Description
At Ranger Point, we love to see good products work their way up from the mailroom to greatness. Even our legacy best sellers get regular attention from R&D to make sure they are the best they can be.
This year, we took a hard look at our best selling M-LOK handguards. Goal #1 was to streamline the manufacturing process, in part to better meet demand, and in part to reduce cost. But we wanted a better part at a better price.
The resulting Gen 2 Handguards have the same great aesthetic and robust functionality as our popular Gen 1 parts, but are built from a single, solid billet of aluminum. This allowed for an increase in rigidity, as well as a reduction in weight. It also opened the door to new features, like a cutout for the Henry mag tube loading port.
In the Package: one 13.25″ long M-LOK handguard, one barrel/mag tube tenon & two screws, four set screws.
Take a look at the full list of tweaks and features
- Machined from one piece of solid billet aluminum for increased rigidity and reduced weight;
- Full length 13.25″ oz length x 1.5″ oz width x ” 1.6″ oz height x 7.5 oz weight;
- Heavy duty tenon mount and screws hardware are provided increasing durability and load bearing capacity while ensuring easy installation (10″ from the receiver);
- Four mounting set screws afford rock solid bedding and eliminate lateral shift;
- Even easier DIY installation;
- Extra M-LOK slots on sides – now 24 slots total;
- Three Flush Cup holes for push button sling swivels;
