If you're looking to upgrade the handguard on your AR, these Magpul handguards are a great option. They offer a more comfortable and customizable grip compared to the classic clamshell handguard that usually comes with ARs. The M-LOK slots make it easy to install a light mount, and the handguards are easy to install overall. They also come in a variety of colors to choose from. I've had good experiences with Magpul grips and stocks as well, so these handguards would be my first choice for an upgrade.

I recently purchased this Magpul handguard to upgrade my Palmetto State Armory Gen2 AR10, which did not have a Picatinny rail and had a standard, mid-length handguard. I also bought an 11-slot rail section to mount an angled Magpul handrest. Both items arrived quickly and were well-packed. It took about 30 minutes to install them, and I didn't need any tools other than a 1/8" allen wrench for the screws in the rail section. I did spend a few minutes studying the directions and checking the fit before mounting. The upper Magpul handguard fits into the front mount by sliding it into a small channel on the triangular edge of the weapon. It may seem like it doesn't fit at first, but once I lined it up properly, it snapped into place easily. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this upgrade and the ease of installation.

In my opinion, Magpul has the best-looking and best-performing products for their value. This handguard may require the use of a delta ring tool to assist with installation. I found that the tension on my AR-15 was manageable without a tool, but the delta ring on my M&P 10 was too difficult to compress for the slightly thicker Magpul handguard. Once installed, the handguard is very snug and rigid, which makes the whole firearm feel more solid. The thick heat shield and dissipator provide adequate protection. Overall, I'm very happy with this handguard.

The style, fit, and function of these handguards are outstanding and superior to standard (non-floating) handguards. The M-LOK feature allows for numerous customization options, and these handguards meet the high quality standards that are expected from Magpul products. Overall, these handguards are an excellent choice for anyone looking to upgrade their rifle.

This handguard fits my MP10 perfectly! A gunsmith was required to install it due to a minor modification that needed to be made. However, once installed, my Magpul M-LOK bipod fit perfectly. The price for this handguard was great, especially considering that it was under $35. The stock handguard on my rifle was cheap and had no attachment points, so this upgrade was a welcome change.

This midlength handguard allows me to mount accessories to my AR that makes the whole thing look like it should have come that way from the factory. The installation was tight but it fit like a glove.

I love the look. Since it is an m-lock, it is easier on the hand than quad rail handguard. I keep mine pretty clean, I don't have all kinds of stuff mounted, but I have the option.

Bought the mid-length Magpul moe M Lok handguard and installed it in an AR Stoner barrel with the A2 front sight post. It was tough to put on, but worth it. LOL, I don't think I'll be able to take it back off. It looks good, though and I think it will last the lifetime of the rifle.

After reviewing a YouTube video on installation, using a delta ring tool, and a few convincing pats with the heel of my hand, it went right on. Not as simple as the regular MOE handguard - you'll need a bit of patience. Once installed, it does give a better feel, and it does provide a mid-length feel to a carbine rifle. I also put a section of MLOK rail to mount a TLR-4. So far, so good. The bad part was I couldn't use my gas block front sight with it. So my irons are now sitting in a drawer. I figure the EOTech 512 is sufficient along with the TLR-4 for home defense use.

This Magpul midlength handguard is awesome and compatible with most retro-fit piston systems, except for the Osprey system. Need to machine heatshield about 1/4" off each side to allow the Osprey's op rod slide smoothly.

This Magpul handguard is a great upgrade for anyone looking for something that's a step above the factory AR handguard but doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Feels great in the hand and feels like a handguard that costs 3 times the price.

Looks really nice on my Windham Weaponry SRC .308. It took 2 minutes to install, and the FDE looks awesome. Fit is perfect.
