I've recently got an Ishapore 2A1 and am very happy with it - apart from one small problem. When I fire it (using 1990s Radway Green) the rear handguard pops off, enough to force up the rear site an inch or so.

I've looked at how it attaches and I note that the rear clip seems to grip the barrel just where it begins to flare. I was wondering whether I should sand a bit of wood off the front, so it'll sit further forward, but wanted to check with the knowledgeable folks here before taking such an irreversible step.

Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
