Difference Between NM Handguards?

I am sending an upper in to have the NM float tube installed. I need to pick which handguards I want.

What is the difference between the "thermomold" and the injection molded handguards that can be selected when buying the NM free float tube?

Which ones come on a premaid RRA NM rifle?

Thanks

Thermo-molded plastic is far more resistant to heating than regular injection molded polymer handguuards. That can be important with a steel tube around your barrel and no heat shields in the HG. We build our standard NM rifles and uppers with the thermo-molded HGs.

Thanks Steve. Thermomold it is.
