Notes:

There are 3 rough iterations of the Mod H:

1)First handful were built at SOTIC armory directly by MSG Holland and another gentleman, using COTS parts ordered from Brownells etc. The one we can see closely had a black Colt Keyhole forged upper, black PRI Gen III handguard rifle length, and a black PRI Recce Rail. The barrel was unmarked, with a heavy/SPR profile, mid-gas, and OPS profile, and coated black. Only 2 of this type have been photographed, one of which may have actually had a Noveske barrel.

2)The second, larger grouping of Hollands were rebuilds of original SPRs. These can be distinguished as they all have FDE Gen III handguards, and retained the upper and lowers from the SPRs, often identified in that the upper and lower have matching worn rattlecan paint but the handguard is unpainted. Often the optics, suppressor, etc matched the upper/lower. These had the Noveske FDE barrels. Non rattlecanned ones you can identify by their uppers being Colt AF forgemark or Armalite (haven't seen one, but likely in the mix).

3)The third iteration apparently were assembled by Precision Reflex, with them supplying new parts for the entire upper. These had Keyhole forge contract uppers coated in FDE, FDE Gen III handguards, FDE Noveske barrels, contract M16 BCGs. These likely were supplied with the Recce Rails, maybe with PRI back-up irons as well (though apparently rarely even used).

I'm glad to see this thread. I am building a Holland inspired rifle. It won't be an exact clone for logistics sake. It will be using the same Surefire muzzle devices as my M4A1 so I can use the same suppresor, so I won't pollute this thread with pictures of it.

how hot does your pri rail get? on how many rds?

I shot maybe 6 mags yesterday on mine and it got noticeably hot (without a glove).

I'm thinking my shaved down FSB is still too big and contacting the rail somewhere and heating it up.

Depending on how fast you shot the 6 mags through I would expect any handguard to heat up pretty fast.  I use mine for more precision work so I can't give very good knowledge of how fast it heats up, but I would expect with as big as it is that it heats up slower than a lot of others.
