Looking for a foregrip...

**RASelkirk** · 06-08-2015 07:01 PM

I know the M1 icon

did not come with one, but am hoping somebody here will have an idea. I bought an "Owens" slider and it feels like it needs a "Tommy gun" looking fore-end grip to be right. This stock seems to be made from nylon or ABS and has a nice flat base on which to mount one, should I ever be able to find one with (at least) the same angle of the rear grip.

I've asked my local dealer, but I don't think he's understanding what I'm looking for. I'm pretty good at adapting stuff to fit, so anything close that might work will be looked at.

Thanks!

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Maybe you can cobble one out of an AR grip? You should be able to take the top down a bit and make a top plate with nut up? There are others for AR that might be do-able too...

You know, you see M1A1 icon

pistol grips for sale separately. Buy one of them and modify it. That would look sorta cool...

what is that "lump" under the gun for (south of the hand guard)? Actually pretty simple, put a small picatinny rail on the bottom of that and attach an ar foward grip

Funny you mention that, was looking on E-Bay today and found several likely candidates that fit a Pic rail. That "lump" is the fore grip. If you look down inside with the action removed, it's a hollowed out compartment with 3 reinforcement walls. Perfect for a Weaver or Pic rail...
