[Big 3 East] Bersa, Grand Power, and 1911s Galore

Thu, 04/07/2016 - 06:08

POTD: Budget Keymod Handguard

Tue, 04/05/2016 - 14:00

Battle Gear posted this image on their Facebook page. I am guessing it is an April Fool’s joke. The holes in the angled iron looks a lot like Keymod slots. I am curious if the handguard is actually functional and if it would survive firing the AR.
