Rx Arms Benelli M4 M-LOK® Heat Shield (for Polymer Benelli M4 Handguard)

Just saying I'm willing to chip in as the Entry test guinea pig.

I am SO looking forward to this.  Looks awesome.

I've been waiting for this since you announced it. hoping to get that notification it is for sale soon.

Thanks for the update. Looks great.

a little side shot…

the front bracket is now at the front of the gun, it is secured by the mag cap and a wave washer.  I tried to make it work with the mid gun mount but it had unworkable constraints.  If I didn’t care about tool less takedown this project would have been a breeze, but it was non negotiable.
 

Such a cool product. The time and effort you’re putting in to being innovative products to an older design isn’t lost on me. My M4 is an entry model so I won’t be able to try this but I LOVE how it will allow a “c-clamp” grip. So rad. 

I just ordered a M4 charging handle last night from your site. Keep it up man, your eye for details is what impresses me.

Doesn’t quite allow a 100% c clamp with cowitness RMR mount, but if it’s a picatinny mounted optic it should be okay.

I naturally put my thumb on the 45* surface and I find it very comfortable, my thumb sort of locks into an empty mlok slot.

Got a question for yall.

With the newer update design on this, I had to move the bracket to attach at the front mag tube to address some issues of the last iteration.

currently I am planning to supply a wave washer for under the mag cap to keep mag cap tension, which does work just fine without issue.

Ive also been brain storming alternative methods for the past month with little headway to keep tension on the front mag cap.  Older Remington 1100s used to use wave washers for their cap, so it has been done in the past.  At this point there doesn’t appear to be another path to take but it hasn’t stopped me from thinking about it day and night for the past month.

 I’m wondering for those that are wanting this heatshield, what are your thoughts on the wave washer?  At this point I think I need community feedback, I don’t think there is another method that will be better than the wave washer (the mounting bracket covers the detent), and it is the last piece of the puzzle stopping me from going into production.

A wave washer is probably the best option IMO. Any rough idea on cost or timeline till release? Really looks sharp!

Thanks for the input.  As for release date, looking like the fall at this point.  I think I can bring the cost down more but I’m not ready to say what final pricing will be.  I’m also able to get the RMR mount down in price as well, much less than others on the market.
