Has anybody ever bought or used one of these. I'm really thinking about getting one and I'm trying to see if anybody has any experience with them.https://www.dsarms.com/p-16255-dsa-ar15-16-chrome-lined-barrel-w-geissele-mk8-fde-13-handguard.aspx

My only gripe with those is that the upper has lightening cuts in the middle of the rail. I suppose it is not as big of a deal since Geissele now puts the same cuts on the SMR

Don't some of the QD optic mounts recommend against using on uppers like that?

If the mount doesn't use a full width recoil lug (Larue and Bobro come to mind) you will damage it.  Mounts with cross bolts (ADM, Geissele, etc) will be fine.


The Mil-spec doesn't allow for an interrupted rail I don't think does it?

Here is an example.

Those are MLOK mounting slots.

I think they are a fantastic deal and the cuts keep a smooth and even flow thru the rail.  I want to purchase one myself and I already have 3 G rail'd uppers...........
