TxPo Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 I've got a DPMS Oracle 308 that I want to switch out the handguards. I was looking at the MagPul MOE's but MagPul says they won't fit (barrel nut size was what they said) but I've seen some posts that guys have said they put them on. Anybody done this? I've also looked at the Apex FFtubes but I really don't know if thier worth the cost. My rifle does double duty as a patrol rifle (wears an eotech) and sniper/hog hunting (Don't plan on anything over 200 yards). I need to get some rails to mount a flashlight and my ND3, but I'm don't really care for the full rail systems. So, what would ya'll recommend?
JGshooter Posted July 10, 2011 Report Posted July 10, 2011 Just did last night. I got One real cheap. And put it on my AR-10. Had to do some trimming because the space between the handguard collar and barrel nut is much smaller than a .223. I'm going to do a post with pics today.
NL7CO Posted July 10, 2011 Report Posted July 10, 2011 I put the MagPul Carbine Handguards on my DPMS. I was able to put the rail on the bottom, but not the top or sides due to the barrel.Don
JGshooter Posted July 11, 2011 Report Posted July 11, 2011 can see why, not much room in there.. I really do not think i am going to have much use for rails. If I do i will put on the full rail hand guard. For now I like the way these feel and look
