Geissele Automatics MK16 Free Float AR-15 Handguard - M-LOK - 13.5"

The Geissele MK16 Super Modular Handguard solves the durability demands of hard-use AR-15 builds with a rail proven on the URG-I program and adopted by USASOC. Built for shooters who want the same rail riding on issued special-operations carbines, this 13.5" version pairs an extended barrel nut with seven sides of M-LOK for maximum rigidity and accessory space.

Features:

• 13.5" length
• Adopted by USASOC for the URG-I program
• Extended-length Geissele barrel nut
• Anti-rotation tabs and set screws
• Picatinny top rail with 7 sides of M-LOK
• 7000-series aluminum construction
• DDC Type III hardcoat anodize
• Does not include barrel nut wrench

The extended Geissele barrel nut provides more surface area than standard designs for superior rigidity, while anti-rotation tabs and set screws keep the rail from rotating under any circumstance. Its combat pedigree comes from adoption on the URG-I program, giving civilian shooters access to the same rail carried on issued special-operations carbines. Note: Geissele's Desert Dirt Color (DDC) finish refers to a variety of shades of desert terrain designed to better break up a rifle's outline. These colors can vary drastically even between products from the same batch and are not intended to color match. Per Geissele Automatics, the only way to receive a uniform color across all parts and accessories is to have them refinished with a coating such as DuraCoat or Cerakote.

Founded in 2004 by Bill Geissele in Pennsylvania, Geissele Automatics built its reputation on precision AR-15 triggers before expanding into rail systems and other combat-proven components. The company's Super Modular Rail line has been adopted by U.S. Special Operations Command, reflecting the same engineering rigor Geissele applies across its entire product line.
