- Drop in handgaurd replacement on an ar15 rifle that you can do at home! save some money and do it yourself. This video shows the removal of the original A2 style fore end on this DPMS gun. I installed the NCstar VISM keymod drop-in rail. The rail is very lightweight, and offers alot over the stock configuration.

You are the first one to mention lock tight (blue). 😂 Perfect!!!!
Handguard Removal Starts at 02:50
If no one knows this handguard is designed to go over a. Ar 15 with an a2 sight on it. That's what the top gap is for. I had this on my ar. I recently got a stngr handguard and it came with a gas block. I pulled the a2 sight and replaced it with the new gasblock. Perfect upgrade to free float handguard. I recommend it. Replaced it for 160. This particular hand guard could be found for between 70-160. If your on a budget it's a good option. Very sturdy.
I was wondering about that and can't seem to find one other than another plastic Magpul drop in or a heavier quad rail. Doing my homework ATM for my sport 2 as I'm in the process of adding furniture to it. This 13in rail doesn't look bad though, also your thumb can go in that gap...it's about what I'm thinking if I do get this one
See I just bought a slandered quad without the opening 😂 like shit now I gotta take the front rail off.. iam confused but learning lol
Thanks for the video I have the Anderson Manufacturing AM15 and just got this hand guard off of optics planet for 80. Can’t wait to install it. Again thanks for the video
Great job dude!
Awesome work. Thank you
That's what I needed to see thank you so much
The spring loaded barrel shroud locking ring on M4 and M16 style AR, actually seems allot quicker and more convenient for changing out the hands guards or barrel shroud. I was going to get an M4 style upper, but figured it'd be pointless if in going to change out the furniture anyways. An it seems like they're might not be quite as many options available for that design. An then I also kind of like the fixed front sight, but only if I'm going to leave it in that original M4 looking design, otherwise it's kind just in the way. At the same time the way some of these barrel shrouds have an opening on top to allow the sight to stick still. Looks pretty cool as well.
I’m looking for one of these to put on a Chiappa M4 AR 22 LR , love the look plus it’s got rail mounts , have you got a site we’re to get one .
Hey man what length is them handguards. Thinking about doing this to mine
Would that guard fit the 7.62 barrel with a gas block too?
do you have a link for the product?
Looks good, I like the idea. I've only swapped for carbine length drop-in quad rails in my limited handguard changing experience... I got the handguard removal tool for $8 or $9 so for me it's well worth it.
The tool is definitely worth it Mike... haha. Doing it by hand was a little more difficult than I remembered. I cut out a few minutes....
Good video, i havs a dpms and wasn't sure what i needed for a hand guard for mine...
In your case with the low profile gas block what did you put in the rail space after the install , was thinking some Magpul mbus sights but then the space is still there or a high profile A2 detachable front sight for the offset
Very instructive video.
Cool 🔥💪🇺🇸
Hey bro thanks for the video do you know if this hand guard will work on most ar ? I have a core NATO sport and am looking to change out my basic ass hang guard . Thanks
What is the manufacturers recommended torque specification for handguard screws? Could the manufacturers recommended torque specification for handguard screws be different from one manufacturer to another? Thanks
Do you have a link I know it's been a few years but having trouble finding that model
My at pic rail has block is about half the size. I kind of don’t like the big gap it leaves (where the A2 should be). For ease of swap though it’s tempting
Is this a carbine length gas system?
how wide is this handguard?
The utg Handguard is under a hundred, very easy to install. Always get an ar with iron sights.
Do you have a video on installing a free float hang guard?? I believe I’ll have to change the gas lock, and I’ve heard a yes/ no on if I’d have to change out the barrel
A Z I don't have a video on that specifically, but it's covered a little in various parts of some other videos. What gas block do you have? Maybe I can do a video on it this week!
GunsWithGage I have a m&p AR15 sport 2. All stock. Haven’t done anything to it. I haven’t even shot it lol. So, I have the original gas lock. But I seen in another video that the guy changes out the gas lock.
A Z yup, you will need to remove the gas block/front sight on that rifle in order to use a free floating handgaurd. I have a few of those rifles, I may do a video on it for you this week
GunsWithGage awesome man. And by any chance do you know the sizing of the lock that I’ll need? I don’t think all barrels are the same??
How about midlength they have it?
Where do I buy this attachment at??
I’ve seen it done without the vise
My AR doesn't have a delta ring. Will this handguard work then ?
No
You could have left a link for the product that you're installing. You can make money that way you know
get the slip ring tool a whole lot easier
Is that the 15in or 13in?
Gabe Ague this one is the 13inch model
GunsWithGage Ok thanks
Love it, sad is, they dont make it anymore, looked it up.
Why does everyone want to take that style hand guard off
Cause its a vey cheap and budget guard , bad ergonomics and no heatshield for dissipation, plus the plastics are ribbed and fill in the inside.
You can’t even mount a handstop on that Gaurd
I’ve seen someone add mlok segments to the stock hand guard
So does it improve your groups 🙄
Barrel harmonics, the drop in touches the barrel while free float doesn’t and allows the vibrations of the barrel to act more naturally
Why didn't you simply use.the special handgrip tool. It would have been much easier than watching you struggle while trying to tell us how easy the process is. It also would have at least made it look like you knew what you were doing.
If you’re not man enough to pop the guard off with your hands maybe you shouldn’t be modifying your rifle. Keep your nails clean and buy complete builds soy boy
Never did any modifications and was wondering will this handguard work with the Ruger 556
How do you misspell a 3rd grade word multiple times??
