Which railed handguard works best with after-market accessories(lights,grips,sights, etc...)?
How about plastic vs. aluminum? First Samco M33 & M44?  Opinions, anyone.

The Samco's are well made and solid.

It is only VERY seldom I will recommend the Samco unit. They are plastic rails that I just cant see holding up too well over time. You put a lot of pressure on a forward grip and I am pretty confident that these plastic rails will wear and/or deform after some hard use.

and I could never recommend using optics on anything other than milspec aluminum rails that are free of any wobble, flex or wiggle.

If you are asking for the BEST system, the answer is easily one of the ARMS SIR systems, one of the Knights systems or even one ofthe PRI carbon fiber systems.
