Hey guys. After MULTIPLE AR builds, I'm now putting one together EXACTLY the way I want it. Every component will be carefully considered for use as my main 5.56 battle rifle. (Tentative parts list below.) But I have a question before I get started. I'm going to need to chop my FSB in order for a free float handguard to fit. All I have for this job is a hacksaw / Dremel. I'd also like to do it while it's still on the barrel. Is this a bad idea? And yes, I'd rather mod the existing FSB than buy a low profile gas block.
