KRG Enclosed foreend

[MarinePMI]

Guys,

I know @Massoud is the best source for info, but I figure they're all tied up at the NRA Annual Meeting right now.

At any rate, I have an enclosed fore end going on an X-ray backbone that has been converted to a Bravo rear. Everything bolted together nicely. That being said, the mag well is tight. To the point you have to really work getting the mag in, and have to really pull hard to get it out. Anyone else run into this?

What was your solution? Just take a file to the front of the mag well? I'd really like to not screw with the anodized coating, but something has to give here.

At any rate, hoping the Hide hive mind might be able to help...

What brand of magazine are you using and have you tried different makes ?
I'm guessing you have tried a few different but you never know.

If that doesn't work, the trigger guard is slightly adjustable too.

AICS, MDT and AM...

Will try and shift it some (tried once, but just the foreend, not the trigger guard).

Thanks guys! I moved the trigger guard assembly back a smidgen and everything functions fine now (didn't even realize there was adjust-ability in that).

BTW, the enclosed fore end I received does NOT have screws in the mag well like depicted in your drawing. It has a dovetail at the front that the mag well seats into, and two small screws at the rear, attaching it to the fore end tube.

Interesting. I pulled that .pdf off the KRG website, so there must be a version difference between the user's guide and the actual product.

Regardless. Glad you got it sorted out.

Glad you got it sorted, if it gives you any issues just let us know. The Tikka enclosed forend is slightly different than the Rem 700 version, that's the difference in mounting noted above.
Thank you for your business.
