What’s the best bang for the buck 15” M-Lok Rail? Looking for something slim and lightweight to replace my old magpul hand guards on my Spikes AR15. I’d like to stay under $150 if possible but $200 is max.

STNGR makes a decent rail, I have two and they're solid.

I really like the HG's from UnbrandedAR.com

Unbranded AR 15" HG

They are out of stock right now but sign up for alerts.

I think they make them for Expo Arms too but with a full top rail.

Expo Arms 15" HG

Primary Arms has these in stock now too.

Midwest industries is the best bang for the buck in my opinion. They are high quality rails at a great price. Second to those in the same price range is LaRue. Though LaRue isn't 15".

I'm not sure why these AT3 Hanguards are not more pupular here.  I've never seen a bad review of them.  I have a few different brand rails on the budget end of the scale.  ALG are heavy and get hot fast.  I'm going to grab my second 12" AT3 rail some time this week.  They are identical to the lightweight midwest rails.  Probably come from the same factory.

I recently put an Midwest Ind Combat rail on my 12" gun.  I absolutely love it.  Ill be ordering two more as soon as they are back in stock.

Here’s a convo we’ve been having on the best value handguards:

Is there a better rail for the money than the ALG EMR series

Just switched to the new AERO/BA Atlas 15" mlok rail.

The Atlas mounting system is amazing and the rail is the perfect weight, and feels great in the hand.

Expo Arms Combat is made by CMT and is a hell of a deal imo

Regular Expo Arms is made by Unbranded AR

My pick for VALUE BUILDS are the UTG PRO Handguards.  I have 2 now and they have been great. I may order a third for a build.

The STNGR VLCN looks like a nice one.  Just not a fan of the logo on it but still might give it a try.

I've been wanting one to replace the Centurion Arms C4 quad rail that came on my BCM upper but they are hard to find in stock.

Odin Works.  Not necessarily inexpensive though.

Get on the STNGR mailing list, blems have been appearing quite often.

Looks similar to the ALG V2X. Not a bad option IMO

I am building a lighter upper for my Colt 6721.  I like the rail a lot.

That's a very nice looking rail. Do you know if the barrel nut is steel or aluminum? It has a pretty low max torque.

I would honestly have to get it out and look.  I ordered from Rainier Arms.  Took it out and inspected it for damage and put it back in the box.  Haven't put it all together yet so I just keep the stuff in the box so stuff doesn't get lost.
