Installation Instructions

Installation Instructions For Long Forend (R4): Tools required:1/8" allen wrench and flathead screwdriver. Make sure magazine is removed and chamber is empty. Installation assumes bipod forend is installed and must be removed and also that gun is C/CA model, A + B models also require front sight removal for install. STEP1 Unfold bipod as if in use and remove spring that is between the two bipod legs. The spring legs sit in pockets and can be pulled out. STEP2 Next the pin that retains the bipod leg on the pivot pin must be removed. With bipod positioned almost perpendicular with barrel as if in use but slightly folded back toward reciever pinch the bipod legs towards one another at the point towards the muzzle. This should have the pin positioned so that by using a utility knife or other thin narrow tool it can be pushed out. A toothpick or pc of wire may be needed to push it the rest of the way out. STEP3 With the pin removed grab a hold of the bipod leg and pop him off the pivot pin. STEP4 With bipod leg removed pivot pin is slid out of the gas block. STEP5 Now remove the retaining clip that is located on the barrel nut. STEP6 Now the the ring that locks the bipod in the folded position when not in use must be removed. This must be split. While the aluminum forend will fit if not removed, the interface strength will be greatly diminished if not allowed to go all the way over the barrel nut and against the shoulder. The split ring seems to work fine when reassembled in stock bipod configuration but I would not plan on being able to go back to that configuration to be on the safe side. To give yourself the best chance of going back to that configuration I would split the ring 180 degrees from the gas block orientation feature of the ring. I would also split it as thin as possible (dremel blade or hacksaw). We used snips. Slide off barrel nut and over the barrel to give clearance for cutting. Once cut slide gas tube back to remove ring. STEP7 Next remove spring that sat behind the ring. STEP8 With bipod assembly removed the aluminum forend can be installed. STEP9 Remove clamping screw post and screw from forend. Slide forend over barrel and back onto barrel nut. STEP10 Make sure forend is all the way back over barrel nut and against the shoulder. STEP11 With gas tube in place orient forend so gas tube to forend top slot reveals are even. Place clamping screw post in place and then screw. Tighten down to 9-10 ft/lbs. Blue Loctite is a good idea as well.

Incredible Forend!!!	July 25, 2015
Reviewer: BROCK from TX United States

Iv been waiting a while for these to be in stock. Finally saw them and ordered it and let me say you won't be disappointed...I have the su16c and it just makes it feel so much more solid. I got the magpul AFG2 grip on it and this thing is a blast. Thank-you Redlion! Shipping was fast, service was great, and install was pretty simple.

SU 16 R4 FOREND	April 18, 2013
Reviewer: S. Ramsey from santa rosa, CA United States

I recently purchased a R4 forend for my Keltec SU 16. The product shipped fast, and was exactly as specified on the website. After reading the installation instructions, I removed the factory bipod and had the new forend on in minutes. Once installed I added all sorts of accessories and tested it. It worked like a Swiss watch, no problems and the craftsmanship was wonderful. GREAT BUY!!!!!!
