When I got this handguard, I spilled out all the hardware to group it according to the manual. That was when I realized not only was I missing about a third of the needed hardware, and there were several parts (large bolts, lock washers, etc) included that were not in the manual and had no apparent use for this product whatsoever.

I decided to try to make it work anyway and ran into even more issues. The bottom part of the handguard absolutely will not fit as it is, and attempting to see what I could do to make it fit, I would have to dremel off all of the material on the front that is intended to stabilize it laterally, and, you know, try to keep some semblance of zero.

Then I tried to mount the top handguard to see if that would even be viable. No matter what, it seemed like I couldn't get it straight on the gas tube. Come to find out, the slot for the picatinny rail on the top is literally molded in crooked by about 10 degrees. There is literally no way I could ever get it straight. Even if it was straight, it didn't hold on to the gas tube well so my guess was it would lose zero quickly anyway.

TL;DR, extremely cheaply built, will not fit at all, and even if you could make it fit it would be awful.
