I know that people HAVE done it, but I personally haven't. I've been looking into the same thing, though, and was hoping that someone who has done it would post some pictures of how much they had to dremel, and what the inside of the MI handguard looks like (because I haven't bought one yet).
Thanks |

I installed a MI handguard on a 20" 5.45 which has the same heavy barrel diameter as the .308 of .670-.690 inches and did not need to modify it in any way. The V clamp is meant to accept many barrel diameters. If you use a MI handguard you don't need a handguard retainer either. I personally use the saiga handguard on my Saigas, which is a little longer to hide the slots for the handguard retainer.
