Has anyone done this or have a picture of a karta body on an am/mm rail? Im wondering if i cut the lip off of the front if it would be flush with shorter rail. Trying to build a compact y gripped mag. If not, does anyone with a karta body want to snap a pic of it on said am/mm rail for me?
ef man dont cut the front off.Quote:

yeah i wouldnt cut that either...ive got a phoenix body and a rpg exile body and you can even tell once the barrel is on...
I wouldn't recommend cutting it down either, but if you do, make sure it's as sexy as mine:

X 3 please for the love of all that is sacred... Don't cut it. There are other custom body choices that are am/mm length, like the DW Chord.
The problem is, i found a killer deal on a Karta body that i dont want to pass up. Ive been looking for AM/MM specific bodies, but with no luck. I like the look/feel of a shorter setup.Quote:

Wow! Ballsy move cutting a karta. I honestly did not think any one was going to come through with a photo of that. How well does it line up with that dallara rail?Quote:

Speaking of which, why do we only have a two choices in custom AM/MM bodies (Chord and Dallara)?Quote:

I'll bet if you took your time you could do some work on a stock rail to make it blend pretty well. I actually like the shortened body better than the longer.
Thank you, sir!Quote:

I set my karta on one of my Slim ULE rails, it looked horrendous, you don't want to see the underside of the body, its rather unattractive.
Thanks man! Also, I modified the body myself. :)Quote:
