A: Most midlength FSBs fit without issue, but some with extended sling swivel ears may need minor filing to prevent contact with the handguard.
Q3: Is professional installation recommended?
A: Yes, we strongly advise gunsmith installation to avoid damage. Centurion Arms cannot warranty items affected by improper setup.
