Primtime661's Review of Aero Precision M5 Gen 2 Enhanced M-LOK Handguard
So, let me just start off with the build quality of the handguard is what you come to expect from Aero, but here's my gripes.
1) First, the price of this rail should include a barrel nut.
2) You have to use Aero's barrel nut. And the timing on it has to be PERFECT!
3) I do not like how the rail does not match up perfectly- I ordered the matching M5 rail to go with my M5 upper for a reason. The gap tolerance should be on point.
4) and lastly, this is just a personal preference thing, but I do not like the little beaver tail or whatever you'd like to call it that comes over the dust cover. Obviously the dust cover is not obstructed, but imo it just looks weird.
I was going for a M110 clone on this build. I know Aero doesn't hold a candle to KAC, but I'm poor, so this is a "Gucci" build for budget.
