This is for an AR build.
I have a couple sets of Cavalry Arms handguards, one carbine length in DeWalt yellow, and one rifle length in (almost) Barney purple. Don't mock my color choices!
Anyway, I thought all the modern stuff would work with a round endcap, so that's what I bought.
But... it appears that the carbine ones work with the round, and the rifle length ones don't. Or maybe I don't know how they're supposed to fit.
Yellow carbine length fits just fine:
But purple rifle length... either doesn't fit, or fits funny:
I can get the endcap to fit, but it's either offset up, or offset down.
Do I need a triangular endcap for this to work right?
I have a different rifle with a round endcap and round guards (actually round, not oval like these) and there's some weird cutouts on the end of the guard so it'll fit either round or triangular endcaps.
What's the "right answer" here?
