Palm rest setup help

[ctshooter]

I'm hoping this is the year I will be able to get into FT a bit. I'm setting up my Uragan Compact .177 for the task but not sure what to look at for a palm rest setup. 

There's a small pic rail between the air tank and rigger. I currently have one of the small Saber ARCA adapter on it. I also have the UC aluminum handrail which give a bit of a longer pic rail on the bottom. 

Where I am struggling is that all of the palm rests I see are designed to attached either directly to a stock or to a UIT/T-Rail. I've tried to find an adapter that will go from either pic or Arca to a T-rail - but I'm not finding anything. 

I'm open to getting creative and was thinking maybe there was a way to attach an arca mount to a palm rest riser somehow?

Any input would be appreciated.

seems like you could use a picatinny to mlok and then bolt to the mlok rail?

alternatively, you might be able to remove the pic rail or arca adapter, and drill and tap it for the rest mount.

I'll look into the mlok solution - thanks. The drill and tap is an idea for the handrail as well. Appreciate the input.

i meant drill and tap the arca adapter, then put it back on and mount the palm rest to the arca rail piece. this would avoid modifying the rifle itself.

Gotcha.

Did a quick search and I found a Pic to MLok adapter and a MLok to UIT adapter so going to pursue that route before pulling out the drill.

Not sure exactly what you want the finished product to look like but Motorhead had a couple on his guns which I thought were sweet.

I myself made a similar type not so much for a palm rest but to relive unnecessary loading on the bottle of my Prophet but discovered it works excellent as a palm rest improving the ability to steady the offhand hold.

I got some parts in this week and would like to reiterate my thanks. The two adapters together give me a nice UIT slot.
