| I have a tapered midlength standard handguard (http://www.cavmfg.com/C8-Standard-Mid-Length-Handguard-C8.htm). Will the flashlight mount work on this or would I need the fat midlength standard handguard to make it work? (http://www.cavmfg.com/C6-Fat-Mid-Length-Hand-Guards-C6.htm) |
| You need a flat one, not tapered. There is not enough clearance between the gas tube and the inside of the tapered hand guard for the threaded backing plates to clear. |
