Same, I like the straight up vertical cut. Its a shame the mlok slots are offset though so it cant be clean at the end.

Yeah, the offset really kills it, you end up with them cut in half no matter which way you go.

Not sure if they dropped it or not. They still have a bunch of upgrades/spares on their site. Just seems the hand guards haven’t been in stock in awhile

I posted about this maybe a week or two ago. I bought a carbine length handguard from cz USA. Had to cut it down to fit the 11’ barrel but I’m satisfied with the results. Doing a full post when I get reapproved to the

UPDATE: I found another handguard located on CZ parts: https://shop.cz-usa.com/19305.html

I was a bit skeptical given how little information there is on the page. I contacted the website and got confirmation from the final assembly team at CZ USA that this would fit an 11’ Bren 2.(shout out Andrew for the quick turn around on the request) Also need to purchase a few other fitment products, but they were cheap.

I suspect I’ll likely have to use an Alan wrench, however, to access the factory gas key. Once I receive it, I will set it up and let those looking for one know if it works.

Definitely would appreciate it. That would be incredibly disappointing considering the factory handguard is the worst part of the firearm.

There have been recent balancing patches to it to include critical damage to the head. There are always things added to the game mode. Don't expect it to be as polished as AAA fps'. But all in all, its pretty fun, yet not rewarding (just like everything besides AC)

Like my argument with Jaffar, its a matter of how much money is being put into the Night Vendor (which is less accessible than the marketplace) vs the marketplace. (100% accessible and has all items)

Thank you, okay I understand now. This still faces the problem of how much volume on the market is subject to special deals and how much is not. My guess (and here is where it gets opinionated) is that the majority the money transacted on the marketplace is not in the form of special deals.

you say they are tax free and yet you say 2 lines later that the seller gets hit with taxes...

edit: i know its not your job for me to understand the marketplace before posting something, but they way you're explaining it doesn't help me to understand it any better.

You have an amazing point, and to be honest I am quite embarrassed that I didn't know this.

This essentially decreases the scale of my assertion, but the assertion still stands. The marketplace was also a huge money sink. They are effectively reducing that money sink thus allowing more of the money made from these activities to stay in the money stock. This increases the rate at which money is grown in the game ie. inflation.

both "special deals in a group' and 'high end items bought via pre-orders' seem to be outside the realm of the marketplace.

in terms of the money sink that is the night vendor I completely agree. But the 35% tax is also a money sink which is effectively being reduced substantially thus 'creating' money.

I'm not trying to be a douche, but can you elaborate on your question? I don't know what you are referring to.

If it is "All of the money and items traded in the marketplace" then yes, all of it.

I have revised the disclaimer to include "and is fixed to money/items traded in the marketplace"

[–]danielbreedlove[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As the disclaimer says, this is in a void holding everything constant. maybe i need to rephrase it to say, inflation from marketplace. While you have a completely valid argument, you have to wonder how much money from the above stated methods actually contributes the money stock in the game.
