bought the son a Colt M4 OEM 2.....turns out he prefers the standard m4 handguards that you would have on a standard Carbine model with the full size front sight.

for me i prefer a flat top and to have my cheek against my stock, not trying to look over the front sight post w/ my red dot....but to each his own......

anyone know of a rail cover which some what mimics the look of the standard M2-M4 front hand guard look/feel

i have the Troy Rail covers on my Ruger SR556 and they feel the same size and give a solid look.....but dont have the ribs like a factory M16

we have not picked his rail yet....so it can be Keymod or Picitanny grips

i personally am not a fan of the thin keymod rail....too thin for me...i like the thick picitanny with covers........on my M16a2 with a keymod i put a vertical foregrip

thanks

KAC panels will do it.

Shouldn't this be in the AR forum?

Needs to be in the AR Discussions forum, you will get good answers in that section.
