Choosing the Right M-LOK Handguard for Your AR-15

High-Performance AR-15 Rails for Every Build

Choosing the right free-float handguard is critical for balancing weight, ergonomics, and accessory real estate. At Grendel Hunter, we offer three distinct versions of M-LOK handguards to give you the look and functionality your rifle needs. All our rails are machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and feature a rugged steel barrel nut and retention system with anti-rotation tabs for a rock solid fit.  Because of the design, no shims, over torqueing or timing of the barrel nut are required.

I think the feeling and look of this fore end is the best on the market, it just fits and makes the rifle look darn good.

Perfect fit! Great design for a solid functional lockup. I am very impressed with the quality and design along with ease of installation. You can’t find a better fit/finish handguard for the price!

Which Grendel Hunter Handguard is Right for You?

  • Version 1 (V1): Our lightest option. Features an aggressive slant-cut front and a competition-style top rail (Picatinny at the front and rear only) to shed every unnecessary ounce. It has M-LOK slots on the bottom and sides, so you can attach a sling mount, rail section etc. 

  • Lengths: 11″ | 13″ | 15.3″ | 17″ |  19″

  • Version 2 (v.2): A balanced approach with a traditional squared-off front. Like the v.1, it utilizes a competition top rail for a slim, ergonomic “C-clamp” grip and has M-LOK slots on the sides and bottom. 

  • Lengths: 12″ | 14″ | 16″
