Hey, looking for a cool handguard for my son’s stock Colt 6920 with A2 front sight.
I am familiar with magpul, B5, and BCM polymer options. I’m more interested in something updated, alloy, thinish, with M-LOK…and somewhat affordable. Suggestions? |

Wraparound or no? Check out Midwest Industies.

+1 for MI. I've also not had any complaints about my Expo M-Lok rail.

I went with a Daniel Defense Omega on mine. It's drop in and also free float. This one is picatinny but they make an MLOK version as well.

The DD Omega is probably the best option, but it’s discontinued.
The KAC/P&S RAS is a more iconic option, but it’s also discontinued. Edit: Just saw you want Mlok. |

Not drop in, you do need to remove the delta ring and hand guard cap, but the MI two piece free float is nice.

With the A2 sight I’d need two piece. On my colt I have a DD quad that’s free float.

Valhalla Tactical has DD Omega mlok for $213. I ordered my picatinny one, and a couple Centurion rails, from them |

I believe the Omega is what I have on my 6920…cool but want something not so chunky. Appreciate the input from all! |

I did have to wait for it to get back into stock. |

May just get a polymer one as a place holder.

I have four Midwest rails. They are unbeatable.
