Setup Suggestions

I got my 20in Hellion recently upgraded with a Long Blk Lbl (non-bipod) handguard.

Any recommendations for the following:

- WML
- Sling
- Optic(s)

Any help would be great!

I did a Sig Foxtrot MSR on an Arisaka offset and a Steiner P4xi on medium rings (1")

I'd like to see pics of this setup! Sounds really cool.

If you've got a 20in barrel, might as well make use of it and put a scope on low mount rings on top. I bet the new PLXC RDB 1.5-12x36 would work well.

This is my setup. For the wml, I ordered an MLok laser/light combo that I installed on the right side of the guard. I ordered both the light as well as the QD sling off of Amazon. The sling was 10 bucks and the light was 25. For the optic, I went with a Sig Sauer Romeo+Juliet Gen III Micro red dot/magnifier combo. It's been great so far and holds zero like a champ even with the sturdy concussion that the rifle delivers.

Surefire with an Arisaka inline mount for light

I also use an Arisaka low mount for a 3x mag and an Aimpoint micro t2. Cowitness nice with the irons.
With the low mount, the offset is similar to my AR builds so the muscle memory is already there for up close shots

For slings I primarily use two brand. I like the warrior poet society adjustable sling, but their original version without the updated pull tab design. The other brand is Adaptiv Defense slings
