AR-15 A2 handguard
These handguards previously received a low rating and I'm not sure why. I took a chance and bought them and I found them to be better than I thought they would be. The finish is not perfect but neither are military surplus. The heat shields are full coverage and are well secured. They fit and function just fine... tight on the front endcap (these are for the triangular endcap only) and I had to tap the delta ring to seat the rear. These are what I expected and I am totally satisfied.

Mid legth handguards
These are nice mid length handguards they are tapered. However one issue i had when i bought them and tried to install using a round retainjng handguard cap it does not fit. Triangle cap is necessary. I am unsure if its the same with the rifle length handguards. I reached out to luth-ar for assistance and was directed to use the triangle cap. These seem sturdy and I would suggest them.
