Magpul,
Is the current basic handguard the same length as the prototype Masadas? reason i ask is i loved the 11.5 barreled Masadas look with basic handguards. Would like to build one someday, but i wanted to make sure the basics were the same length. Thanks

ETA: Something like this is what i had in mind:

Bump for answer on length of current ACR handguard vs Masada handguard length

No the proto ones are longer it looks like by about 2 inches - look at the gas regulator position - magpul says they will be making longer hand guards soon - which will look pretty mean with my 308 pws brake attached to the end of my 14inch barrel poking out the front

There are two different sizes, standard and rifle.  The rifle is not available yet and the standard handguard that is in production now is the same length as the prototype Masada standard.  There are pics out there of the prototype rifle length on the Masada.  Hope that helps.
