@OP: What you need depends on the RIS/RAS you're getting. Free floating RAS handguards usually come with their own collar or mounting system, so you don't need a delta ring nor the front cap. The CASV-EL handguards mount on a standard delta ring but don't require the front cap. Standard RIS, M5, RAS II, etc require both the delta ring and end cap.

Front sight or gas block (depending on the length of the rail and barrel), gas tube if you want it to look authentic, outer barrel, flash hider.

If you had a regular M4 (front wired) your battery may not fit in the new RIS handguard; you need to re-wire to the rear or make sure your wiring is long enough to reach your external battery case (AN/PEQ).

Thanks drake,

Yea, i already talked to huang, everything i need is in a box from him somewhere in the mail now

Also, its wired to a crane stock, so no worries about that

@ killbucket:

Drake pretty much hit the nail on the head, guns are considerable more expensive in canada then the states, so replacing parts that are import legal makes more sense.

Also, I am very fond of my gun, and have put many hundreds of dollars into internals for it.

THanks guys
