Great handguard at a great price
Love this handguard and have bought several. Like Brandon A's review mentions the first few I bought had a fairly rough finish which I smoothed out with some very fine sandpaper. The most recent one I received has a bead-blasted finish (I think?) that I much prefer. It almost feels soft to the touch and holds oil really well.
USGreat Lightweight Handguard
I snagged the 15 inch for $40 last week and am impressed. It's very light and plenty stiff given the thickness. Two things to note. The barrel nut needs a 30mm wrench/crows foot that is not included. Also this is a pretty narrow hand guard. The only negative I found is the rough anodizing finish. Some chrome polish and a microfiber smoothed it right out.
