Today’s video goes over the steps one needs to remove an AR-15’s (SW MP 15 sport 2) handguard ****without using the special tool called a handguard removal tool****, so you can install an aftermarket set if you would like, or clean underneath it.

Preciate it man
Okay now put them back on. I can't get mine
Literally have the same rifle I’m replacing, my moms budget rifle. Upgrading her handguard so she can actually purchase the rifle properly. Appreciate the quick and easy tutorial!
I use the grip end a pair of pliers. It gets the handguard off surprisingly easy.
Are you shitting me really
I can see me freaking out not being able to get it back together. Gonna have to use my smith for this won’t even try to say otherwise. Honest Abe here.
Thanks!
this is creepy af.
Does anyone make an aluminum clamshell for a replacement?
Swearing helps the process along.
Thank you. I just ordered my magpul foregrip and didn't want to spend $15 on a tool I would only use once. 😅
Yep those delta rings are stubborn and they can be done without tools . Also you don’t have to be in the closet about loving ar15s, this is still America for Christ sakes !!!
Why are you in a closet?
This is a terrible video. Removing D-Rings from the Delta isn't a big problem, the re-install is much harder. Convenient that you skipped installing haha.
Fun fact: the muscles that move your fingers are actually in your forearms, which is (part of) why wrist injuries are so troublesome.
I wished someone could tell me how to remove a Vietnam era handguard without a tool.
Did this on a Colt and it was tough. Never thought of the gloves.
Heard good and bad about the Delta ring tool so I figured I'd do it by hand.
If the weapon is not loaded why did you put it on safety
I was struggling for a whilee and I eventually Wrapped a wire thru the hole on the hand guard near the base of it, and than Pulled the D-ring down and pulled the wire that was SO much easier and I got it my first try with the wire.
What’s that optic?
No slip gloves are a gamechanger
Out of curiosity, would anyone decide to keep the default handguard, it seems it would let in less water or rain? Or general debris or mud? Yes the modern ones have rails, and can add stuff but I am wondering if, the standard handguard has some benefits at all?
Man! Thank you sooo much!!!! Quick question I just bought the psa 10.5 ar and I want to change the handguard, my question is how do I know which handguard is gonna fit?
Great video, thx for sharing!
Awesome video. thanks for the detail about this. need to do this with my Ar-15
