Mp5 Narrow Forearms?

Does anybody know where to get one of those these days? Does anybody make them anymore? All the ones seem to be wide type navy foregrips while I know a lot of people like the narrow ones like they used to make for most of the classic Mp5s back in the day.

Maybe if you specified wich model it is, or included a picture.
Narrow handgard, I'm thinking MP5A4. Or maybe the early models used by the SAS? They had a slim, texturised handguard.

RRAGES(http://rrages.com/slim/index.htm) makes them out of HK-91 surplus foregrips for the GSG-5. You could also get an HK-91 foregrip and make your own.

Thanks, that's pretty awesome. I will check that out. I've also seen vented foregrips for realsteel Mp5 on sale on some US gun forums but not for a long time now.

What I was referring to specifically was just from memory of some really old airsoft. I just had a look through the classic "Marui Man" video of the very early AEGs and if you goto 8:32 of the video you see what I mean:

YouTube- 1991 Tokyo Marui "Marui Man"

I still have two converted MP5 mags that I made somewhere. I was trying to make straight (the old style) MP5 mags, and ended up cutting off the top of an MP5 midcap, and adding it to an old UMP (I think) magazine I had. I never got around to making a slim fore-end, but it would look better with the straight magazine.

The right place is to get age verified first.

As the OP of this thread from long ago, I've given up on the narrow forearm idea. I've seen a few rare models from real steel but it's bit of a hassle to aquire them.

I'll probably go for this one day though, I really like this look:
http://rrages.com/slim/index.htm


Won't leave me any room for a battery though. It's interesting, the real steel GSG-9 is basically an airsoft design based Mp5 with very little to do with the real Mp5 that is a real firearm so it accepts airsoft accessories and vice versa. A common mod for GSG-9 owners is to put on Classic Army parts like the stock cap as they are metal whereas some of the stock GSG-9 parts are not.

HAHA, looks really good though. I wouldn't mind getting an MP5 again if it looked like that.
