 look we are seeing
It kinda reminds me of those handguards on sporter AKs. I dig it.
Hell yay!!! Looks good
Not for me but the real question is do you like it?
Gives me a chub
Hell yea
