What brand is that handguard? I got the same one on my pistol upper from PSA, but not sure who makes it but I like it a lot.
Edit: was thinking the M lok logo was a handguard manufacturer logo... So i've got a similar handguard, but prob not the same one.

The upper is an aero Precision enhanced upper. The handguard as part of their proprietary handguard line. It is a 12-inch handguard. On a 16 inch barrel build, it makes the 308 rifle pretty light.

You won. I feel like I also won with this rifle. To say that there is no wobble between the receivers would be an understatement. This gun is sweet.

I'm not sure what it is but it seems the upper to lower fit on the 7.62 AR's seems better and more consistent than their smaller counterparts.

I'm curious if that's because of the uniformity across the AR-15 platform. Versus the fact that there is not a crazy amount of uniformity across the AR-10/LR 308 platform. Perhaps there is a little bit more room for error built into the smaller platform.

I built a 308 AR with an Aero upper and lower. The lower has one of those built in tension screws and I didn't even think to move it so it touched the upper as mine locks up pretty damn well as is.
