Midwest Industries Combat Rail 7" Handguard M-LOK

The Midwest Industries Combat Rail 7" Handguard M-LOK is a purpose-built AR handguard designed for shooters who want lightweight modularity without sacrificing real estate for optics and accessories. Built from 6061 aluminum and finished with type 3 hard coat anodize, this one-piece rail system delivers the durability you'd expect from a Midwest Industries product while keeping your rifle's profile trim. The 1.3-inch inside diameter keeps things slim and maneuverable, whether you're running a short-range carbine or setting up a precision rifle platform.

Modularity is the name of the game here. Seven M-LOK mounting flats run the length of the handguard, giving you flexibility to dial in lights, lasers, bipods, and other gear exactly where you need them. The full-length Picatinny rail at the 12 o'clock position provides a rock-solid mounting surface for optics, and two integral QD sling mounting points mean you can sling up without hunting for real estate on your rifle's body. The included 5-slot polymer M-LOK rail gets you started right out of the box.

Installation is straightforward thanks to the included mounting hardware and barrel nut wrench. The handguard ships ready to mount on any AR rifle platform, and the integral anti-rotation torque plate (machined from 4140 heat-treated steel) ensures zero creep during extended shooting. Made in the USA with attention to detail—Midwest Industries doesn't cut corners on the small stuff.
