Original Colt Handguards
Purchased a set of Reconditioned Grade A handguards (grade A was supposed to have no broken teeth) and the set I got was more like a grade B ( one or more broken teeth). The handguards were in good condition otherwise, but I’m a bit disappointed as the high price should warrant no broken teeth, I picked up a set of original fiberglass handguards in a gun shop a few weeks ago with only 1 broken tooth for 1/3 of the cost here.
