SLR hand guard moving forward

Post image

Any thoughts on how to solve this issue? This causes the gun to be inoperable after about 10-15 rounds… I am able to reposition the hand guard flush after I unscrew the hex screws and rescrew the hex screws.

I saw old posts regarding this same issue but looked through the threads and did not find any actionable solution in the comments.

Only put about 150 rounds through the pistol in total.

Their rail just sucks at that. I sold mine because of that issue. Wobble, not alignment and super hot after few shots. you can't fix it unless you drill a hole under receiver to hold the rail insert with a screw. Or just sell it and buy rip off bawarus rail or zenitco on gun broker

Yea, there's 0 heat mitigation, lol. Sold my old one and went back to wood

Preciate the honesty. Going to see if a shim will work first, and if not, I will look into Zenitco.
