Aero handguard
Unfortunately I was unable to install this handguard when I received it, the reason was it was missing the barrel nut & screws. But, the one thing that was somewhat good was after having several conversations with a rep. they were able to arrange with Aero to send me the missing items. Only time can tell because I still haven’t receive the items as of yet.
