Could be better....
Could be better...the mold they used to recreate this A2 hangaurd. Could have used a little more hand work and finishing before production. Maybe it's just me I will be the first to say I'm a little too picky. But the price and a little help turned out to be great.. I would buy it again.?

Good Feel/Fit On A SP1/Colt AR-15
These are great military fit guards. Used these to replace my old SP1 triangles and I am happy no more pinching the hand.

Fits like a glove!!!
Received handguard today (9/17/21) was told in the Q&A section it would not fit the triangular retaining cap on my upper, dropped the ball on it since it was the best deal I've seen, put it on my upper, and man it fit like a glove!!!! I'll include pictures to describe how the front is notched so it will fit most caps out there. P.S., I'm running it on a PSA Dissipator upper, and the handguard they put on from the factory are a little too chunky for my liking
