Midwest Industries 12.625" Ultralight AR-15 Handguard - Black Hardcoat Anodized Aluminum/Polymer, Picatinny/M-LOK$288.95
Availability: In Stock
The Midwest Industries Ultralight 14" AR-15 handguard delivers a genuinely lightweight free-float platform without forcing you to choose between weight savings and modularity. Built from 6061 aluminum with a type 3 hard coat anodized finish, this handguard sheds unnecessary ounces—tipping the scales at just 8.4 oz—while maintaining the rigidity and durability serious AR shooters expect. Whether you're building a precision rifle, a competition gun, or a hunting carbine that spends time in the field, the Ultralight gives you the flexibility to accessorize without penalty.
Free-floating design isolates the barrel from contact with the fore-end, a proven way to improve consistency and tighter groups. M-LOK mounting slots run across seven flats along the handguard's length, giving you clean, tool-free attachment points for lights, lasers, vertical grips, cable management, or other gear. Short Picatinny rail sections at the 12 o'clock position reserve space for backup iron sights if you want them. Titanium barrel nut and mounting screws handle the job without adding weight, and the inclusion of a 5-slot M-LOK rail section and barrel nut wrench means you get what you need to install and configure right out of the box.
Pair of QD (quick detach) sling swivel sockets built into the handguard offer dedicated mounting points that don't rob you of rail real estate. The anti-rotation design keeps everything where you put it. Made in the USA with the kind of attention to detail that separates field-proven gear from the rest—Midwest Industries has earned its reputation by building small parts that add up to a rifle that just works.
