BN's Review of TRYBE Defense AR-15 Extra Lightweight M-LOK Handguard w/ Cut Away Rail
I believe other reviewers have also noted some of the same problems but I will re-iterate my problems just in case.
First off, the handguard feels like it is heavy duty and the paint matches the FDE of Magpul and other manufacturers. It is MLok and the openings fit various MLok attachments perfectly. The top rail seems a bit out of spec as getting sights mounted was tricky. The rail appears to be a bit too wide or the angle of the rail cut is off a bit the sights had to be tapped a bit to get them on.
The other bad thing is the handguard comes with a barrel nut and two screws to mount the handguard onto the nut. The problem is if you do not have a wrench to fit the barrel nut, Trybe did not include one like most others handguard makers do. The nut is 30mm and can be tightened down with an adjustable wrench but you will need to actually make sure the to use a proper wrench to get it torqued properly. The screws are hex and the handguard just slips onto the barrel nut and then gets tightened to it.
The other problem it has is there are no anti-rotation tabs on the handguard and I worry it might shift after time with usage and handling. Only time will tell I guess.
