Hi

I still use my KWA M4 2GX Carbine but i really want a Free Float RAS.
At the Moment i have a Magpul PTS MOE Handguard, but it has some wobble, so big Problem so far.
But ofcourse Plastic Handguard is not solid enough to mount a Laser Aiming Device etc.

So im searching for "Aftermarket" Free Float RAS which is 100% KWA compatible out of the Box.
i dont want any Modification (like filing,cutting bending....) on the RAS so it should really be a "Plug and Play" Thing" without wobble or other Problems.

Can anybody suggest me a really nice, "sexy", rock-solid and KWA compatible Free Float RAS System  ?
Something like Madbull Daniel Defense or Noveske....

Thank you !

Are you changing the wiring configuration? Where are you planing on having the battery?  PEQ box, etc?

At the Moment i have my Lipo in the MOE Handguard, with a new RAS is have to rewire the cables to the back for a Stocktube Lipo.

A King Arms CASV would be a Option ! It can take my Front Lipo and it sits rocksolid to mount anything like a Laser,Lights etc. But, the extension Rail over the Upper Receiver is to high to use a BUIS even with 1/3 lower Co-Witness trough a Aimpiont with "high Mount".
But 1/3 should still work through a Eotech 551/552/XPS or low mounted Aimpoint.
In EU the CASV is around 150Euros, very expensive.
I dont know, the CASV is only a Handguard with Rails.....not a Free Float RAS and i get a nice RAS with rear wiring for less Money!

So the CASV is not really a alternative...

Have you considered adding a KWA free float rail?  That would require no modifications.

[Outlaw1995]

Where would you be able to find the KWA free float rail? Can't seem to find them on the proshop...

[gcw360]

Call for availability.  It's limited but it does occur.

[Outlaw1995]

In terms of buying a kwa free float rail for the lm4c... how long or what length should i ask for when calling?

[gcw360]

Well that really depends on the length you want.  The hand guard on the LM4C I believe is 7 "...so an SR7 would work. Again, that's if it's in stock.

I really want something like Daniel Defense or Noveske...a real Steel Clone.

G&P makes a "Defender" rail, a black clone of the DD MK18 RIS. The weapon itself was a run of 500, so I don't know how easy the rail is to find.

I have a daniel defense rail on mine and it fits great.

Thanks Greg! Quick question since I'm not going to be able to call KWA tonight: Do you have any idea on pricing? Even an estimate would help.

[gcw360]

Sorry, no info on that one.

I think first of all i will install a "MadBull M4 LiPo Ready T6 Aluminium Stock-Tube".
But i have to make a bigger Modification for this Tube to fit.
The Inner Tube on the Upper Receiver (where the Stock Tube sides on) needs a cut because its to long for the Madbull T6 Tube.
Its more or less simple as shown in the Video Tutorial on the Madbull Site

After this i will by a Madbull DD or Noveske 7" Free Float RAS.
My 2GX is Carbine Lenght, would a 9" Fit or only 7" ?

And after cutting the length of the upper receiver tube you will need to file down the sides so a dremel will come in handy.  KWA is a bit beefier than other brands so you will need to do some sanding work to make the buffer tube fit.
