BROWNELLS - BRN-10 Portugese Mid-Length Handguard, No Heat Shield, Blk

Great for the price, worked perfectly for a .22LR AR15 build. Lack of heatshields is a nonissue w/22

I used these handguards on a BRN10 carbine build using the 16in barrel. With a little creativity, you can paint them to resemble the original Armalite furniture. They are unlined, so watch those mags dumps.

I've purchased 2 of these for a couple of .308 AR's I have. Both installed without issue. However, both firearms have the round front handguard retainer. I don't know if they will work with the triangular retainer. They seem to be well made out of a relatively thick plastic. I'll have to see if the lack of heat shield causes problems.

I used this on a retro build a few days ago. There has been some question to whether this will fit on the AR-15. It does fit very nicely on an AR-15 midlength gas system barrel with the delta ring and round front cap. I did have to file in two small divots to match the round guard cap which was very easy work and then it snapped right in place. I would however recommend using a delta ring tool to install as the fit is very tight and required an authoritative smack with the palm to seat. My pic included shows a faux bakelite finish that I applied

Just like the title, nice quality, but I guess they are a custom fit thing. Will NOT work with a original Portuguese AR10, bit to long. I really don't know what they would drop into, but might find a use for them someday. Again, nice build quality on them though.
