Foxtrot Mike Products Ultra Light Free Float Handguard - M-LOK - Gen 2 - 8.5"

I give it 4 stars right out of the box. Great quality and craftsmanship. It’s very lightweight, which will work perfectly with my designated 22 build. Pleasantly surprised! This may be my go to handguard for all future budget builds.

I'm very pleased with this handguard. It's very lightweight, fit and finish are good too. Easy to install, and looks great. Of course I have some Gucci hanguards on other builds, but this is my new go to on budget builds.

Overall finish of the handguard itself is excellent, but rail size is off-spec. The rail is slightly narrower and lower than the rail on a mil-spec upper receiver. The handguard is needed to set timing to the receiver creating an awkward process for alignment. Additionally, there's play in the fit between the handguard and the barrel nut, so once you get the guard close to being lined up, you need to make sure it comes to the full extent of that play before tightening to help avoid it coming unaligned with use. Put the screws in loosely and use locktight on each one. Once aligned, alternate tightening the screws. They tell you that all you need is a box wrench to put the barrel nut on, not wise. Use a 1-1/4" crow’s foot with a torque wrench, tighten, back off and then tighten to torque. Two of the securing screw holes were crooked and required some tap correction to get them to sit correctly. Docking two stars for lack of QC and poor handguard to barrel nut fitment.

Such great value for the price!! The looks of it the usefulness of it go hand in hand with my review of it the barrel but was very easy to time and install all in all a great guard

Fits well, installs easy (view the video) and price was good. The finish is much lighter than the anodized black on my BCA and PSA uppers.
