AK-47 Lower Handguard help

[Chachie]

Hey guys.
(Still very new to this)

I have just received some new furniture for my rifle.

I have everything installed on the gun, but the lower handguard.

I am wondering if someone has a link to something regarding this, or some advice on going about putting the lower handguard on.

With the top handguard off, looking directly down onto the rifle, the only thing I see holding the lower handguard on is that catch( sorry for lack of terminology) where you would slide the handguard onto.

So from there, im not sure what to do Seems rather easy, just need to be pointed the right direction.

Thanks gang

There is a notch that slides into the bottom of the receiver under the front trunnion, and there is the front hand-guard retainer. All you need to do is remove the upper hand-guard and flip the latch on the lower hand-guard retainer. The new lower hand-guard may require some slight trimming to fit. Maybe you could post some pictures?
