12″ AIR-LOK Series M-LOK Compression Free Floating Handguard With Monolithic Top Rail (Anodized Royal Purple)

Description

The 12″ AIR-LOK Series M-LOK Compression Free Floating Handguard delivers a rigid, monolithic top rail in a lightweight platform designed for 5.56 Caliber and 9mm Caliber builds. The compression lock-down design eliminates rail shift by securing the handguard against the upper receiver with four screws, creating a tight fit that supports a continuous Picatinny top rail extending from the receiver. The proprietary barrel nut slides over your barrel, and the handguard compresses down against it for a stable, free-floating mount.

Machined from T6 aluminum with an Anodized Royal Purple finish, this handguard features triangle and diamond skeletonized cuts throughout the body to reduce weight without sacrificing structural integrity. Total weight including the barrel nut is 8.9 oz. M-LOK slots run along the bottom, left, and right sides, providing multiple attachment points for accessories while keeping the top rail clear for optics and backup sights. The 1.32″ internal diameter accommodates most standard barrel profiles and gas blocks.

A machined QD swivel socket on each side of the rear end allows quick sling attachment on either the right or left side, eliminating the need for additional QD mounting plates. The 12″ length extends to the mid-length gas system on a standard 16″ barrel, offering full coverage and control. The proprietary barrel nut is included, and the compression lock-down design maintains alignment under sustained use. US made, this handguard is built for builders who require a secure, lightweight free-float system with Monolithic Top Rail and versatile M-LOK mounting.
