Pictured here is the DPMS low pattern handguard on a Smith & Wesson M&P10. This 12" handguard weighs in at 12.4 oz with the barrel nut. The 15" is 13.3oz. Each handguard comes with one five slot rail section. Like everything MI it is made in the USA and is backed by our lifetime warranty.
These will be shipping in two weeks.

You guys are really movin' and shakin' with these new products. I was all set on your 15" SS model. Hmm. I'll have to rethink this. What I liked about the SS is that it came with a bipod stud. Will a native bipod stud be released at some point for this model? Or are we stuck with using a keymod rail section with a picatinny rail / sling stud adapter in able to mount a Harris? Or does someone already offer a keymod sling stud attachment? |

Nevermind. Looks like I found one. http://primaryweapons.com/store/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=532 http://primaryweapons.com/store/pc/catalog/5KMHBEA1_L_1.jpg That's it then. I'm definitely getting one of these new MI DPMS 308 K Rails in a 15". 
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Noveske and IWC both sell a small sling stud for the Troy rails that fits inside the hole. It also fits perfectly into a keymod hole, so for a few bucks you get a sling mount attached directly to the rail and the Harris bipod will bear directly against the rail, not an adapter. Other than using a rail adapter, there is no way yet to mount the Atlas bipod. I might be able to post a pic if you have questions still. |

I know exactly of the sling stud you speak of, for I have one. Actually, I bought it (prematurely) thinking I was going originally with a Troy 308 TRX rail, but have since opted for MI. Very cool. And your input regarding the bipod having a better "purchase" against the bare rail vs an intermediate adapter is spot on. Thank you! Alright, I am ALL IN! I want this new MI rail! |
