Buy recommendations Looking for SKS Conversion with PKT foregrip.

This conversion kit is the FAB M4 SKS. Unfortunately it has the rounded foregrip which cannot be replaced from my research.
Anyone seen something like this with a full PKT so I can add something like a Magpul angled?

Also, does foldable or fixed determine whether this is restricted or not? Figured I'd go fixed to play it safe since I am not yet familiar with all the laws etc.

I just drilled holes and mounted a picatinny rail, then mounted a foregrip onto that. There’s enough space in between the rifle and stock for a small nut. I had to clip off a tiny bit of plastic

If I did it again, I would skip the rail and just mount the foregrip directly on

You mean drill holes and screw the detachable directly into the round foregrip? I just wonder if that might look a lil janky. New to guns and mods so not sure how that would work out

Mine is just about ready to come out to play, I have the same FAB defense on my SKS, I bought a picatinny riser that has rails that hopefully give it enough height and long enough rails to add a grip of some sort. If it clears is a different story, and will it be strong enough to handle a grip and the recoil forces. I won't know any of this until I pick it up. I am sure I'll post it up eventually.
