I would send them back looks cracked to me..
Krinkov Handgard Question (w/pic)
I picked up another set of Krink handgards and the lower HG is a little different and appears to be modified. The darker HG's on the right are stock and came w/my demilled kit. The lighter HG set on the left has part of the wood cut away on the lower part of the HG. Will this affect the fit or do i need to try and send these back?? If this area doesnt affect anything, why would someone have done this modification??

Well, i returned the handgards. I lost 22.00 total w/shipping both ways and the sellers gunbrokers fees. At the time, was happy to get any $ back. I posted an "F" for him and now in retaliation, he says I am the one who modified them. The funny thing is that he relisted them, stated they were still new, but sold them as is so he can dump them on the next guy. the new auction recently closed so the new buyer prob hasnt rec'd them or figured it out yet. I've had some great transactions online but I learned alot from this one...
If you care to read it abt this all from start to finish, start at the bottom and read up. Click on the feedback on me and him and read the comments. If you notice the times of the posts here w/ UNEDITED Posts vs. the emails to the seller. I truely had no idea what was different abt them until I asked abt them here. All i had tho compare them to was the other HG's from my recently purchased Demilled "KIT". I dont even have a completed rifle yet.

Yeah, I was just a little peeved at his retaliation. I have feedback on gunbroker that dates back to mar of 2002. He's sold alot more than me, but has only been on GB for less that 4 months, and I'm the bad guy....
The blond sets are out there as I located one in May for another demilled kit. It wasnt easy to find and that's why I didnt mind paying for the gunbroker set since it was sold as "new from KVAR". I wanted the 2nd blond set for my 2nd build(not even started yet).
