Hey guys, so I just recently bought my first AR, a Daniel Defense carbine...nothing fancy. I want to buy a new handguard with some space for a foregrip/light for it and eventually an optic...came across this YHM Specter.
From what I read on other posts, YHM isnt the best FF rail, but it isnt the worst either...I'm also gathering that the Specter rail will fit on a Carbine length rifle, right? However since its a few inches longer than a Carbine length (9.7" versus 7.2"), will it just go past the forward sight? This is taken right from the YHM site:
"The Specter forearm is designed to cover the gas block on a CARBINE length gas system"
Sorry for the dumb questions, still learning all the various parts and their names...
Will I need to order any special tools with it to install it, since it is FF?
Thanks guys!
