The Apex Handguard System, designed for shooters by shooters, significantly improves the AR-15 design by addressing not only the original short comings, but also offering refinements beyond other aftermarket products. A superior design results in optimal comfort, versatility, and durability for target, hunting, law enforcement, and military use. It's modular and 100% made in the USA.


KEY BENEFITS:

GatorGrip
Modular
Trim
Lightweight
Versatile
Comfortable

*Offset clamp allows for a trimmer, more comfortable hand guard, free-floating the barrel to maximize accuracy and heat dissipation while providing excellent air movement over the barrel and gas tube

*Unique modular design allows rails to be mounted where needed, as needed, and a comfortable gripping area maintained elsewhere eliminating unnecessary weight

*Four built-in quick detach sling swivel mounting holes eliminate the need for a rail-mounted sling swivel

*Easily mounts to barrels with a permanently attached muzzle device


FEATURES:

*MIL-SPEC hard anodized aluminum, matte finish

*Innovative mounting system is secured to the factory style barrel nut already in place on most rifles

*Asymmetrical mounting system allows for a 1/8" smaller diameter hand guard than other tubular designs

*The structural integrity of the tube is maintained by regularly bridging the accessory and ventilation slots

*Slots at 45 degrees and 315 degrees encourage air movement over barrel and gas tube while serving as accessory rail mounting positions

*Mounting slots give you control on exact placement of optional rail pieces for mounting accessories

*Available rail positions exceed "Quad Rail" hand guards in versatility by offering eight positions around the tube at 45 degree intervals

*Top mounting holes accommodate top rails: 1.5" and full length 7.125"

*GatorGrip pattern milled into the hand guard grasped by the forward hand provides a positive, yet comfortable control surface and enhances cooling by increasing surface area, as well as complimenting receivers where the front of the magazine well has been cut in a similar pattern

*Hardware coated to resist corrosion in 1000-hour salt spray tests

*The Apex Handguard System including hardware is made in the USA
