With complaints of 4 rail hand guard being to heavy I think Magpul should make a polymer 4 rail hand guard.
I'd buy one. How many of you guys would?

heh? daniel defense makes some very light handguards that rival the weight of polymer/plastic ones. once you factor in the barrel nut and delta ring and front end cap for the MOE and the MOE itself it will be near the weight of a complete daniel defense lite or M4 rail that are the same length. maybe a couple ounces lighter but not more. and with the DD rails you get free float and much more sturdiness.

so I'm sure a polymer railed handguard would weigh even more than the MOE.

don't do it for the weight. maybe the price but not the weight.

They pretty much already have that.

pass. MOE is cheap and effective. Daniel defense is lightweight.

Troy drop-ins are pretty darn light, as well.
