sorry if I missed it, but how much does the steel bbl nut weigh? Trying to figure out how much savings the Ti variant provides so I can add that info to the Parts Weights Database...

These look pretty nice. I appreciate that you make lengths that will work with a FSB as a lot of manufacturers seem to be abondoning that market. FSB cutout rails would be awesome but I’m likely in the minority.

I just found this thread, looks like I'm going to be ordering one for a build. I'm using a 10.5 inch barrel, does the 9.5 leave the threads exposed enough for a suppressor qd mount?

Do you make, or have any plans to make one of these that will fit the DPMS G2?
I have a SLR handguard on my G2 Bull right now, and while I like it better than the factory round one, I would like something a little better. This one looks exactly like what I am looking for. As far I as I know, the SLR handguard is a standard AR handguard, just the barrel nut is different. What is the outside diameter of your barrel nut? |
|
|
[#32]
Do you have any plans for making a version for the DPMS/AERO M5?
|
|
|
[#33]
I realize it's kinda MI's thing to put those little notches on the edges to save weight or more grip but man, I wish you'd make a line of these rails with it just being smooth.

I have an SP handguard that I would like to replace with one of these. Do the barrel nuts interchange? It would be awesome if I didn't have to remove it.
Nevermind, just answered my own question. No. |

Installed mine on my BCM middy today; seems really solid/durable for the money.... Review coming |

Any chance that Midwest Industries will resume the FDE option in the Combat Handguard?
I really like this guard over others but would rather have FDE from the factory than paint one. |
|
|
[#38]
We are considering a factory only cerakote option.

Looks great! Having used a couple Gen 3's, I like the improvements to this new line as well as the deletion of green loctite.

How timely I stumbled on this thread - thanks Troy for all the great info. I have a question for an upcoming build.
Because it is taller from bore centerline than below I'm curious if you can tell me whether it'll fit. It's the Superlative, .502 below, .757 above the bore centerline (on a .625" bbl.). Seems like it would fit given the pics I've seen of the CR handguard, but "seems" isn't a plan, so thought I'd ask. Appreciate any insights, thanks! Disregard, another forum member kindly measured their rig for me & gave me some numbers. It'll go no sweat. |

Just a update. We will be doing a run of cerakote magpul FDE combat rails. These will be shot with a custom made color that is extremely close to magpul FDE. The standard mix was not close enough so we took it a step further . These will be done in small runs and be a factory only purchased option. These should be ready before Christmas.
Thanks Troy MI |
