AR-15 9" Omega Rail M-Lok Black
light weight, solid lockup and easy install. no complaints.

Excellent upgrade for your rifle
I'm impressed with this handguard so far. Easy install. Hasn't moved. Made in America. Accuracy has improved with the free float. The handguards have anti rotation tabs machined in that straddle the upper receiver just in case. The forend doesn't weigh a whole lot. Surprising that the instructions say to cut off the delta ring. I would think Brownells would use this as an opportunity to sell a couple extra AR15 tools like an inexpensive armorer's tool, vise, and a spanner wrench or a couple punches. You know, things we should all have anyway and allow you to save the parts.

Excellent value
Easy to install and works. But why cut your delta ring? Do it right and remove the bbl. It's not hard, you'll have spare parts and won't risk scratching your upper.

Solid
I've had this on my BCM mid length for over 5 years. I've even removed it and reinstalled it a couple times and it's been rock solid the whole time. The rail ends about 1 mm short of the handguard end cap (if you have a2 sight post installed), which is perfect. This is the best drop in, free float quad rail I've used.

Great Product
Great product at a great product. Install was a snap, and it feels rock solid on my Adams Arms upper!!
