some stay cooler and use different material others are the same and the manufacturer just wants to have you over pay for your product, you have to do the research

Your post didn't get deleted, it got moved.  For some reason mods aren't showing threads as moved, so people don't know what happened.

If all rail threads are going to get moved to the other section, it should probably be relabeled to avoid the continual confusion and thread moves.

Your old thread is linked below.....

I do not think that anybody here has ever done a side by side test on which hand guard stays the "coolest" after 200 rounds.

PLUS, "cool" is a subjective term.

To answer your question though, if you want "cool" then i would suggest you go with HGs which are more "vented". It will make for faster heat dissipation ... and you should also consider using a vertical fore grip.
