How would I go about mounting a few small rails on this handguard being there are no holes for mounting or should I buy another one for this reason.  I want to mount a bipod and light.  There are oblong holes near the end.  Thanks I am new to this.

Your handguard should have vent holes on the top and bottom. If so, take a look at Falcon Industries picatinny rail sections. I picked up one of their 2" rails from Midway USA to fit on my carbine handguards along with an VLTOR offset flashlight mount. Works great.

I also got a KNS front sling swivel mount to fit on the bottom handguard. This also works well for me and I can quickly mount a Harris bipod or other stud-mounted accessory.

Can I ask why you want to use ur NM rifle as an entry gun?  I would just invest in a carbine build if thats what your looking for.  Just my 2 cents.  Chris

I wanst planning on that.  I am planning on using it for a target and varmint gun.  I want to build a short barrel for defense.

+1 use the Falcon Ind. Bolt on Rails if you wanna use your stock HG's and add just the basics, I wouldn't go crazy with the add on though. Maybe just a bi-pod and sling adapter for 20" Rifle and an offset FL mount and Vertical Grip on a Carbine. Anything much more than this and I suggest getting railed guards or at least a MOE.
