Handguard suggestions

Post by Niceguy » Sun Aug 14, 2016 6:30 pm

Needing a free float guard for my 10.5" AR9 pistol. Needs to be at least 1.38" ID to clear my Octane 45 and flash can. Thinking with the flashcan I can go 12" but probably not 13" without the can being to deep in the guard. Having trouble finding one I like the looks of with this ID and length. Suggestions?

I wonder if you can get the DD that goes on their integrally suppressed rifle

Anyone have experience with these? I like the looks of both of the 12.6" ones and they have a 1.75" ID.

I like the Midwest handguards.

Thanks for the heads up.. I just saw that also. I need 1.5" ID to clear my suppressor. That one is 1.5" OD. Decent deal and GREAT shipper to deal with though.
