Hi!
I am putting together a 16" 9MM upper. It will just be for simple range work fun, nothing serious, or anything like a carbine course. I have been looking at a Matrix Arms 13" Keymod version, but since I want to put a vertical grip on it, I am concerned about the lack of anti-rotation tabs. Anyone have any insight on this handguard? Looking at E-Bay, there are a large number of Chinese knock-offs, but I have no idea what is worth bothering with. Any suggestions? Thanks! |

A $200 handguard will be reduced to the &70-125 range. Just scored one this morning and saved $125. One of the few things on EE that is a real bargain. |

Here's a review on your Matrix product:
http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2015/07/20/49-matrix-arms-keymod-handguards/ I also looked for some images of them, unfortunately the barrel nut looks almost polished smooth where the hand guard clamps on to it. This is an easy enough "fix" if you're willing to invest a few minutes worth of elbow grease to save a buck or two, but just thought I'd point it out to you. |
