I got this stock set from k-var:
http://www.k-var.com/product.asp?0=270&1=271&3=92

And I'm trying to get the upper handguard reassembled but just can't do it.
Can anyone tell me how to get this to fit correctly? Lemme know what I'm doing wrong? It just won't even out.
Thanks!
EDIT: My gun is a Wasr-10

Looks like you have the handguard upside down.

You just have to twist the plastic handguard into the gas tube channel so that it is seated right side up.

This is not always easy to do. Check this site for reverse-removal directions:

CAREFULL not to crush the gas tube if you use anything like channel grips. A leather belt or a military issue sling works great.

Yeah, I've been using good o'l linx's guide to take the darn thing off in the first place. he
I don't see why, as it turns just fine on my wood grip.

have you tried a wrench? just use a wrench on the end that will accept it... then get a good grip on the plastic part maybe with a sheet of rubber or some gloves then push it in as hard as far as you can then twist ... that worked for me

Yeah, I got it on there with some tough love, thanks. HowIt won't go in the receiver.

It is time to pull out the Dremel tool and sandpaper to make the tang that goes into the receiver the same size as the one on the wood handguard.

Thanks again for the help everyone! One last question: Does it look right?
I couldn't get the stock to go any further, but its secure. The grips are a little misaligned, but it works right?

I put the K-Var OD green (U.S.) on a WSAR-10. It was a tight fit, but worked great. I did have to slam the but stock to get it to slide up in the receiver, but it went in and looks good.
