Decent handguard - Hogue AR-15/M-16 Mid Length Free Float Forend with OverMolded Gripping Area

mbyoung72's Review of Hogue AR-15/M-16 Mid Length Free Float Forend with OverMolded Gripping Area
Here is some very useful info. So this is a nice handguard but there are some issues. You cannot use an AR wrench and torque wrench to install the barrel nut. Instead it comes with a terrible little plastic tool which takes an engineering degree to figure out how to use. Then this tool slips around the handguard and you are then instructed to use emory cloth between the handguard and tool to stop slipping. The handles are really short so you will just about blow a gasket trying to get enough torque on the nut. If you are determined to use the handguard save yourself a headache I buy a strap wrench before installing.
