    How is the handguard attached to the rifle? Looks pretty sweet

    What stops the bush from rotating around the barrel ? Pin into front of action ? Can't figure that out from your photos.

    Hey Mate i'm still trying to figure out how you did this (Huge fan by the way) don't the AR rifles have a barrel thread that the bush screws onto and locks the barrel replacing the old barrel nut?
    Did you thread the receiver or barrel to fit the handguard bush?
    Or is the handguard bush clamped to the barrel then guard threaded on to the desired position then clamped?
