AR handguard question

(1/3) > >>

landon410:
quad rails are very popular and I have one on my rifle, however I don't want a quad rail, I'd prefer a birail, I only want the rail on top and botton with nothing on the sides, does anyone makes this?

I have a 2 piece drop in carbine length handguard, I don't want some super high end expensive handguard either.

tstuart34:
I would looking at getting a smooth or a keymod hand rail and then you can add rail sections to the bottom of it to attach what every you want. They will come with barrel nuts if you have to replace them. Once nice thing about the Troy and Sampson rails is you can use the stock barrel nut.

bkoenig:
I have both quad rails and tube type handguards.  IMO, quad rails suck.  They're not very ergonomic and they often weigh more.  I have a Samson Evolution and a Midwest Industries SS and I really like both of them.  They're light and modular.  The Samson is especially nice.  I think I got it for $130 on sale.

I'm thinking about maybe getting a Nordic free float for my next upper.  It's about $85, but doesn't come with the rail sections so in the end it will be about the same as a Samson.

I have YHM, Midwest Industries and ALG Defense. All are awesome. I think ALG is lightest and best deal. ALG is owned by Bill Geiselles wife, so you know its great stuff.

gsd:
Brian and Robert said it best. I've used Samson and Midwest Industries rails on just about everything. Only gripe I have with the Samson is the proprietary spacing for the rail sections. And they are TALL sections, I had to take a handstop apart to get it on.
