Supporters Adolf Hamster Posted November 10, 2020 Supporters Share Posted November 10, 2020 it might take some filing but you should be able to get them to fit. the lower will be the tricky one, the upper bolts to the lower and should sit mostly free of the gas tube.

Gotcha, nice one mate. Good to know they would fit with a bit of work, will get to it sometime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lollingsgrad Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I've got a repro B11 on my CM.045. I had to shim the block that goes into the receiver as well as that retention plate thing that presses against the front of the lower handguard. Most notably though I had to Dremel the tops of the bits that slot into the front handguard retention thing. Not plug and play but about half an hour's work all in and there's no wobble at all. You might not be super happy with the results though because I found I had to decide between an unusually large gap between upper and lower handguard or the bottom of the lower handguard not lining up with the bottom of the receiver. I think the end result looks good but if you stare at it you'll notice the gap. I can't tell you if it's because I got a repro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took me ages to like up the screws for the upper handguard as the gas tube was making them out if line. It's all fit in tight which is nice it's not 100% straight but you can't tell unless your extremely close looking. I'm happy but it's was a right pain in the arse.
