They are wide, heavier than many of their brethren, and can take quite a beating. Your topic is covered much better in this section of the board.

The thread- FAQ: The Big Thread On FF & Railed Forends- under the link Stickman provided should give you enough info to keep you busy for a while.
I have a FIRSH on an upper I recently purchased from the EE. I have no other experience with other types of railed handguards, but these certainly seem well made, but to the point Stickman noted, it is wide. This might be a moot point with a forward grip, but something to note anyway. |

Thanks Stick, I didn't realize we had that forum!
 Read that sticky, not too much info but enough. I've seen these at gunshows a few times, and they did look nice. Only thing I didn't read(well it was an 8 page sticky so I could've missed it) was if they sit level with the flattop upper. |

Sorry about the picture quality, but this is a old picture of my duty weapon. I carried a FIRSH on it for years, and never had any problems. Make sure you use loctite on the 2 small screws that tighten it down, and you won't have any trouble from it.
Yes, they are level with the flattop receiver.  Here is another one....

A way too often overlooked rail system option for those budget minded people.

It doesn't have enough snob appeal for name oriented people.... |
