New to me Firebird questions


Garmil

Recommended Posts

Just picked up a used Tac-12.

 

It does not have a forward charging handle does anyone know how or where to get one? Does the tooth and nail version interface in the same way?

 

Just took it all apart and doing a deep clean now.

Whether or not the T&N parts will interface with the Firebird upper is a question for Firebird and T&N.  I suspect not since the upper receiver is made by Firebird and uses a different method than stock to secure the handguard.  The shorter handguard that Firebird makes does have a left side charging handle, but it's shorter, probably by an inch.  I would start by contacting Firebird.

Yeah just looking at the 2 I'm guessing the charging handle wouldn't work the same. My carrier does have a notch for it and the handguard piece has a detent so my long version should work the same as the short.

 

Already contacted firebird, it's not the end of the world to get one but I would prefer to charge in the handguard than receiver.
