Big Bore from United States, IN Public Profile

OK all you fan boys of the big names, you are not going to like what you read here. I know a lot of people turn their noses up at UTG/Leapers items but this hand stop is fantastic. The finish is flawless, it has minimal weight for its size, which is not overly large, is contoured nicely to keep it from digging into your hand during recoil, and is as well made as any I have examined, including the $50 big name hand stops.

The UTG hand stop barricade rest attaches easily and fits the Midwest Industries G3 UL KM octagon shaped 8 sided handguard like it was made for it.

Putting your hand too far forward will ruin your day, and a blocky sharp-edged hand stop will equally make its impression if it gets slammed into your knuckles. The UTG Hand stop/barricade rest will prevent you from getting your fingers in front of the handguard, provides a good barricade rest, and will not cut/nick/bruise you if you are shooting with your hand up near it and shooting something that has a little more recoil than the 5.56.
