AR-15/M16 STAR SERIES FREE-FLOAT FOREND
Puts Plenty Of Secure Accessory-Mounting Space Up Front
The STAR (Samson Tactical Accessory Rail) forend system puts MIL-STD 1913 rails up front to provide plenty of space for mounting lights, lasers, optics, vertical grips, bipods, quick-detach sling swivels, and other accessories. White, etched alpha-numeric slot markings help you make sure accessories get reinstalled in the right locations after temporary removal. Large, S-shaped vent slots ensure plenty of airflow to keep barrel and forend cool, even during sustained fire. Two-piece design easily replaces factory handguards without removing front sight/gas block. Precision machined from 6061 T6 aluminum alloy; hardcoat anodized for extra strength with a wear-resistant, non-reflective, matte black finish. Clamps to the barrel nut with four, steel, hex-head cap screws to provide a solid accessory mounting platform without putting stress on the barrel that can compromise accuracy. Top rail is same height as receiver rail to provide a long, uninterrupted expanse of mounting space, so optics can be positioned for best eye relief. Bottom rail can be removed to allow mounting of M203 grenade launcher. Anti-rotation tabs on the clamp prevent unwanted movement. STAR-MX provides extended rail area on rifles with carbine- or mid-length gas systems and a low-profile gas block.
SPECS: Mid-Length – 10" (25.4cm) OAL. Fits rifle with mid-length gas system. Requires low-profile gas bock.
