Will the pig fit into the TRX Extreme? Im talking slide all the way through the tube, not threaded on after the handguard is installed. I am going to have it pinned and welded on.
Looks like it
yeah i googled already and saw pictures and people who used a strap wrench to tighten it down AFTER the handguard was installed. But i will have to weld it once its on and i really dont want to try and weld through one of the holes in the TRX
Are you sure they didnt slide that over the KX3 in the pic?
Im not sure why it wouldnt slide all the way over.
Its the same diameter in the back as in the front
Its saying that he used a rail that could slide over the KX3.
In the pic, he didnt use a strap wrench.
Someone else had mentioned that
No its not the same diameter. It is smoothed out near the front and bumpy the rest of the length
Just speculation, but you may have trouble sliding the rail on over the Pig if you have any accessories installed on the handguard, like the rail sections in the pic, or a sling swivel point. The hardware takes up some space on the inside of the handguard.
On the inside of the TRX?
I guess I never looked at mine that close.
What length barrel is this going on if you dont mind?
Are you putting it on for looks or is it for a 7.5" barrel?
You want alot of fire and to look cool?
Its a TRX 15" and a 14.5" barrel. I cant decide between the pig and the Troy claymore, i know the claymore will fit but was considering the pig because i like the look better.
Got it.
Those things are heavy man, and long.
Thats 3 inches to the length of your rifle.
I had the Claymore for awhile, I took it off after a week.
Honestly I would go with an A2 1.5"
A KX3 will fit all the way through the TRX.
Im thinking the same thing.
Its the same diameter all the way through.
There is no taper.
There is defiantly a taper, well more a difference in diameter. The last 3-4 inches near the muzzle are filed down smooth. Beyond that towards the barrel nut there are bumps that are obviously sticking out much further than the smooth section near the muzzle.
I don’t like defiant parts on my gun. :blink:
I have to say that looks freaking cool. I have a 15" TRX rail with a 16" barrel and don’t think it would look that cool.
I do think if I kept the 15" rail and went to a 14" barrel and pinned/welded it on it would be awesome!
Why? I have one on a SBR with the intention of deflecting sound while indoors, but honestly I can’t tell the difference. I just don’t know if it’s worth the effort to swap an A2 on.
Bauer C, As for the KX3, if you’re choosing it for the look there’s really nothing constructive that can be said to dissuade you. Still, that’s a lot of chunk to be mating to a 14.5 for no functional benefit.
The inside of the TRX handguard is constant all the way through.
the ID of TRX is 1.47", the OD of the pig is 1.35"
a better option might be Samson rail, it has slightly larger ID.
But, but, it looks soooooo bitchin’!:rolleyes:
Seems that’s becoming important her on M4 lately. :cray:
Gives it that, “hey I’ve got a suppressor” look. Op, you do know they’re intended for a sbr right? Or are you planning on using it as a wire cutter?
