LOL... just realized about that. Sorry, we don't have a BATFE here or anything similar so it slipped my mind to add those items when I took the pic.

Sorry if these questions are really obvious, I'm just getting ready to build myself an AR and I've always liked the looks of the old style handgaurds better than the new rounded ones. Is there any advantage or disadvantage to the old ones?
Found some for $8 in very good condition. You will need a triagular handguard cap to fit them on a modern AR
