Aero really needs to make it a point to say that this is only compatible with the m4E1 ENHANCED upper. They even should bold it and upper case it. I don't even see it listed in the description here at ALL. The point of me buying this handguard was so I didn't have to buy an extra barrel nut, but then when I get the handguard I found out you need an extra enhanced version. The company can't be clear in their description and advertising. There's a reviewer trying to put that all on me as the buyer for not doing enough research. That's a bunch of BS.. when you read a description for a product that piece of information is important to be listed in there, I'm curious to where the other reviewer got his proprietary information. He probably learned by ordering the wrong parts like I did lol.

Guys I see some people have concerns over the barrel nut. Please understand this is the ENHANCED hand guard. It mates to the ENHANCED upper receiver directly which serves as hybrid type system. The barrel nut / locking system is part of the upper itself.

I love the larger Aero Precision Gen-2 M-LOK handguard — it looks fantastic and has a solid, premium feel on the gun. Gives plenty of room for tucked suppressors or bigger linear comps and cleans up the profile nicely. My only gripe is the barrel nut (BAR nut) is never in stock, would’ve been perfect as an all-in-one buy. Otherwise, great piece and highly recommend if you like a roomy, sleek handguard.

Really like the look and feel of this Aero Precision handguard — clean design, lightweight, and feels solid once installed. Only downside is that it doesn’t come with the barrel nut, which would’ve made it a perfect package. Still a great choice if you’re already running Aero parts.

The Aero gen 2 handguard is a thing of beauty - particularly when paired with an Aero M4E1 ENHANCED upper. When using with the standard M4E1 upper - it can be very challenging if you do not have the AERO BAR nut. If this is the case - only buy the Aero handguard when the BAR barrel nut Is included.
Pros:
- Awesome when used with Aero M4E1 ENHANCED UPPER
Cons:
- A real challenge to find AERO BAR nut fit using with standard mil spec upper

Love the rail but selling the rail without the barrel nut required to use it then selling the barrel nut for an additional 55$ is dirty work

Never disappointed by Optics Planet and Aero Precision. Optics Planet ships fast and Aero Precision part are consistently well made!
Cons:
- Amount in stock should be listed foe everything.

Pock up is solid to the upper and perfectly aligned utilizing the tabs. Tucks a can nicely and the annodized ODG is spot on. Loce the feel and features of these handguards and the built in QD sockets. Just wish they all either came with a BAR nut or Aero would produce them accordingly. Happy with my OP purchase tho.

Fits the BAR nut perfectly, mounts solid, looks great, tucks my can, & has the tabs to line up to the upper perfectly.

FDE color is perfect to match MSR from Aero. Enhanced design provides perfect fit to enhanced upper receiver. Fit and finish are top quality.
