| Can someone that is running the JP/VTAC modular handguard post a pic? I also would like opinions on them, pros and cons. I like the fact that it's smooth (no robo-porcupine to hold onto), and I can place rails only where I need them. I just noticed on JP's website that they are all sold out right now, so this may be a moot point for awhile. |

VTAC on my new noveske upper. I'm in the process of duracoating the handgaurd OD green. Should be done in a few days.
This is the rifle length handgaurd on a 14.5" with pinned vortex. http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee107/Crimecrusher/IMG_1026.jpg http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee107/Crimecrusher/IMG_1027.jpg |

How does that handguard compare in weight to a basic alum. freefloat tube? I'm trying to decide on a replacement for mine and the JP/VTAC was on the list.
I like the slots in the tube it looks like that would allow for a little better cooling than what I have now or something like the Clark tube. |

They are great handguards... Rifle length on an 18" barrel http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj62/ZZIXX/ar429a.jpg Long time since I saw that picture. That is one badass looking rifle. I would refinish the scope to match though |

i have read that the jp handguards heat up pretty quick. i like the look and the compatability of the handguard and i am thinking about purchasing one in the near future. can anyone give me any feedback on how quick it heats up and what you do to negate the effect?
thanks... |
