Top notch equipment
Nothing but good things to say about the kmr alpha and bcm.the rail went on perfect. Wow does it go on tight so you had better have your big boy pants on. This is my second kmr alpha and I'm getting ready for a third.

Super light weight and strong!
Love it and will probably buy 5 more . It's perfect for a light rifle for competitions all the way to my SPR builds. Probably the best rail system out there right now. The machining is superb, makes the tail fit like a glove. And the locking system they did is genius. You won't be disappointed with THIS rails.

Love the handguard
I love the handguard came exactly as expected fast shipping had a gun smith put it on other than that it's amazing very light weight and optics planet beats everyone's prices. I would reckoned it to anyone I have it on my 300 blk out and absolutely love it

Absolutely the best handguard in my opinion if you are looking for a super slim and lightweight keymod handguard.
Probably one of the lightest I have ever used. Fit and finish is excellent as with all ADE products. Handguard is rock solid and tight fitting. If you are thinking of purchasing this handguard then think no more. I can guarantee that anyone will be 100% satisfied. Combine ADE quality and Optics Planet service and it is a winning combination every time!!!!!

Excellent Fit & Finish
Excellent service from Optics Factory. Shipped quickly, arrived quickly. ADE quality and attention to detail evident from the packaging of the product. My first "gunsmithing" went smoothly. I found the instructions provided very easy to follow. My only suggestion would be to add a small tube of the recommended barrel nut lube to the kit as they do with the thread locker.

super light weight
this is the great slim hand rails on the market. though it is not a light weight the magnesium version still incredibly lighter than a troy alpha rail or of course a quad rail. I just installed it and could not be happier.

Great looking and solid made handguard.
Installing the handguard on the barrel nut was extremely snug and took some oil, tapping and heating with hair dryer. After about 5-10 minutes of messing with it, finally made it on.

Tight, nice rail.
Its a tight fit and ade will tell you that. Need a heat gun to install. Nice rail, the exact length I was looking for and its thin, not too fat even with Ergo Keymod covers installed. Rail is perfectly straight with the upper receiver. Worth the money. I looked long and hard for the right hand guard, this is it.

best keymod i can find for this price
I used this rail on a 10.5" 300 Blackout upper. So far this is my second ade Rail. I really like how solid the mounting solution is. As long as you use a heat gun or hairdryer to heat up the rail interface you'll have no trouble installing the rail over the barrel nut. The included accessories are also a big bonus!

One of the best handguard options out there
One of many ade handguards that I own. All have been trouble free. Mounting system is easy to install and provides a solid lock up. Lightweight and looks good if that's a concern for you. Highly recommend for all types of shooting,

Great Value
I was a bit hesitant to order this at first based on the price of some other hand guards ($200+). But my options for a longer than average hand guard were quite limited and the reviews were good. I am NOT DISAPOINTED! It fits well and is stiff and strong. the fit and finish are quite nice and match my Aero upper. Lets be honest, how it LOOKS is the most important thing here (ha) and I think it compliments my 22" stainless barrel quite well and gives my AR15 a bit of an .308 look with the added length over the normal 15" guard. Happy I bought it!
