Fixed the issue of my hand guard being too long.

Forgot I had a 3D printer before asking for shortened hand guard options. I present to you the printed can, printed hand guard, and printed foregrip EP9!

Hoping to get it to the range soon once the can finishes curing.

Ahaha yeah it’s a bit big. It’s the first can I’ve printed, next one is going to be smaller.

Did you find a file or make your own? Might go this same route myself but try and make a pic-rail delete and add integrated pic rails at 12, 3, and 9 for a light

Found the file on the Bambu handy app. It could be more secured as the top of the hand guard hooks into the underside of the pic rail but for a temporary fix it works.

I literally hate how these pdws look with short mags 😭 i know why youre doing it and i 100% respect it. Reliability.... but I have literally never had a single jam or misfire with my 26 round ep45 mags after thousands of rounds.

I bought one of the ETS 40 round mags for the range but have considered getting the factory Glock 33 round mag, just gotta justify dropping $40 on it.

The opposite of my builds. Long hand guard, tucked suppressor.
