They are literally doubling down on everything we keep telling them we don’t want.  Is there nobody at IWI that thinks this is a bad idea or maybe they should offer actual IWI designs firearms that people were excited about. They have literally went from one of the most respected firearms manufacturers to a joke in many people’s eyes.

16" ... YHM R2 and YHM R9 (mostly the R2 and the R9 sits on my MPX full time) ...

For those of you that have the Athos Arms handguard, how is it holding up?  Any issues with heat?  Which handguard do you have?

I have the one without the rails and I’m pretty happy with it. Mine came damaged though, looks like the thin part chopped off when being removed from the printing bed. I’ve emailed Athos numerous times and haven’t had a reply.

Mine was one from the initial batch.
