Trying to find the slimest free-float, M-Lok-compatible handguard out there.  This is for a dedicated CMMG 22lr upper.  Need a 7-9 inch tube that is not a 1.35" diameter.  Just trying to make it look better and not have the "hot dog in a hallway" style to it.

BCM. Super easy to install too. I have a 13 in on a decided AR22 build and the thing is slim and light.

I like this one from TACCOM.

How long is your barrel?  I sent you a PM.

@boomboom - Could not find the one you were talking about.  I think I have seen the one you are referencing.  I can't find the one I am thinking about, but it was a BCM as well.

This is the one I would LOVE to find in a skinny or hell even the same one, just within reason $ in a 9.5" or shorter.  This is after all a 22lr upper.

I made this from an MI barrel nut and a carbon fiber tube bonded to the INSIDE of the barrel nut.  I had Paladin Machine Shop Service make an aluminum end cap to finish it off.  The one on the right is a 9.5” Right to Bear barrel.

The blaster on the left is a Canto Arms barrel nut with a CF tube bonded over the barrel nut extension (a shroud which screws into the barrel nut).

I like those flash hiders. Who makes them?

KAK.  They offer several versions of this style. Not slotted with toothed end, pictured, slotted with toothed end, and slotted with smooth end.  I have requested a smooth end and not slotted but they have no interest in doing a V4.
