Osprey piston w/freefloat handguard
What free float hand guards are you guys using with your osprey piston systems?
I was planning on using the spikes BAR, but has anybody tried a JP or Lancer hand guard? I would really like the ability to only put rail sections where I need them, and have the rest of the hand guard clean!
Can't see it working with a JP rail-
i use one of the midwest ind frf tubes had to mod the barrel nut some
I was thinking the JP LE hand guard.
I think that the BAR rail is gonna end up being too bulky
I have the bar on my 7.62x39 upper with osprey kit, great clearance.

+1 I use a Spikes BAR on my 10.5" 5.56 upper with an Osprey kit and it runs great.
+1 bar... 12" with ops 416
I ordered the JP LE handguard, gonna see if it will fit. Should be here soon
The Ospreys come with a set of gigantic handguards so I don't imagine many others will work unless they're the same size. I cannot fit an ARMS rail over the handguards on my handled M4 Carbine with the Osprey handguards mounted. Had to grind the top of the handguards off.

It appears that the JP LE handguard will fit, but I havn't actually had time to insall it yet!
Ok, so I test fit the jp LE-M handguard, everything does clear. But being that the jp tube threads onto the barrel nut, I am gonna have to get everything in place and then pin the gas block.
