I have a February 2024 manufacture Big Boy X in 44. I just received the Costa Root Beer set for my rifle. When I opened the box there was a note saying their hang guard won’t work with Henry’s made in 2024 due to a change in the receiver called “teeth” and the note says to return the handguard as it won’t work. Has anyone found a way to made this fit?

If true guess I’m ordering another MI, I was going to order a RPP to compare.

I talked to them today and they are changing the programming for future hand guards. I could see where the teeth were hitting the handguard so I removed that material and then it installed just fine and you can’t see my modification. I’m really happy with the product and I like the Root Beer color.

I installed a RPP handguard on my 2024 Henry Big Boy X last month. I ran into the teeth on the receiver issue where the RPP Handguard would not sit flush. I went through a lot of effort to get the factory handguard and trunnion off and there was no way I was going to put myself through it again. So I pushed the RPP handguard down into the receiver as far as it would go. Then I took a rubber mallet and pounded on it until it made slots in the handguard and was flush with the receiver. The parts are mated perfectly and the HG is very secure.  It wasn’t that hard to do and I would not have reservations about doing it again.
