Angstadt Arms Ultra-Light 5.5" Free Float Handguard
The Angstadt Arms Ultra-Light 5.5" Free Float Handguard stands as a testament to modern engineering, merging aggressive design with practical functionality. This handguard is crafted for those who demand uncompromising performance without excess weight.
At its core, the handguard features a slim profile with an internal diameter of 1.375 inches, thoughtfully designed to accommodate sound suppressors up to 1.40 inches in diameter when paired with an exact length 6-inch barrel. This makes it ideal for use with both .223/5.56 and 9mm calibers.
The installation process respects simplicity; there’s no need for timing adjustments—just a standard wrench will suffice to secure this piece firmly in place on any compatible upper receiver, whether forged or billet.
- M-LOK Mounting Interface: Positioned at the crucial angles of 3, 6, and 9 o'clock for versatile accessory attachment.
- Continuous Top Picatinny Rail: A mil-spec feature enhanced by lightening cuts ensures strength without unnecessary bulk.
- QD Swivel Mounting Points: Dual points provide options for sling attachments tailored to your operational needs.
- Aesthetic Details: Engraved proudly with the Angstadt Arms logo as a mark of quality craftsmanship.
This handguard's versatility extends across all AR platforms except .308 caliber rifles and comes complete in three distinct finishes: Mil-Spec hard coat black anodize, Flat Dark Earth (FDE), and Tactical Grey Cerakote—all ensuring durability against harsh environments while maintaining visual appeal.
