Looks great. I am really getting the itch for a set of those handguards. I just added a type A stock that I polished up over the weekend. Round proto guards would really set the build off.

Are you doing anything for heatshields? I saw someone used some kind of silver insulating tape.

Here is my furniture for my prototype build, refinished in Rustoleum "Kona Brown 2X"  with primer mixed in it already. Well, they are so pretty, I thought the project was worthy of its own "how to" thread.  

The handguards are the AR10B handguards that Mike and Harlan sell (along with the round handguard cap) at Nodak Spud.  The stock was a real BTDT, BFPU Type D stock that looked like the surface of the moon.  I prepped it with light weight auto body filler from Auto Zone, the kind with the red hardener.  

First I cleaned it with alcohol, used the filler, rough sanded with medium steel wool in about 30 minutes, then let it cure over night.  Final sanding was done with a medium grit foam sanding block.  Cleaned it a second time with alcohol, then painted in two light coats.
