(Cincinnati, OH) – Faxon Firearms, manufacturers of the ARAK platform rifle system, is pleased to announce the release and shipment to dealers of its STREAMLINE series of handguards.

True to their namesake, the new Streamline handguards are a sleek and low-profile solution for those looking for a slimmer handguard with flexible mounting. Further, the Streamline features an uninterrupted MIL-STD 1913 “Picatinny” rail across the top and 7 facets of M-LOK cuts at the 90 and 45-degree facets. Rail slots are directly engraved with “T” marks during machining to identify accessory placement anodized or if customers opt for custom coatings.

The handguards are released in four lengths, 15”, 13”, 9”, and 7”. The handguard is 100% made in the USA from extruded 6061 aluminum. The handguards are hard-coat anodized black and feature a steel barrel nut. Mounting is extremely simple with common tools and the handguard features alignment tabs to ensure it cannot rotate during extreme use.

“We are thrilled to launch our next product line, keeping within our Company Ethos: ‘Quality. Innovation. Service.’ The new Streamline series keeps it simple while delivering incredible performance,” remarked Nathan Schueth, Director of Operations & Sales. “The handguards continue our push to make the best value products for the top and front of Modern Sporting Rifles. When customers think of uppers, think Faxon.”

The Streamline series is now available direct from Faxon Firearms and through its Dealer network. Launch partners include AIM Surplus, Recoil Gunworks, and Parallax Tactical

How long is the tab that over hangs on the upper I want to put one on a Billet upper but I don't think it would work.

Nathan,

Are there any pictures available of the barrel nut?

Quoted:
So, are ya'll done with Houlding?  I bought a billet upper and lower set along with two of the k mod hand guards before Faxon acquired Houlding Precision.  I absolutely love the hand guards and was hoping to acquire more for future builds.  The build using the billet receiver set turned out awesomely as well.  I hate to see the brand go away.  Maybe I have a collector AR now.

AMEN!  a non gas tube related barrel nut.  I think all rails should have these.  Indexing the barrel nut to the gas tube can be a serious pain.  Might have to give these a look.  Nicely done.
