The Yankee Hill Machine AR-15 Carbine Length Quad Rail Handguard brings serious modularity to your mid-length AR platform. This 2-piece aluminum handguard swaps in for your factory plastic panels, giving you four picatinny rails for mounting lights, lasers, vertical grips, and other combat- or duty-ready accessories. Whether you're running a defensive rifle, setting up for three-gun, or just want a handguard that grows with your setup, the quad rail design lets you build exactly the configuration you need without guessing.
Built from aircraft-grade aluminum and hardcoat anodized to military spec matte black, this handguard is tough enough for serious use. The modular 2-piece design means installation is straightforward—just remove your stock panels and drop these in. That simplicity also extends to the removable bottom rail: pop it off whenever you need clearance for specialty accessories like grenade or flare launchers, or to accommodate shotgun slings and other tactical gear.
At 6.625 inches total length and 10.464 ounces, it's light enough to keep your rifle nimble without sacrificing the real estate you need for your optic setup or support gear. Carbine-length AR shooters have been counting on Yankee Hill Machine for decades, and this quad rail carries that reputation forward.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this handguard fit my AR-15?
This quad rail is designed for AR-15 carbine-length platforms, including Colt Carbines. If you have a mid-length upper, this should work; if you're running an A4-length or rifle-length handguard, you'll need a longer model.
How do I install the Yankee Hill quad rail?
It's a simple swap: remove your existing plastic handguard panels and insert the 2-piece aluminum quad rail in their place. No special tools or gunsmithing required—it's a drop-in replacement.
Can I remove the bottom rail?
Yes. The bottom rail removes easily, giving you clearance underneath for grenade launchers, flare launchers, shotgun hardware, or any other accessory that needs that space.
What picatinny accessories can I mount on this?
The quad rail has four picatinny rails, so you can run lights, lasers, vertical grips, rail-mounted sling attachments, or any other standard picatinny-compatible gear. The modular design means you can customize it exactly how you want it.
