M2 Parts?

[MP-43]

Hi,

Trying to install an M2 barrel on a Super 90 M1--problem is the M1 forend won't accommodate the redesigned M2 barrel. Question is--where can I get an M2 forend? Google comes up empty, and the big supply houses don't seem to stock M2 parts yet.

 

Thanks in advance.

You dont need a new forend, just modify the one you have. The foot of the barrel hanger where it's attatched to the barrel is longer on your new barrel than on your old one. If you simply remove the plastic or wood in the top front of the forend making the slot about 2 inches long and make some small curved slots on the rear for the ring that meets the receiver, you should be home free.

Thanks for the info Wallhanger--I was trying to avoid making permanent changes, but it's looking like the only option short of shooting it w/o the forend;). Anyone have a spare black synthetic forend they want to let go for cheap?
