Fred, check around for a handguard clip with the two rivets as I do not think they were manufactured without the clip to hold it to the barrel. You should be able to find something close.

Can not tell from your muzzle photos but there is a special stacking swivel that is unique to the rod bayonet rifles onlyAttachment 54840Attachment 54838Attachment 54839

Bottom right stacking swivel is for the rod bayonet rifle

I sure do thank you for the pictures! I guess that I'll have to modify a regular stacking swivel with a file. What I'm also really looking for as well is a solid rear band without the split in it. I've got something really neat that I'd trade for one of those as I can't make one myself without messing around with a wire welder. Or, I could come up with whatever cash the owner wanted for it. I'm going to search around for somebody who is making those hand guards properly. Many thanks for you assistance and input!!!
