I bought a FAB Defense handguard set for my cz-858 but can't figure out how to remove the old resin handguard off the metal portion. Does the metal portion come apart in some way?

OK, thanks guys. I bent both of the tabs and rotated the resin part and it came off. I reversed the process to install the new part. It looks like I have to install it along with the lower. It won't go back on the rifle with the original lower guard in place. I will try that tomorrow. It is getting late and I am assuming the pin that holds the lower in place will take a bit of bashing. I think I will use a part that came with the cleaning kit to get the pin out. The part is sharped like a Allen key but has a point like an ice pick. Is this what you guys used to remove the pin for the lower? Thanks again for your help.

The best thing you can do is call - 905-888-8288, ext: 4 ask for Darren and target sports will ship you out a set of NEA hand guards.

I used a punch to get the pin out to remove the lower handguard. Comes out pretty slick.

I just replaced the lower handguard. Removing the pin was easy. I used the "Allen key" shaped part that came with the cleaning kit. It worked so well that I think that is what it is designed for.
