Let me first say I love this rifle. It is a well balance easy handling bare bones 5.56 rifle that was suprisingly lite feeling rifle. I was expecting more in the line of my BCL 102 which weight is somewhat high.

Anyway I was trying to mount a forward hand grip with built in bipod using the elongated holes that are advertised as M-Loc. The issue was that it did not have an over sized hole and the end of each elongated hole similar to most picture hungers that allow the head of the screw by and you slide it down to the narrow end to enclose or trap the head of said screw. So I tried to use the narrow strait edges that are supposed to slot in and when turned won’t come out when tightened. But the nut includded in multiple add on mounts I own would not fit through. The only way to mount the handle now is to remove my scope, take apart the hand guards and screw in from the back holding the nut. Has anyone else found this issue? Is it the m-lock hole that’s to small or the handles that are probable cheep Chinese junk having non compliant m-lock nuts
 
Cheap Chinese junk. The M-Lok nut is a cammed t-nut, and doesn’t require and enlarged hole at the front. Ditch the garbage and buy real product.

A proper nut for reference:

You have Keymod and M-Lok confused in regards to the slot having a larger hole. M-Lok is a simple slot and T-nut. It is superior in every way to Keymod.

Most likely your grip bipod combo is cheap Chinese junk using out of spec 1/4 turn t-nuts. In fact, by the simple fact of it being a grip and bipod combo, I'd bet the farm it's out of spec Chinese junk.
 
Well thanks for the replies. First I did what no man should. I looked up how to use the screws. The 90Deg turn to lock it in didn’t engage because of me missing the sweet spot and over torqued. I had to bite the bullet and used youtube.
