16.5″ AIR-LOK Series M-LOK Compression Free Floating Handguard With Monolithic Top Rail (Anodized Gold)

Description

The AIR-LOK Series M-LOK Compression Free Floating Handguard is a US-made component engineered for the AR-15 platform, featuring a proprietary barrel nut and Monolithic Top Rail. Constructed from T6 aluminum with an Anodized Gold finish, this handguard utilizes a compression lock design to secure Top Rail over the barrel nut and compress it against the receiver using four screws. This method ensures a tight fit that stabilizes the monolithic Picatinny top rail while maintaining free-float status for the barrel. The handguard measures 16.5 inches in length and includes M-LOK slots on the bottom, left, and right sides, providing a modular accessory mounting ecosystem. The internal diameter is specified at 1.32 inches, accommodating standard gas tube configurations. To reduce overall mass, the body features triangle and diamond skeletonized cuts throughout its structure. The total weight, including the proprietary barrel nut, is 13.7 oz. The rear end of the handguard is equipped with machined QD swivel sockets on both the right and left sides for sling attachment. Key specifications include:
