Can you elaborate? What kind of firearm are you trying to fit this handguard to? Something like an MRA Renegade? Yes, it’s possible, provided you have the requisite length of barrel for the handguard you’ve chosen, fixed front sight base, triangle end cap, delta ring, and barrel nut. It’s not impossible by any means, but nor is it exactly plug-and-play if you’re dealing with a free-float barrel. You’ll have to acquire all the parts you need and have a gunsmith fit the front sight base, unless you go with a clamp-on type.

Thats a DTI ar15 in the image. Op is using that image just for reference

I figured that much, I would hope that OP has enough common sense that he’s not coming to Reddit to ask how to fit a triangle handguard to his AR15.

OP wants to make their TM22 looks like an assault-style M16 😊

u/PT6A-27 Apr 19 '26

Yes - that information was not in the post initially, it was added by OP after the fact.

I have a feather, and also have installed a 12 inch handguard. mine is the Diemaco c7 style one though. Id assume they both fit the same anyways.

I know that AR pattern rifles should, and the youtube video you likely watched used a Delta ring. With my tm 22, i decided not, to since id have to lob off the front bit of picatinny, since i wanted to keep the modification non-invasive, and forgo the delta ring.

fitting the handguard on will just be marking and Dremeling it down to size, and if you also want to keep it non invasive, cut a slot in the top to slide around the picatinny.

(otherwise you're on your own about going with the delta ring)

The Factory front sight post, however bad it may be, will hold the Handguard cap down well as long as you tighten it enough.

So far, i found my installment really nice, lots of more grabbing room, decently solid and not loose or wobbly, and its looks went from "meh" to "kinda ugly but i like it"

Did you use a airsoft hand guard or a real one

u/Geralt-of-Rivai Apr 18 '26

The feather has a clamshell handguard but it's way shorter than the M16 or even M4, it's a proprietary size

u/tastyburritosRgood Apr 18 '26

is that a yes if not The barrels pretty long and i think i can move the front sight foward to fit it

u/Geralt-of-Rivai Apr 18 '26

I haven't tried but I don't think the front sight post will accommodate a standard AR clamshell handguard, it doesn't have the same fitment for the ring on the end. But you should have the length, if you can MacGyver some way to get it to hold against the receiver and site post

Check out Gnutzguy on youtube. He’s got a tutorial on exactly what you’re looking for. Requires a bit of work to get it all to fit but it’s possible to put m16 handguard and stock on a tm22.

u/tastyburritosRgood Apr 19 '26

Yeah but the title says not feather because the polymer receiver

You’ll have to mess around and figure it out but the video can give you an idea of what’s involved. It’s kind of a niche project tbh, there won’t be tons of info out there.

I might give this project a shot over the summer but haven’t had much luck finding the parts needed.

No they'll classify the weapon you're putting it on as prohibited if you do
