Recently I've been wanting to buy some gear for our military issued rifle here in Denmark. We use the C7A1 (and C8A2) by Colt Canada (Formerly Diemaco)

I got a mail from them today saying:
"Due to licensing issues, they are unable to ship outside of the US, I apologize for the inconvenience."

Finally found a company that ships to Denmark but now they're having licensing issues?!

There must be other brands out there, that ship to Denmark, and have quality gear for a good price.

I found the Polymer Handguard Set (Rifle) 4 sided Rail
http://www.commandarms.com/product.asp?pID=6&cID=8
And that was just what I was looking for, for my C7 rifle! Price is excellent too.

I've been browsing google for a while now, and it's all getting very confusing. I'm not sure if the standart handguard is 10inch or "Mid length" - The webshops use some confusing expressions. Basically I don't know what'll fit the C7.

Are there other alternatives to CAA out there?

Try FAB Defense from here:

Still reasonably cheap, and better quality than CAA.
Also, you don't have to deal with export laws coming out of the US.

EDIT: Also, C7 handguards are rifle length, in other words ~12 inches.

Yep, FAB have waay better quality products, at least as far as sturdiness goes. Their T-Pod is unbeatable, anyway, FAB is a good alternative.

Thanks munkey! I'll check out FAB, so far I can't seem to find any 12 inch handguards yet though.


Enduring Freedom - Danish forum? Sounds good, I'll give it a go.
