Replacing Grooved Handguard Mark 4 "T"
I am about to replace the grooved handguard. I have not taken this rifle apart before. Is there something here I should read before starting? Thanks

Remove the centre band and lift the handguard from the front.

Just to add ..
Assuming a new old stock replacement is being fitted, before you colour and oil up the replacement,check fit it, you might find you need to remove a very small amount of material from the rebate, to allow it to fit comfortably under the ring.
Edit: Correction, remove a tiny amount, equally from the bottom if needed.

Grooved is what is on the rifle. It is a different color. I am ordering a plain version. Thanks PS you rebuilt the scope for this rifle. Joy to shoot. Cheers

The armourers didn't worry about colour when they fitted furniture.

With a split like than no wonder your turfing it.

What does turfing it mean? Oh I get it. Kicking it to the side. Not so much it looks bad but when I’m shooting and I grip with my left hand the little bugger squeaks. No big deal I suppose just wanted to fix it. Cheers

You could fit three biscuits across the crack and glue the whole lot just like the armourers would have done.
