These will be released shortly after shot show. Contrary to some shit talk on another site these will not be a year out. Thank you all for your interest. Troy MI Originally Posted By Midwest_Ind:

| Troy, I'm a little upset because last year I asked you if this was ever going to be a feasible project to produce a handguard and you shot it down with a definite 'no'. I don't know why you changed you mind on this but I am grateful that you came around on it. As upset I was when you said no, I will hold no grudge and look forward to when they become available because I am going to be a definite buyer. Bill Geissele himself had promised me that he would produce a handguard but it has yet to come to fruition and I don't think it ever will. So, do you think that if this handguard becomes a major success, would you consider developing other parts for the rifle? Would it be possible to develop a lower made from 7071? Honestly, we're all looking for any aftermarket support and I know myself and all these other ACR owners want anything that will improve or enhance the potential of the rifle. Regardless, this handguard means a HUGE step forward in improving the rifle and I hope that our purchases turn into a 'thank you' for your effort. |

Even though I think the RPM ones LOOK nicer, this is a 100% improvement over contacting a guy via instagram in Canada who may or may not respond to your messages...
If you're listening, MWI, I (and I think others) really like the step-aspect (reveals GB, then longer underneath) of the RPM vs. the 90* dead-stop front end. |

You can pretty much guarantee that MI is going to engineer the rail the right way with aesthetics taking a back seat yet still coming out as an extremely appealing product.
So long as it doesnt make the front end of the gun into a box, im on board and will order from the first batch pending availability of Coyote handguards. Thanks for getting involved in this MI! |

These will be available on our site before anywhere else. I do not know how many distributors will pick this up due to the current state of ACR production.
thanks Troy MI |

Heck look at Marvin Pitts, his response time and customer service is not good. He does great work so we just deal with it. Before you go bashing dudes maybe you should just say thanks to the guys who are doing great things for our rifles!! |
