    Hand Guard Metal

    There are a lot of new handguards without the metal. Can the metal be purchased?

    Not that I know of. You'll need the sheet metal and the rivets. Maybe someone can post a drawing so a correct part can be fabricated.

    And the special rivet setting tool (note the set in the lower jaw). The tubular ended rivets minimized wood splits.


    (This set-up wouldn't work "as-is". You would need either a small diameter top set for the rivet head, or a custom built hand tool.
