does anyone make repro handguards that look EXACTLY like the originals? With the shiny gloss and all. or at least super close to it?

>>64171673Why didn't you google this yourself? https://www.gunpartscorp.com/products/552440bAnyway, they're like 25 bucks on numrich for both sides. The best deal you'll find. That's where I got mine, and they were pretty dirty, and were worn, bent sling swivel, and slight damage to the thin part of the hand guards where the vents are molded, but solid. It adds character anyway.

>>64171590As others pointed out, surplus GI parts are your best bet. Hell they're actually easier to find than the repros from Out-of-Stocknells
No, nobody makes that. Buy a set of Luth/JSE handguards, rubber band them together and go at them with a belt sander until the texture is removed largely. Get some autobody bondo and a shit ton of sandpaper and get them perfectly smooth. Glazing putty all over. Sand again down to 2000grit. Spraypaint them with gloss black fence paint. Then follow up with clearcoat. Polish until desired effect is achieved.Don't want to do all this? Buy surplus
