Is the wide handguard worth the extra 7oz of weight. I have one on my PTR-91, but dont shoot it as much as my 32.
the slim handguard (with heat shield) gets really hot after just 2 magazines. is the heat dissipation of the wide guard worth the extra weight?  Attached File |

Quoted: is the heat dissipation of the wide guard worth the extra weight? IMO, yes. I can mag dump this on FA and it stays cool.

Well,
You have both at hand, there is only one way to find out if it's a good solution for your 32. |

Its not so much the extra weight, its the extra cost these days. The 91 length wide handguards are damn near unpossible to get these days. I had a bid on one on gunbroker recently and that bad boy ended up getting sold for Buy-it-now for over $600.

I have a wide HG on my PTR-91 and am thinking about putting it on my 32 as I shoot it more than the 91 and putting the HG from my 32 on my 91 (It has a shield in it as it is not the oem HG) @giantpune |
