I have one sitting on my bench next to my SCAR-L. Just waiting for the damn torque wrench to show up.

Looks good. How far past the gas block does it go? Will that work for a 13" barrel? Do you have FDE also? Price? What about keymod?

Any pics with a 14 it 14.5" barrel? You guys are knocking it out of the park these days.
ETA just realized this was a 17, my question was meant for a 16 |

Wheeler FAT wrench came in yesterday and the install went well. I like how everything fits and bolts up. My one complaint, and it's a small one, is the big head of the screw at 6 oclock in the barrel extension. It would have been nice for this one to be a countersunk head too, but I'm guessing the rail isn't thick enough for that. If that's the case, I'll take the thin rail and big screw head.
16" SCAR-L, MI SOCOM X, Bushnell 1-6.5 in a SAMSON DMR mount.

How much weight does this add over the factory handguard? Love the look of it!

Man thats a poor match on the FDE. No thanks.
Already too long. I just don't get the giant handguards on these. Was the factory handguard not enough space??? Do you have one of these that isn't ridiculously long? I do find the rail on my 16S is incredibly sharp and has lead to serious bleeding. |

The FDE comes very close to matching some of the 28 acceptable shades of FDE the rifle is made in. Notice the tango down grip on that rifle that is a widely used shade of FDE. Yes a majority of users on this rifle like to have extra room out front . Troy MI |

I thought this was common knowledge.
