I like how you machined the hand guard to give full access to the gas port. What kind of hand guard is it and do you have any regrets about machining it?

Thanks for the info

Can you show us a pic of the hand guard where you access the gas block? I have been interested in the YHM had guard and wondered how well it worked out with the tp555 adjustable block.
