💬 FAQ

Q: What’s the difference between free-float and drop-in handguards?
A: Free-float handguards attach to the barrel nut and don’t touch the barrel, which improves accuracy. Drop-in handguards are easier to install and work with standard delta ring assemblies.

Q: Should I go with M-LOK or Picatinny?
A: M-LOK is modern, modular, and lighter. Picatinny offers more mounting surface. M-LOK is ideal for clean builds; Picatinny is great for tactical gear-heavy setups.

Q: How do I choose the right handguard length?
A: Match your gas system:

• 7" for carbine

• 9–11" for mid-length

• 12–15”+ for rifle builds or extended setups

Q: Do I need special tools to install an handguard on my AR-15?
A: Drop-ins require basic tools. Free-float models may need a barrel nut wrench and vise block.

Q: Are your AR-15 handguards made in the USA?
A: Yes! We stock handguards from American brands known for top-tier manufacturing and tactical performance.
