Tactical Force TF16 Sight Mod

Tugg · January 19th, 2010, 18:22

so yesturday my brother was looking at his TF16 and said he didnt like the way it looked with the carry handle but he REALLY didnt like the way it looked with no rear sight at all. i went to the gallery and showed him some other M4 setups and he was sold.....per say....

Cost=$0.00
Time= maybe 5 minutes

now he needs to buy some paint and ill finish it for him. pics mounted w/ and w/o paint will come soon.

Yeap, Lots of people cut their carry handles down to make a crude BUIS.

Looks good man, well done.

what did you use a dremel?

Tugg · January 19th, 2010, 23:42

no just put in a vice and cut it with a hack saw. thought about using a dremel but i dont have the best attachment for cutting plastic.

Don't forget to Sand before you paint

THE CLEAR!!! IT BURNS!!!

Ok, just kidding. Yeah, that's a pretty common mod that looks pretty good when done right. And looks like you did it right.

thx for the feedback. my bro is looking at the Magpul MOE stock (hence my last thread) so i was wondering if anyone knows if it will work with the TF16.

If it does you'll have double the resale!!

ya lol the stock itself is worth half of what the gun is... but hes getting it off ebay for $35..

I'm not 100% sure, but I believe the stock on the TF16 attached the same way that it does on the cheapo Firepower (which is basically what it is) and it's not a TM compatible mount. I could be mistaken though. I know there are a few of the low end guns that use that different stock attachment, and I believe this is one of them.

well here it is after about 3 coats of flat krylon. i think it turned out pretty good. colored in the fire selection etchings with some chalk.
