The Midwest Industries Gen2 Carbine Length Drop-In 4-Rail Handguard for AR-15, Black is a handguard for AR Rifles.
Midwest Industries Carbine Length MI Gen2 Two Piece Drop-In-Handguard installs like factory plastic handguards. Midwest Industries is a proven leader in the firearm industry. Made in the USA, focusing on the small details to make your rifle platform better. The addition of their drop in handguard to your rifle platform creates the rail space you need to add your accessories. It has Gen2 design with four anti-rotation QD sockets for push button swivels. It is constructed from 6061 aluminum hard coat anodized and compatible with most gas piston systems.
A handguard protects your support hand from barrel heat and gives you room to mount lights, grips and other accessories. Check the length and fitting type against your rifle — drop-in handguards fit between the delta ring and handguard cap, while free-float handguards use their own barrel nut.
