Q
Wesley Gulick, member, from TX, United States, asked on January 24, 2020

Would a suppressor fit inside of the rail?

Expert Answer
A
Answered by Armando R., Gear Expert, from IL, United States, on March 19, 2020

That completely depends on what suppressor you are trying to fit. This handguard has a 1.72" inside diameter which means the suppressor would need to be smaller in diameter to fit in the end of the handguard.
