[QUOTE="Maverick21, post: 3709352, member: 8652"] Quick update. Managed to get it bored out to fit and encountered a number of other issues. 1). The shims to time the handguard don’t fit over the barrel so timing is going to be a pain. 2) the ears of the handguard that hug the side of the upper around the base of the picatinny rail are too close together to fit the handguard onto the upper 3) even if I could get the rail mated up, the rail on the receiver sits slightly higher than the rail on the handguard. All in all, I’m convinced now that there is nothing on this rifle that’s 100% mil spec, including the upper receiver. Waiting on Les Baer to give me a shout after he returns from Shot Show [/QUOTE]
