When reassembling the GROT, you will need to skillfully align the lug of the lo- wer receiver with the handguard, and its lateral „wings" into the space between the handguard and the upper receiver shroud, but it is not rocket science. Just remember to join the receivers with the BCG in the locked position and the ham - mer cocked. Pro-tip: it is worth investing in both small and large torque wrenches. A small one with settings roughly be- tween 1–5 Nm and a large one between 5–25 or 5–30 Nm. They don't cost a fortune (no one ne- eds to buy top-tier professional tools), and they really come in handy—not just for the GROT, but also for mounting ad- ditional accessories on all sorts of fire- arms. In the case of the GROT, torquing the bullpup handguard to the specified value will prevent damage to the clamp and ensure mounting repeatability, whi- le torquing the barrel to 23–25 Nm eli- minates the possibility of it loosening spontaneously and helps maintain zero repeatability for your optics. Additional Accessories There is a rail, there are M-LOK slots, so you just have to mount something there, right? When setting out to mount accessories on our bullpup GROT, we must remember one fundamental thing: there is SIGNIFICANTLY less space on the top rail because half of its length is covered by the top cover, and even hand - guard for the 16" variant does not com- pensate for this. A rough measurement shows that while a „classic" GROT with an A2 handguard offers about 52–53 cm of rail space, the bullpup version with a 16" handguard offers only 34 cm.
