Hey everyone,

I came across this image, and can't for the life of me find out what handguard it is.
I don't know if it's custom, or if it is mass produced.
Any info would help.

saw one similar at the local gun show but didnt really look it over or no the manufacturer. Im sure someone on here has one unless its some cheap airsoft junk.

That looks like a short version of what I have on my space gun.  Look-up White Oak Armament.

Sorry but that just doesn't look like soft-air stuff crap, just look at the mans build, he has installed all sorts of nice parts to leave his forearm being a pos.  Just doesn't add up, too many dollars spent on what looks like quailty pieces, for christ sakes the man has a Larue upper on that ride.  Maybe that's a good place to start.  

It comes down too if you don't know what it is, it automatically is a POS....sorry that is just wrong.

Looks like a winner.

Looks like the WOA is lacking as many holes.  To me it looks like a well made one off.  Check out how thick it is and the beefy gas block.

Sry, you high or just dense? Note same 2-1-2 hole pattern and same mounting bolt location. Besides, WTF does the gas block have to do with it?

That is a nice rifle!   I agree, the tube looks like a WOA, but shorter than anyone they have advertised. The gas block looks like it's the older YHM-9381A.  I used one for a low profile that needed FSB scars hidden.  They have changed the style a little bit, more curves.

 Seems as though the ( WOA?)  tube is installed, on an odd angle then, normally the vent holes are on top.  This one appears to have more vent holes.
Looks as if heavy wall tubing was used and it and the FSB are well made.  Sry

I've never seen one in person, but every pic I can find has the holes offset like that.

You don't want holes on the top because the heat coming off the barrel will fugger up your sight picture. That's why the top is blanked off. Scope + hot barrel = mirage.

Yep, get that.  That's why I could never understand why it was, or has been done.   Thanks for the insight.  Amount of holes still don't add up.
Doesn't mean RRA didn't change something.   I think the RRA is a good call.
