Hey all,
I bought a rifle today and it has a handguard that i'm trying to get off and have no idea how and need some help. Below is a picture of it and the rifle! Any advice would be awesome!

Take the upper off before you go to remove the handguard and put it in a vice using an upper vice block. Most free float handguards have at least one set screw somewhere. In the case of that rifle, the set screw has probably been coated with the paint job. There should be some indentation though for any set screws. Once you have them out you'll be able to simply unscrew the handguard off the barrel nut.
Don't hav a clue though as to how you're going to strip that dip from the upper and lower receivers. The stock isn't a problem, you can simply replace it. Certainly not a bad deal for $650 with the Eotech so it's worth whatever work you do to it. |
srsly.

What are the rest of the details on the rifle? He probably got a hard time from the boys at the local range

The price was too good to pass up even if it has a ugly hydrodip. It came with eotech for $650 What are the rest of the details on the rifle? He probably got a hard time from the boys at the local range
Wow. CMMG lower with a MOE+ grip, KAC trigger guard, Troy assist lever and a custom upper with a Thor 1:8 barrel, PWS fcs556, and a HPI/MPI bcg. Looks to be a very low round count rifle too. Also the EOTech EXPS2-0 was included all for $650 |

Interesting looking stick....would be interested to know more about the eotech might just be the low res pic but something just looks off. Then again it could be the snakeskin throwing my eyes out. Nice pic up op The consensus was it is legit and after using it and playing with it, it is a real eotech. http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_3_18/654334_Is_this_eoTech_legit_.html |
