[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Changing a Forearm End Cap

Posted: 3/28/2010 12:42:44 PM EDT

I recently purchased a two piece handguard set from YHM, and I have to change my triangular end cap to a round one. At the latest fun show I bought the round end cap, but i need some destructions on how to swap out the unit. Any links to the necessary instructions? Thanks.

Remove the flash suppressor and front sight base. Then just replace the caps. What length barrel and is the muzzle device permanantly attached? You might run into problems if it is.

So its a standard front sight, how do I remove it? Knock out the two pins and slide it off? Thanks for the help.
