[ARCHIVED THREAD] - What hand guard is on this gun?

Posted: 10/11/2017 6:55:22 PM EDT

I found this picture on the net. Can anyone tell me what handguard is on the gun? In the post, the op says it is a MI 4" quad rail. After a some googling it appears that he meant Midwest industries. However I went to their web page but don't see this handguard let alone anything that is 4" long....

It is a Midwest Industries piece, but I believe (could be wrong) that they've been discontinued.

Osprey thanks for the reply. That's what I was afraid of! Do you know of any other rails which are currently obtainable and similar?

There aren't a whole lot of 4" rails. The only one I have seen is the SLR Solo 4" Intrepid Rail. Kind of spendy, though.

Depending on where the vents and cut-outs are, you can cut a handguard off almost anywhere you want to.

I've used a mitersaw with the blade mounted backwards.

This is my YHM handguard - I don't think they're available any longer either.

Thanks all. Looks like I will need to go on the hunt for a 4" hg. Midway has one but I'm not sure how it compares to the ones that aren't in production any longer. Will have to check into that.
