Aero Precision M5 Gen 2 Enhanced M-LOK Handguard Up to 10% Off w/ Free S&H — 5 models
This handguard is typically for the Aero Precision Enhanced uppers. For mounting to a DPMS upper, like the one you inquired about, you will need their barrel nut.
Please note that you need an M5 upper or an adapter for this rail to work. Comes with small torx mounting screws. It's the quality you would expect from Aero. I plan on building a second upper in 6.5 and will use an M5E upper with this rail.
This thing is just absolutely freaking beautiful! I cannot wait to take it out and shoot it again. It's very nice feeling on the hands when shooting and my wife doesn't want me to return it so this is just fantastic.
Very good fit and finish. The mounting system is unique and very easy to mount directly to the upper receiver. The handguard makes no contact with the barrel at all and supposedly helps with accuracy.
Very solid handguard. Mounted on an Aero M5 enhanced upper. Will also fit the standard M5 upper with a bar barrel nut. Hand guard is very snug with no deflection from attached bipod I put on. FDE finish matches the upper perfectly.
Help support American manufacturing! Marked models of this product have gone through rigorous review and been certified by the manufacturer as Made in the USA.
