Hello All,
Been a member for some time but this is my first post. Lots of great information here. Hope to be able to contribute too as my knowledge increases. I installed a MI Gen2 fore end on my Del Ton DT Sport. It went in fine and seated perfectly at the  front. My concern is that the delta ring is not square with the receiver. It is right up against the fore end at the top rail but it is closer to the receiver at the bottom rail. Is there any cause for concern here?
Thanks.
Rick

Usually this is from the handguard not properly seating around the barrel nut.  With the delta ring depressed, does the bottom section of hanguard sit flush against the top?

Came here to say the same thing. My buddy had a Stag that had the same kind of issue. I just had to loosen up the set screw that held it in place and re seat it on the delta ring. Pics were certainly help though.

ETA: The rail was a factory add on from stag. Not an MI rail.

Hand guards are not seated / mated properly.

Wiggle the delta ring around a bit & pull back hard while pressing the lower rail toward the top rail until it seats. If the stop rail is square to the receiver then there is likely nothing wrong with the set-up.

Got it! Two more wiggles and she dropped in solid. The delta ring is all squared  up.
Thanks much.
