Some minor dings, but otherwise solid - Midwest Industries AR-15/M16 SLH Free Float Slim Line Handguard

As others have said in their reviews, mine came with a few cosmetic dings. Because of this, I rated it as 4-stars instead of 5. For a handguard in this price range, I was a little disappointed to see that. I'm sure Midwest Industries would have made it right, but the imperfections weren't bad enough to warrant going through the return process. I used some Birchwood Casey Aluminum Black to touch it up and moved on.

Besides that, this handguard is well-built. It's rigid, perfectly machined, and feels like quality in the hand. The lockup is very tight on the barrel nut, and the new torque plate of this generation will ensure it stays put. The spacing between the anti-rotation tabs was a little too narrow for my upper receiver, so a little filing may be necessary to make it fit. I don't see this as a bad thing -- I'd rather it be a little too tight than not tight enough. This handguard will not ever move. I love MI products.
