Yankee Hill 5300 KR7 Keymod Handguard AR 12.6" Rail Aluminum Black
I love this handuard. It was very easy to install and very light weight. I only gave it 4 stars because the muzzle end is not threaded and it cannot accept the yhm handguard endcap. Otherwise a great product.

I purchased this to finish up a ground up AR-15 build with my son. The handguard is well built and is easy to install. The install required a special tool from YHM but the tool worked very well. The handguard is not ultra thin but not too bulky - took the rifle to the range and the handguard felt solid; it does not feel loose and I do not suspect that there will be any issue with it loosening with the way it is connected.. Is a little bulky from some with smaller hands but I thought it felt good.
Pros:
Easy to install
feels solid
Good Materials
not too big but not too slim
Cons:
needed additional tool
a little challenging to line up
Best Used for:
practice
professionals
Range Time
AR-15 Build

Got this handguard for a SBR in 300 Blackout with 8.5" barrel and a Silencerco Omega sound suppressor. I wanted the handguard to protect the can but leave enough protruding in order to periodically remove it. The large diameter of the can required a handguard with a large inner diameter, and this 12.6" YHM model fits perfectly in every way. Rock solid mount. Couldn't be more pleased.......even with one that costs 3X more.
Would recommend: Yes

This handguard is light weight and easy to mount. I really like the keymod feature so I can mount attachments on the 45 degree sides of the handguard. It made attaching my flip up sights and tac light a breeze on the 45 degree angle without having to purchase more angled mounting rails. I would highly recommend this item.
