If it exists, you'd have to use a milspec type barrel nut, delta ring, and end cap arrangement, which I've never seen except on carbine length configs?

My PSA 10.5 inch upper came with GI style hand guards, so they are out there.
Maybe they sell them separate. |

I did this search on my latest pistol build not wanting to go full float and wanting a simple no frill build. Never found what you are looking for and as far as I can tell does not exist. I wound up going 10.5 inch on the build with a MOESL handguard.

Quote HistoryThat's pretty cool. I was just thinking of doing the same thing (chop job)
'looks like a fatty guard you got there. I'm going to try it with a slim set I have here. Did you cut it at the front or back end of the guard? |

That's an old picture. I did a slim set after that.
I made my cut on the back end both times. That seemed to work well |

I made my own also. I chopped dpms glacier guards and just wrapped them together with electrical tape. There was another thread about this a while back but I couldn't find it. I'm seriously serprised that nobody is making these. Model 1 sales sells a aluminum handguard, but I think you have to remove the front sight to put it on, it's not split as far as I can see.

I tried to get one of those model1 sales handguards awhile back and they were out of stock with no idea when they would ever get more.
I bought a very similar one from Tonys customs, but it doesn't use the delta ring or handguard cap, its all one piece.
