That’s my list of the best AR-15 handguards for your AR-15.

Learn from my fails…you get what you pay for in rails. I have a box of holsters and cheapo rails now that sit in the back of my shed. Picatinny rails are not mil-spec (stuff doesn’t fit onto them).Doesn’t align correctly to the upper receiver.Attachment system sucks (too heavy, too many screws, etc).The rails look great when they come in…but something has always been off: I’ve tried out a bunch of great deals I’ve found at gun shows and especially on Amazon and Ebay. Note…I don’t have any “cheap” rails on this list. Want the additional rail space? Go with the Troy Industries Quad Rail.

The STNGR VYPR is the handguard that recently bumped Aero off my Best Bang-For-The-Buck handguard list. To get a better grasp on the best length for you, check out our guide to choosing the proper handguard length. I personally like ~12″ handguards with 16″ barrels since I use the c-clamp grip. Plus, you can choose any handguard length if you have the right low-profile gas-block for it to go over. Your best bet if you are building your own AR-15 upper.įree-floating handguards give you an accuracy advantage since it doesn’t contact the barrel…so your hand position and extra gadgets such as bipods don’t affect barrel harmonics. BCM-15-MLOK-Rail Best Free-Floating Handguards It used to be personal preference but recently USSOCOM (US Special Operations Command) released their results of testing.Īnd M-LOK is the clear winner due to much better impact test results. One of the first decisions you’ll make is which attachment system…M-LOK or KeyMod.
