The Midwest Industries Combat Rail Handguard is a free float M-LOK upgrade for the AR-15, built from 6061-T6 aluminum and finished in black Type 3 hard coat anodizing for a durable, made-in-America handguard.
- Free float design for improved accuracy
- 6061-T6 aluminum, black hard coat anodized
- M-LOK slots on 7 sides
- Full-length Picatinny top rail
- Two anti-rotation QD sling sockets
- 6" overall length, 6.2 oz installed weight
Installation is straightforward: torque the included 4140 steel barrel nut, then slide the handguard over it and lock it down — no timing required. Indexing tabs key the handguard against the receiver to keep it from rotating under recoil, and the seven-sided M-LOK layout leaves room to mount lights, grips, and other accessories without adding the weight of a full-length Picatinny quad rail.
Every unit ships fully dehorned and deburred for a comfortable grip, and includes the barrel nut, wrench, and a 5-slot polymer M-LOK rail section for any spot that still needs a short Picatinny run.
Midwest Industries is a quality manufacturer of tactical weapons accessories, producing handguards, rails, and iron sights for the AR-15 and other popular platforms. Their goal is high-quality parts at an affordable price, backed by a lifetime warranty.

sturdy and slick rail
by Slenderman -
bought this rail for my latest build, very comfortable C-clamp, incredibly slim even for an M-LOK rail system. tons of spots for various attachments but be sure to keep it uncluttered, as when i added my IR laser i had to find optimal position to get good purchase on the weapon again, just because it is so slim but everything has its price. i love this rail. looks awesome. incredibly well machined.
45ACP / 9mm Builds
by Mike D -
Picked up two of these, for a 45ACP and 9mm PCC build. I like the Midwest handguards, fairly easy to install, comes with barrel nut, torque plate and wrench. The only issue is, if you use these on some billet upper receivers you may need to remove the tabs in the back. I had to remove both sets of tabs, in order to mate up with my FM proprietary handguards properly.
Great rail
by MT -
The 6" version leaves a bit of barrel outside the rail on a 7.5" barrel. These are great rails, solid, easy to install and no timing needed on the barrel nut.
