Made it all possible - Brigand Arms Blade Handguard for AR 10

I wanted to build a LW large frame AR. When I found this I knew my build had to have it. The way the barrel nut is made, allows the handgaurd to be slimmer than other 308 type HG's. Quality is impeccable and the HG is STOUT! The carbon is very comfortable in cold temps. I tried to use a cheap tool to install it and fudge up the barrel nut. I called to order a replacement, and Brigand went above and beyond. They sent a new one, free of charge. FYI: The barrel nut is the same size as a mil-spec 5.56. Brigand recommends 30-35 lb-ft on it. I used a 308 shim kit to get it perfect. My rifle is right at 6lbs (empty mag, no optics) thanks to Brigand!!
