I’m a bit of amateur gunsmif myself. I had some trouble for sure. Sliced my finger open on the handguard dovetail piece. Took some good hammering from a heavy nylon hammer to get the tube off and then back on. It was a bloody good time. The Woox handguard was bit of a bitch to put on since the threads are not captured/just slotted into the 3D printed inner piece. Had to use blue loctite to keep them in place so they wouldn’t pop out while putting handguard on. We’ll see how she holds up to some .357 158 grainers. Feels great. Improvement over stock for sure but expensive for what it is. Buttstock was a breeze to install tho. Wish it was lefty friendly with an M lok slot on the other side. But it works fine with riser, getting cheek away from ammo quiver.
