Todd. How much closer are you to getting the large I.D. handguards ready for production. So I can put a suppressor under one of your awsome hand guards. Thanx.

We have a few neat things coming. Of course we are moving the machine shop to a new location next month and also bringing 2-3 more verticals on line so everything take way too long from concept to production. Thanks! Todd |

That sounds great! I've purchased 3 hand guards from you and am totally happy. I would like a larger ID for my next build for suppressor use.

I will be in for one of these. I had to get a rainier arms force rail for my Syrac piston set up. I originally had one of yours! Thanks for letting me return it! |

Hey Todd, I'm building a varmint rifle was wondering if your Solo series 16.5" would be compatible with a barrel OD of 1.04" at the widest point and a low profile 0.936 gas block?
This is the one I want to use for this build: 16.5" SOLO SERIES KEYMOD HANDGUARD Product Code: 16KM-SOLO http://slrrifleworks.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=66_106_69&product_id=115 Thanks! Mike |

I now have one on my 8" 300 blk SBR, just got one for my 10.5
I have one on my 300 and 223 SBRs and just ordered one for my Core30 308. The best handguards I have ever used. If you like the handguards and want a perfect smooth shooting rifle, get set up with one of his adjustable gas blocks. Both my SBRs run them and work with and without my suppressor. Thanks Todd! ' |

Todd,
I'm building a suppressed, 8.5" barreled SBR and would like to use one of your 8" Solo's. If the Solo is exactly 8", as stated previously in this thread, I believe it will be just a little bit too long to install the silencer. I'm currently waiting on the form 1 and 4 approvals so I don't have the parts available to make exact measurements. However, using the barrel dimensions I obtained from Noveske, it looks like it will be about 3/16" too long. I know I could use the 7" but it would leave a large gap between the rail and silencer. I want to minimize that gap as much as possible. Do you have any plans to release a 7.8"(ish) version for folks with 8.5" barrels? If not, would it be possible to shave ~0.2" off the end of the Solo without reaching the first vent holes? |

I wanted the same set up as you, 8.5 barrel and 8 inch Solo Lite handguard. I actually just asked Todd for exact measurements on a couple Solo Lite handguard lengths to see if it would work and here's what he replied: 7" is 7-1/4" 8" is 8-3/16" 9"is 9-1/4" 11" is 11" *** EDIT TO CLARIFY: the above measurements were provided in reference to the M-LOK Solo Lite handguards. The 8 inch KEYMOD Solo Lite is advertised as exactly 8 inches on the SLR website. *** I just bought the 8 inch M-Lok Solo Lite during this weekends sale and decided to cut down a longer barrel (and resize the gas port a bit) to get a close for with my can. |

What's the weight on this one?
http://slrrifleworks.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=66_106_70&product_id=397 the 10" version says 8.2oz.... |

Is this an entirely new way to secure the rail or can these parts be procured and fitted to my existing SLR rail replacing the older style?
|

Entirely new. Barrel nut is longer and mount is different, other than that the rail is the same from what I have seen them say.

Why the change? View Quote It's the 4th gen. They are always trying to make their products better. I have had two gen 1 rails that are rock solid. I wouldn't worry about the different generations. However, I will say the newer gen rails are lighter than my gen 1 with steel barrel nut. |
