This does not fit billet
This does not fit billet upper. Diamondhead does not let you know this in any of there videos or notes. Upper will have to be modified to use this hand guard.

Saw many videos on this i
Saw many videos on this item, and Diamondhead has quality stuff. This fit the bill. It was just what I was looking for: Slightly flat underside, good feel not huge with un-needed rails. Can add the rails if you need them. Makes my black gun with a heavy barrel look lean and mean.
