Troy Industries Alpha Rail 11" Aluminum Black Anodized Handguard for AR-15/M16

The Troy Industries Alpha Rail 11" aluminum handguard for AR-15 and M16 platforms gives you a lightweight, durable rail system built for shooters who demand both function and longevity. This black anodized handguard replaces your factory forend with a modular aluminum design that's ready for optics, lights, grips, and accessories. Whether you're building a precision rifle, a lightweight hunting setup, or a versatile tactical carbine, the Alpha Rail delivers the rail real estate and durability Troy is known for without unnecessary bulk.

At 11 inches, this handguard spans most of the receiver without extending into extreme territory, giving you plenty of mounting options while keeping your rifle balanced and handy. The aluminum construction is hard-anodized for corrosion resistance and durability in the field—it'll handle hunting season, range use, and rough handling. The black finish works with any build aesthetic and won't draw attention if you're serious about functionality over flash.

The modular design means you can configure your rail system exactly how you shoot. Add a bipod for precision work, a light for home defense, or keep it clean and simple for a classic build. This is the kind of handguard that works as hard as you do—no marketing gimmicks, just solid aluminum and proven mounting.
