You can slap a piece of rail onto the bottom hand guard and put a VFG on, but it won't be steady.

If you like to be able to switch the rail in and out I suggest getting the BASIC upper and a Daniel Defense Omega rail. The DD Omega is free floating and is a direct drop in no work involved, it's as easy to install as a pair of regular hand guards and much easier to take off. The price is also about the same when all is said and done. The difference is that you can take the rail off at anytime you want and move it to another upper when you decide to upgrade.

You can order it along with the upper or wait and order it later when you have more money. This gives you the flexibility to buy it all at once or one piece at a time. But again the best part is being able to keep it when you upgrade your upper to something else.

Notice I said WHEN you decide to upgrade, not if; the disease has got you now.
