[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Upgrading Handguards/Weapon Light: Help me out.

Posted: 7/13/2005 4:14:52 PM EDT

I currently have my Bushmaster M4A3 setup as follows (picture included):

Stock Bushmaster M4A3 16"
ARMS #40
and EOTech 512

I want to upgrade to railed handguards, a Gladius Night-Ops light, an appropriate mount for that light, and a Tango Down vertical grip.

My question for all here is: What do you think are quality railed handguards and a good mount for the Gladius that will work with my rifle, with no other changes?

I've done some research, but my primary concern is making sure I get something that has been proven to work, and that I can install myself with, say, nothing more than a handguard removal tool and basic tools.

I am aware that my three-point-sling may pose an issue, and I am considering getting a single-point. However, if you know of a way for my current sling setup to work, let me know.

Thank you, and here's the pic of my current setup.

If you want to do it yourself, I would suggest the YHM 2-piece handguards. They require no special tools and simply replace your existing handguards. They are very solid on my rifle

The Midwest Industries rails are incredible! They are the next closest thing to the RIS/RAS systems. CNC'd aircraft aluminum with laser etched T markings and a great finish. Best part is they are $200 less than the KAC's! Mine fit very tight on an LMT upper.
