Midwest Ind. SS Gen 2 1.5" OD feels awesome in hand, caveat: the long ones will flex so if you plan to use irons for other than back-up, or a laser, accuracy from them will not be all it can be.

Noveske NSR is the best rail on the market as far as I'm concerned.

The NSR is only .02" thinner than the MI. Pretty sure the MI is lighter, too. All the 9" NSRs I'm finding are around $250, nearly $100 more than my 10" MI. Don't get me wrong, I like the NSR, but I don't like it $100 more than the MI.

The CMR is the thinnest handguard that I'm aware of. O.D. of 1.56" and I.D. of 1.12" the troy alpha has an inside diameter of 1.37" for reference. There are a lot of rails out there that have inside diameters larger than the outside diameter of the CMR.
Just make sure your gas block is compatible. I used the MI micro and it fits ok. It's not cheap, however. On a budget I'd get the MI gen2 SS keymod if its available yet. |

My second rifle is far more practical, economical, and useful. It's not, however, tactical. And I'm ok with that. |

I would think that if the OD is too small it's going to get pretty hot?

I have always built/bought cheaper stuff, but it ends up working great... reliable and accurate. This last build, I decided to go "premium" on everything. Dollars spent definitely did not equal similar increases in accuracy or reliability.
