I got my new ICAR receivers in yesterday and assembled for my 6arc build. My geissele rail wouldn't work without trimming the anti-rotation tabs so I just decided to order the Sabre QDSM handguard instead anyways. The one I got is SKU 51655236896, do these come with a tab to lock into the upper? I see a rectangular slot cut by the gas tube hole and assume thats to lock a handguard into.

When they say the upper is thermal fit, they freaking mean it. Granted the coating thickness has part to do with that, but I had to stick the barrel in the freezer and my upper in the air fryer longer than I had to do my last BCM. |

I noticed the same cut on the front of the enhanced receiver set and asked over on Reddit about it, and got this response. Attached File Also noticed this exchange in regards to handguards for the enhanced set as well. Attached File I think for now out of the Sabre handguard line the only rail with out the indexing tabs might be the picittiny quad rail, but dont hold me to that. Without modification I think you are stuck using rails that dont have indexing tabs. I believe these rush of reciever sets without a ton of more parts support was to beat the Virginia and Rhode Island bans |

Well it took very little material removal to get a great fit. Had to move the pocket for the dust cover rod over a tad, but otherwise just had to take down some corners. Attached File Attached File Attached File Attached File |
